Lord Jesus,
teach me to be sweet and gentle in all the events of life;
in disappointments,
in the thoughtlessness of others,
in the insincerity of those I trusted,
in the unfaithfulness of those on whom I relied.
Let me put myself aside
to think of the unhappiness of others,
to hide my little pains and heartaches,
so that I may be the only one to suffer from them.
Teach me to profit by the suffering that comes across my path.
Let me so use it that it may mellow me,
not harden nor embitter me,
that it may make me patient, not irritable,
that it may make me broad in my forgiveness, not haughty and overbearing.
May no one be less good for having come within my influence;
no one less pure, less true, less kind, less noble
for having been a fellow traveler in our journey toward Eternal Life.
As I go about my rounds from one distraction to another,
let me whisper from time to time, a word of love to Thee.
May my life be lived in the supernatural, full of power for good,
and strong in its purpose of sanctity.
Lord Jesus, Friend and Brother, may I know you more clearly,
love you more dearly, and follow you more nearly day by day.
Amen.
Im going to add..
Please forgive me for being an over-reacting overly dramatic, pompous jerk to people I care about, like I was yesterday with Myhim.
Peace
Happy week
Keren
