My Prayer

"Lord, help me to glorify Thee; I am poor, help me to glorify Thee by contentment; I am sick, help me to give Thee honour by patience; I have talents, help me to extol Thee by spending them for Thee; I have time, Lord, help me to redeem it, that I may serve thee; I have a heart to feel, Lord, let that heart feel no love but Thine, and glow with no flame but affection for Thee; I have a head to think, Lord, help me to think of Thee and for Thee; Thou hast put me in this world for something, Lord, show me what that is, and help me to work out my life-purpose: I cannot do much, but as the widow put in her two mites, which were all her living, so, Lord, I cast my time and eternity too into Thy treasury; I am all Thine; take me, and enable me to glorify Thee now, in all that I say, in all that I do, and with all that I have."

Thank you for posting that. I had been wanting to ask you what devotional you use. Sad to say, I've never had one, and I wanted a good one. Not one that would be fun, but deal with the real stuff, do you know what I mean. I want to be a "real christian", not a superficial one. I am still learning, and I am so excited about this website I've found through this comment. I read this mornings, OUCH, be content in whatever state you find yourself. Wow, is all I can say.
Thanks again. Have a blessed day.
