A prayer that engulfs me:
Father, I thank You for giving me strength to love even when my emotions are rattled. I thank You for giving me the ability to control myself under stress and not let the storms of this world throw me about. I pray for the wisdom to be the teacher You are molding me into and I pray I do not drive people away from You while trying to instruct. You have brought me through hell and back. I've stared into the abyss and You've pulled me back from the ledge. I have learned from my mistakes and have been taught many lessons. The greatest of which is Love. The love You have for me, the love You've given to me for others, and the power of Your love, most of all. I pray that everyone who reads about me and those who remember me when I'm gone all say one thing, that I loved people and there was no doubt in their minds that You were with me. I want You to be the focus of my life and for You to be obvious to others through me. Thank You for Your love. Thank You for Your patients with me though the years. Thank You for developing me into the Godly and Righteous man You made me at my rebirth. I give to You my mind to mold and my body to work through, for it isn't I who lives but You through me. I love You, Father, and I can't wait to see what You're going to do next.
Amen.
