Loving Father Thank You

Dear God, my Loving father, my Creator,
You are so good.
I do not understand You.
But I love You
I know that I feel your Love.
Your kindness is so painful to me
because I am so unworthy of You -
Your Mercy – I am so unworthy to see
the beauty that you have created all around me.
O Sweet Jesus, Son of my Father
God the Redeemer – Praise be Your Name!
You who died and suffered 
to treat me with such mercy.
So many times I have sinned
and thought cruelly of my brother –
And I have misused Your Grace.
O Lord, my Savior
How can I ask for forgiveness?
It is too bold to even ask again and again
That You forgive me always
and give me such blessings that I am so undeserving!
Amen.

And save such as have a contrite spirit."

  HUMILITY PRAYER  

Dear God,
Help me 
to be compassionate when I want to get angry, 
judgmental or self-righteous.
Let me have mercy and love in my heart as you have been to me.
  I remember that I did nothing to give me this beautiful life
 you have given me today.
  I was broken down useless- who had no will to live. 
  Yet, you restored me - forgave me and 
enabled to find the way to enjoy a happy life. 
  Through your mercy 
You restored me to the happiness I had as a child.
 Please God, may I be as merciful and
 as loving to others as you have been to me. 
My Jesus Mercy, forgive me for I have been self righteous, 
uncompromising, and unkind to my brother.
  Humble me and lead me in Your Way 
so that I can be an example of Your Way of Love! 
Thank you Lord.
Amen

A Conversation with God  

Why am I going through this pain?
Why am I so miserably despondent?  
Why do you favor others?  
How much longer must I wait?  
Why do I keep playing your foolish game when I always lose?  
Why did you create me to be so miserable?  
Why must I always be of service to others?  
Did you save me to put me through this pain?  
Why is it that love doesn’t really love me?  

~ GOD REPLIES  
“Come close to Me”  
“I long for you to touch ME”  
“Do you Still love Me?”  
“Say it so”  
“For longing for you I need your Love”  
“Listen to Me My Child”

all the days of my life” Psalm 27:4

Why God Blesses Me

As a human

    I see what God has done for me and I have seen what God has created.
 For that I am most grateful.
    I must do God’s will  by accepting all those who I meet without making judgment.
  That all that happens to me, to them, and in this world is because of 
some Divine Plan I will never know.
  God is the judge of everyone. God has a plan for all of us. 
      With each day before me, I pray for God’s Will.
  Peace and Tolerance is God’s will.   
"O Lord, such knowledge is too wonderful for me;
 it is high, I will not ever understand it!”
Psalms 139

 
Forgive Me For the Harm to Myself

Dear God,
You have blessed me with a wonderful body 
and mind and spirit and I have misused this blessed gift
 God, I am sorry for what I did to myself.
O God please forgive me.
I misused what was beautiful and good,
and it profited me nothing.
I am in pain, I am disillusioned,
Love this person I was born to be.
O God, it is written that you are merciful,
Take me into your warm embrace and hold me in
Your Everlasting Love.
I give you back my soul, my body, my heart, my mind - 
all of me good and bad; 
past and present.
So that you can heal me.
I promise that I will live again according to Your Law
which is Love, Honesty, Purity, and Giving.
Father, I am not worthy that you should receive me,
But say the Word and I will be healed.  
Amen.

“If any man say, I have sinned,
 and perverted that which was right,
 and it profited me not; God will deliver his soul 
from going into the pit, 
and his life shall see the light.
His flesh shall be fresher than a child’s; 
he shall return to the days of his youth.
 He shall pray to God and 
God will look favorably unto him 
and shall see his face with joy.”  Job 33

  For Peace  
Lord, grant me the heart  
That can be loving  
God grant me the peace  
That I may make wise choices.  
Grant me O Lord your guidance  
So I may be rightful in thought  
Rightful in action  
Rightful in decision.  
Grant me O Lord  
The state of peace  
Of calmness where I can  
Hear your voice and  
Feel your Presence  
Let me be in constant contact  
With your Peace O Lord  
Inside of me  
May Peace reside within me.  
Amen

robs me of peace.

Of all those who I have judged harshly  
are your children, My Father,

And please grant me the gift  
to see them as my brothers and sisters  
And that to overlook  their wrongs as  
You my Father have overlooked mine.

