Good morning, good God!
So today, Lord...
I offer you the musings of my mind's imagination
and pray you’ll enlighten me
with insight, truth and prudence...
I offer you the words I speak, the words I write and post,
and pray you'll sift them through the sieve
of clarity, charity and wisdom...
I offer you my soul's desires, my passions, thirsts and hungers,
and pray you'll tend and tame me
with integrity and grace…
I offer you my deeds, the things I do, day in, day out,
and pray you'll teach my heart to give
with selfless generosity…
I offer you my attitude, my feelings and my moods
and pray you’ll heal and lift me up
with hope, in peace, to joy...
I offer you my weaknesses, my failings, faults and sins
and pray you’ll pardon all of them
with mercy undeserved…
I offer you today, Lord, the whole of who I am:
I offer you today, Lord, the whole of who I am:
bend, mold, shape and change me,
recreate me in your love…I offer you the week ahead, its trials and its troubles,
and pray you'll stand right by my side
to hold me fast and faithful to your love...
Amen.
