Lord

Lord, Today forgive me for I have not done all I could to stand. I have been slack in my walk for you and have not been diligent in pressing my way through. Father God, have mercy on my soul today; and permit me to come before you begging for your forgiveness. Let your spirit speak to me through all my days, endlessly invoking the will of the Lord upon me. Allow me the strength I need to bring my mind and body under submission to Your holy spirit. Hold fast to me Lord, for sometimes I feel as if I am slipping away from Your wonderful promise. Lead me all the days of my life oh Father God, so that I am forever and always in Your will. Help me to walk in the word, stand on your promise, and speak life to everyone I come in contact with. Oh Father God, when times of peril and disruption come show me the brightness of another day. Please speak to my mind even as I sleep, feeding me promises only You can fulfill. Continue to mend and heal my heart that one day I will be the perfect image of your grace and mercy. If it was not for Your love and devotion that makes me whole I would have been dead long ago. For Your undying love and endless mercy, I am thankful. For the peace that You have given me in spirit and in truth, I am grateful. For the times You have shielded me from the worlds’ persecution, I am grateful. For all the times You are everything I need in spite of my wrongs, I am eternally thankful. Father God, I know, I don’t always give You the praise and glory You deserve, and for that I am apologizing because You are my back bone and without you I can not stand. Please find it in Your big heart to accept my apology, for if You are not pleased when you look at me my whole world would crumble. I will forever be in Your debt, and I will serve you into infinity and beyond. Lord You are the head of my life and I surrender all I have to give to You and Your will. Where I am week, make me strong. When I fall, pick me up. When I often fall short or fail, continue to speak words of encouragement to my spirit and the very fiber of my being. Lord I love you and I always will. Daughter to Father
