A Prayer For Growth Through Service
Precious Lord Jesus, Wonderful God, Empowering Holy Spirit…
My Lord Jesus,
You who are my only source of life in this world,
I bear so little fruit for you.
In ways I do not understand, I try but fail to do as I want to do.
In whatever fashion you would will it, turn me into your hands, your
voice, and your heart for others.
I do not relish the pain of doing what you want me to do.
However, in all the ways you need me to reach out to others, turn my life
over and help me be your humble child.
Grow me when I do not want to grow.
Inspire me when I do not want to be inspired.
Touch me when I do not want to be touched.
Direct me when I do not want to be directed.
Teach me when I do not want to be taught.
Help me to see you and know you more.
Help me to realize your will is the way to heaven and everlasting life.
Help me to see my human way is the way of death and destruction.
Help me to see your divine way is the way to prosperity.
All these things I humbly pray, in the name of the Father, the Son, and
the Holy Spirit.
