A commitment prayer

A  commitment  prayer

 

 

 

I come to you today, O Lord,

To give up my rights,

To lay down my life,

To offer my future,

To give my devotion, my skills, my energies.

I shall not waste time

Deploring my weaknesses

Nor my unfittedness for the work.

I acknowledge your choice with my life

To make your Christ attractive and intelligible

To those around me.

 

I come to you for spiritual preparation.

Put your hand upon me,

Anoint me with the oil of the one with Good News.

Save me from compromise,

Heal my soul from small ambitions,

Deliver me from the itch to always be right,

Save me wasting time.

 

I accepted hard work, I ask for no easy place,

Help me not to judge others who walk a smoother path.

Show me those things that diminish spritual power in a soul.

 

I now consecrate my days to you.

Make your will more precious than anybody or anything,

Fill Me With Your power!!!

And when at the end of life's journey I see you face to face

May I hear those undeserving words,

" Well done, you good and faithful servant".

I ask this not for my self

But for the glory of the name of your Son.

 

In Jesus Name

 

 

AMEN! :)
