A PRAYER TO GOD!

Please make my soul like a dry reservoir. Let it be always thirsty for Truth, like the dry earth welcoming the new rain that comes down from the heavens. Fill my soul with what my heart yearns for most, the very real presence of your Holy Spirit to comfort me in times of distress and grief, to convict me of my own sinful ways that separate me from You, and to guide me along the narrow way. Continually enlighten me with the Truth and guard me from the grasp of the evil one.When my heart becomes troubled by the evils of this world, and all my personal cares and concerns of the realities of the present begin to weigh me down, help me to quickly flee to You for the protection of my soul. In times of personal crisis, grant me the courage to stand against the tempter to disavow your everlasting love and faithfulness. By Your grace and mercy I pray I strive to become a faithful soldier of the cross borne by Jesus Christ, Your only Son and my Lord! All this I ask you complete in me by your generous grace and mercy. AMEN
