Paause for Prayer: SATURDAY 9/9

Lord,

when someone really ticks me off today,
   give me a patient heart...

when someone angers me today,
   give me a peaceable heart...

when someone badgers me today,
   give me a calm heart...

when someone pulls my chain today,

   give me a heart that counts to ten...

when someone corrects me today,
   give me a humble heart...

when someone annoys the heck out of me today,
   give me an easygoing heart...

when someone confounds me today,
   give me a wise heart...

when someone's boring me to tears today,
   give me an attentive heart...

when someone provokes me today,
   give me a prudent heart...

when someone pushes my buttons today,
   give me an untroubled heart...

when someone nags me today,
   give me a tolerant heart...

when someone one teases me today,
   give me a good-humored heart...

when someone hurts me today,
   give me a forgiving heart...

when someone forgets me today,
   give me a resilient heart...

and when someone just plain needs me today,
   give me a gentle, generous, gracious heart,
      a heart just like your own, Lord...

Amen.
