“Write your own prayer.”
The result was my Prayer of Jeanette:
1. Change me to think and behave, but especially to love,
like You;
2. Use me to create that which glorifies You and enlarges
others’ hearts;
3. Love me in ways only You can love, so I know it’s You;
4. Protect me from darkness of thought and word;
5. Empower me to achieve far more than I alone am capable
of, so others will acknowledge You and love you;
6. Make me fruitful—full of fruit—colorful, sweet and
nourishing;
7. Prosper me—cause me to go forward, increase me—so that I
may impart more than I take. In Jesus’ Name, so be it.
Have you considered writing “The Prayer of (your name)”?
Just as writing our goals helps us achieve them, writing a life prayer may
enable us to see how our loving Father works in our behalf year by year.
