My Creator, I am now willing that You should have all of me, good and bad. I pray that You now remove from me every single defect of character which stands in the way of my usefulness to You and my fellows. Grant me strength, as I go out from here, to do Your bidding. Amen ~ 7th Step Prayer
Strength. Strength to do Your bidding.If the give-me-strength part is absent,
I'm volunteering, setting myself up,
doing it without assistance. And I fail.
My will, not yours be done...that's how I act.
But it works better...like, at all...if the prayer
asks the opposite. Your will, not mine, be done.
And that starts with strength, and not the strength
that comes with ego...edging God out.
