Dear Lord,

I pray for the strength
To face the trials placed before me

I pray for the power
To walk away when I need to

I pray for the wisdom
To make the right decisions

I pray for the patience
To take things in due time

I pray for the grace
To walk this road before me

I pray for the courage
To ask for Your guidance

I pray for the compassion
To put myself in another's place

I pray for the humility
To give glory to You forever and ever

Amen

Lovely prayers, thank you for sharing...

A prayer worth reading and definitely worthy of memorizing.  Beautifully spoken.

A life with love will have some thorns, but a life without love will have no roses.
