Prayer of Jabez

Oh, that You would bless me indeed,
and enlarge my territory,
that Your hand will be with me,
and that You would keep me from evil,

that it may not harm me.





Christus vincit! Christus regnat! Christus imperat!

Gratitude

Thank you Lord God for your grace,
For your bounty,
I feel you in my heart, Your warm presence
fills it to overflowing
Thank you
You have spoken Lord
that You will care for me
that You will not drop me
that You will provide for me
that You will look after my cares
that You will provide for my needs
I am grateful Lord for all these that you
whisper in my heart
I trust in all You promise Lord
I am grateful that I am the abject recipient of your grace Lord
Thank you for everything Lord
I woke up with a troubled heart Lord but
Giving You praise and thanksgiving cleared the dark murmurings of my heart
Thank you Lord
May all that I think, do, act, and say be for Your greater glory
May all these be my offering to You, my act of worship
and may You find them a sweet oblation worthy of Your love and grace
Command Your unfathomable blessings on me Lord
I am ready to receive and always ready to give
that I, in my own way, may become a blessing to others

Worship

I wake up not feeling as great as I want to yet 

I thank Thee oh God

I stood up and felt the burden of my infirmities,

yet I still thank Thee oh Lord

I open my doors to let into my room 

the wonder of Your Creation

and I thank Thee of Lord 

that you have given me another day

full of joy, wander, abundace, prosperity,

A day not like any other day

A day full of blessings

A day ever better than yesterday

Lord, may I live every second of this day

in total worship of your goodness and greatness

I offer my every thought, every word, every act, every deed

in Worship of YOU.

May you find my life today worthy of offering to You 

in Worship

 

Metanoia

Good morning God of all creation!

Blessed are you for all your creation

May my worship be worthy of the life you have given me

Grateful am I for the simple things in life

For truly the most basic things in life give me joy 

more than any thing I could conjure to 

commemorate and celebrate my so called achievements
they will never compare  

The serenity of slowly breathing in the cool crisp air of your creation

The song of water cascading on stones, falling on rocks

The embrace of cool breeze on warm skin

The clear cool light of the morning pushing back the curtain 

of the night, 

of the soul,

of the mind, 

of the heart.

Truly I give my praise and worship to you Lord

Blessed are you Lord God of Creation! 

I live for Thee alone, in worship and in praise,

Forgive me for my transgressions

Forgive me for every moment 

that I lose sight of the everlasting prize
Forgive my pride and folly
that I thought it was only me and my hands
for all that I have in life

that I listen to my own sweet desires 

of partaking my bitter poison

that I trusted only in myself

that I believed that I alone dictate my future

Thank you Lord God for all these follies
and the realization that I have been worshipping
my own paper moon

Metanoia

Thank you for the seed of change planted in my heart
The heart which is the ear to the voice of God

No change can be truly wrought by mind and logic alone
Only the heart can move an immoveable mountain of attitude
Only the heart can overrule the mind
The heart that hears the voice of God
The heart that moves one 

to action,

to change,

to believe, 

to act, 

to accept,

to trust,

to give up everything to you Lord

Thank you for the seed of change
for in having it I truly own up my choice

to glorify, bless and thank God

Metanoia

a change of heart 

a gift from God

to act 

to move

it sets free will in motion

in accordance with the dictates of one's heart

to glorify the Name of God

to bless Him

worship Him

to leave behind the clutter of a life I thought magnificent

I thought I was the master of 

to leave behind my intoxication with the 

belief that I stand astride the universe
Thank you lord for making me realize
that the sweetest achievement
is simply to give my best in worship of your Name

Christus vincit! Christus regnat! Christus imperat!
