The Power of Prayer

 

   
                
  
HOW'S MY DRIVING? CALL 777- GOD.
 
 
How are we doing with our New Year's resolutions? What have we promised?
To Eat less, Exercise more, Spend more time with God; being Faithful, Honoring our prom­ises to Support our church and Lift one another up?
If you've gotten off your well-intended path, it's NOT too late to start over ­- You see, God is the God of second chances. He knows our human weaknesses, temptations, and yes; even our indifferences.
 
Some of us are procrastinators (perhaps tomorrow), some rationalizers (just this once won't hurt) and oth­ers...well just don't want to!
 
Who are we really hurting? OURSELVES!
 
God has given us many blessings. No matter what we have to offer in thankfulness IS our spiritual promise ­made in honesty.
 
Might I suggest a few thoughts through prayer?
 
Prayer: Dear God,
You know me and love me better than anyone else-You created me to be a person of integrity, compassion, and mercy.
Help me when I stray off the path that You intended for me so that I may see Your Light shining, The Way in Truth.
Strengthen my faith in myself and others to see the goodness within and claim it.
I choose to keep my promises... even if/when I have to share.
Thank You for Your love. Even when I don't deserve it, You don't give up on me.
I want to do better and be better. Please show me how.
I invite Your Holy Spirit to be with me and guide me.
I believe in You, God.
Thank You for seeing the possibilities in me.
Amen.
