Lord, keep me from the selfish callousness that places "I want" over "they need."
Lord, keep me from trying to find my joy in the worthless nothings of this material world.
Lord, keep me from the spiritual pride that prays for judgment on others instead of interceding for pardon and mercy and a repentant heart.
Lord, keep me from the impudence that quenches the Spirit's conviction in my soul, that tries to quiet His loving prodding with the false lie that "I'm fine the way I am."
Lord, help me to be absorbed in the music--the psalms, hymns, and
spiritual songs--that fills my thoughts and my heart with the Spirit's
presence.
Lord, help me to willingly be a pillar that those I love can rest on, draw strength from, and thus, become all that you intend for them to be.
Lord, help me to be the enemy of indifference.
Lord, help me in the gloom, in the darkness, in the shadows to be your flickering candle.
Lord, help me to love good by seeking first the kingdom of God day by day.
May you be the Lord of my life as Your love and the sense of Your Presence keeps me from having a divided heart. May I never forget that divided loyalty is disloyalty.
Keep me.
Help me.
I can do nothing without You.
Lord.
