You,
Teach us to be worthy of Your everlasting
kingdom, oh Lord our God. We are imperfect creatures perfectly made, struggling
through our fallen state daily, longing to be in Your presence, for our home is
with You. Teach us to put our insecurities and feelings of unworthiness aside. Remind
us that these voices that like to remind us of all the things wrong about us
are simply distractions and have no place in Your kingdom.
We ask for humility, and we are humbled by
You. Help us to accept it with grace, oh Lord. Remind us daily that we do not
exist in a vacuum. Open us up and make us willing to accept the advice and
guidance we need to keep on growing in You. Give us the spirit of discernment
to be able to find You in the cacophony. Give us the patience to follow even
when we do not know the end. Assuage our fears and give us the clarity we need
to act boldly. Give us the discipline not to waver but to open ourselves up to wisdom
and knowledge that can only come from You.
We put our trust in You. We put our faith
in You. We put our hope in You. Amen.
