God, help me to be honest with myself.
Help me to search out the dark
corners of my mind and soul,
to better serve You.
Discipline me, God, in whatever way You deem necessary,
so that I can
serve You without reservation,
for pleasing You is my desire and my duty,
and
I want to be faithful.
Please give me the courage to be who I truly am,
rather than
pretending to be, or trying to be,
what others say I should be.
Please grant me the honor of intimacy with you.
I know that you know
me better than I know myself.
Strip me of my foolish ego and false-pride
and allow me to see what I really am.
And as I peel off the layers of disquise please help me to accept me
as I am,
as You have made me, and want me to be.
Help me not to judge
me.
And please teach me to see You as You really are,
and ignore what
others say You are.
Because it is not my ways or thoughts that are important,
Master, but
Your ways and Your thoughts.
It is all about You. You are my life,
my
breath, and my ultimate desire.
Amen
