A devotional morning prayer
11th July 2008
Grant, O Lord my God, that I may never fall away in success or in failure, that I may not be prideful in prosperity nor dejected in adversity. Let me rejoice only in what unites us and sorrow only in what seperates us. May I strive to please no one or fear to displease anyone except Yourself. May I seek always the things that are eternal and never those that are only temporal. May shun any joy that is without You and never seek any that is beside You. O Lord, may I delight in any work I do for You and tire of any rest that is apart from You. My God, let me direct my heart towards You, and in my failings, always repent with a purpose of amendment.
-St. Thomas Aquinas-
" O what peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear, all because we do not carry everything to God in prayer"
-Joseph Scriven
"Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them"
-Psalm 199:165 KJV
O Lord please guard my Heart, May I seek nothing else but the Purpose of thy Will in my Life. Amen
