A Dautgher Tallks to her Father..........

My Heavenly Father, I come before u shamefaced and disappointed in myself. I have not been spending enough time with you and for that I'm sorry and I humbly ask your forgiveness. I ask your strength and guidance to be poured out in my life so that I will do what it is you want me to do. I want you to be my heart's desire; I want to crave your presence constantly. I am reaching for greater heights but I am constantly distracted by material things and the opinion of those around me. I am afraid to shine sometimes because I do not want anyone else to feel threatened by the power I know resides in me. I am grateful Lord that each day you have been speaking to my heart, uttering statements of approval and affection. help me to believe and trust fully in your acceptance of and love for me. Thank you Lord for the opportunity to start a brand new semester. I embrace the knowledge and learning I will achieve. ooh Lord I am bursting with excitement and I know that can only come from you. Help me to remember why ti is that I am pursuing social work. Help me to realize that my knowledge must first be applied to my life but it must also be passed on. Help me to take advantage of all the occasions to help those around me. Send them to me Lord and I know you will direct me as to how exactly to help and who to point them to. Help me to be kind to my classmates and if I see them struggle, help me not to be blinded by ambition or revel in their struggles but help me to lend my skills and wisdom. Be with my family, there are so many dynamics present that hinder sometimes our ability to be closer, help that to change and help me to play my part in making that change lasting. Help me to be the one to reach out (provide the money to buy the credit please :) ) and help me to love them even when they hurt my feelings. Thank you for the lesson I learned during the summer sessions and help me to remember them. I am learning to love myself weaknesses and all because I know my worth is found in the indelible truth that I AM YOUR DAUGHTER..yaay!! I love talking to you God so help me to not to make this a once in a week thing. Help me to revolve my life around you, help me to make YOU my all in all. Thanks for listening to me. Thank you for everything in Jesus' Name,
Amen.