My Heart’s Desire  
by Sri Ramakrishna  

Dwell, my mind within myself.  
All that you seek lies hidden  
Deep within your heart.  
O God who answers every prayer  
Oh, when will dawn for me that day of blessedness  
When you who is all Good, all Beautiful, and all Truth  
Shall enter into my heart?  
O Light of my heart!  
O flame of my fire!  
O Thou King of Kings!  
My unquiet mind shall be made speechless by thy sight!  
And I shall be filled with heavenly happiness!  
And there at your beloved feet shall I renounce my life  
And I will at last gain my life’s goal:  
I shall enjoy the bliss of Heaven on earth!  
Then shall I see thy Glory, pure and untouched by stain;  
And as darkness flees from light, so will my darkest sins  
Desert me at thy dawn’s approach.  
Kindle in me, O Lord the blazing fire of faith  
To be the guiding star of my life.  
Oh Life-Saver of the weak, fulfill my one most desire!  
Then shall I bathe both day and night  
In the boundless bliss of thy eternal Love  
And utterly forget myself O God attaining Thee.

May we create for You  
The most beautiful gift

Be for you

So that I appreciate my time on this earth  
Which you have granted me.  
May only what is Good,  
God, be my Guide.

   the Breath of life  

  THE CALLING  
Embrace and grab on to the Highest and  Almighty Power of the Universe 
  and He which created thee will never let you go!  
Bathed and cloaked in His Divine Light  
With His invisible Strength and Protection, 
you will enter into the Holy of Holies within  
and will through His Power bring great things to pass for you and countless others.  
These things are promised if you keep the lord’s Commandments;  
And Love the Lord thy God with all thy Heart.  
He shall never leave you.  
His Light shall shine ahead for you, leading you,  
opening up doors never before opened. 
Because with the Lord all things are possible and
  with man who thinks he has all power  
All things that are impossible remain so, but not so with God.
He will move obstacles which stand in your way of his will for you.  
He will bring those who will assist you  and be helped by you  
As you journey in His Holy Power doing His work.  
Love will be the guide  
Love will be your companion  
Love will be your attraction  
Love will open up all the doors and pave the way  
like parting the Red Sea,  
He will move you peacefully and ever so gently  
Through your obstacles and your enemies shall be repelled for  
God is your shield!  
A mustard seed of faith shall move the mountains  
and Love will transform the entire universe at your command!  
So it is written:  
Be it done according to Thy Word, O Lord. 
 

The Prayer of St. Francis

Lord, make me an instrument of Your Peace.  
Where there is hatred, let me Love,  
Where there is injury, let me Pardon,  
Where there is doubt, let me have Faith,  
Where there is despair, let me bring Hope,  
Where there is ignorance, let me shed Light,  
Where there is sorrow, let me provide Joy.  
O Divine Master, grant that  
 I may not so much seek to be consoled as  
 to console others,  
Not so much to be understood as  
 to understand others  
Not so much to be loved as  
 to Love others  
For it is in Giving that we Receive,  
It is in Forgiving that we are Forgiven,  
and it is in letting go that we are Born again.  
Amen.  

THIRD STEP PRAYER
TURNING OUR WILL AND LIFE
 OVER TO THE CARE OF GOD

GOD, I OFFER MYSELF To THEE
To build with me and to do with me  
 as you will.  
Relieve me of the bondage of self,
that I may better do your will.  
Take away my difficulties,  
That victory over them may  
bear witness to those  
I would help of your power,  
Your love, and your way of life.  
May I do thy will always!  

To Be Gentle in Spirit  
Lord,  
May I speak  
With the gentleness of Love  
Let me speak with understanding  
And hope  
Take away all thought of prejudice  
And judgement  
Take away doubt, anger, and  
Self searching motives  
Purify my heart and mind  
That my soul may touch  
The souls of others with thy Love.

WE LOVE YOUR CREATION

Oh!  
I Love all  
Your children, your beasts, and  
All which grows

We praise  
Your Glory,  
Your Beauty  
in the mountains, the skies,

How I praise in AWE  
To see, to feel, to hear, to touch  
The Face,  
The Beauty

  “O give thanks to Him that stretched out the earth;  
 that made great lights; the sun to rule by day;  
the moon and the stars to rule by night; he causes  
the vapours to rise from the ends of the earth;  
 make  lightnings for the rain; and brings the winds.”  Pslams

When Things Don’t Turn Out My Way !  

Dear God,  
I get frustrated and lose faith when things don’t turn out my  way.  
Somehow, all works out for the best.  
I know You are taking care of me.  
I turn my will over to You to choose for me.  
All will be fine, for You know  what is best for me. 
I trust your judgement.  
You always provide my needs.  
Please, help me to feel the warmth of your tender devotion.  
As I express warmth, tenderness and devotion to others.  
For what You have given to me in Your blessed Mercy,  
I am grateful.  
There but for the Grace of God, go I.”  
 Lord,  my Love,  my Strength! Love,
Your child  
“Cast your burden upon the Lord,  
and He will sustain You.”  
Psalm 55
