Dear God,
Please grant me wisdom.
Teach me to love those whom I find hard to love.
Teach me to love those whom I think are against me ( and in reality may not even be against me).
Teach me to not be too sensitive and think that I am not wanted just because people aren't around me.
Teach me to long for you presence and acceptance more than that from men.
Teach me not to be proud just because I know You,
And think that I am 'superior' in my understanding of life.
Teach me to see the need in other's lives and meet it.
Teach me to have relentless belief.
Open up the doors for me to reach out to them.
Unlock the locks in their hearts and draw them to you.
Give me a spirit of understanding and courage,
Also give me faith,
to know the right thing to say,
And say it boldly.
Help me to allow your spirit to work through me,
that I may share a piece of your heart with them.
Lastly,
strip me of all feelings of
competitiveness,
insecurity,
and jealousy/envy.
This boiling cauldron of foolishness,
bubbles an impending calamity.
Instead,
let the living water from you overflow from my cup.
Let it overflow and flow into the lives of those around me.
God, let me be who You want me to be.
Let me be Your clay.
In Jesus name I pray,
AMEN.
