A Prayer About When We Backslide

Most Precious Lord Jesus, Gentle And Wonderful God, Truly Awesome And Ever-present Holy Spirit,
Precious Lord Jesus, I love you.
How do you put up with me?
How do you have the patience you have with me?
I had you in my life and you were at the center of all I did.
Then I turned away and got caught up in the world.
I don't know how it happened.
It just seems like we were doing fine together and then all of a sudden I have ended up going backwards.
So here we are, Lord.
I come to you again, as I have before, asking you for forgiveness.
I will try harder to do better this time.
I know I have said this before.
I know you have heard this from me before.
I mean to do better and stay on track and keep moving upward toward you.
In your love, remind me of what I should do, who I should be, and how I can serve you more.
When I start to fall back, touch my heart so I will regroup and seek to be your child once again.
All these things I humbly pray in the name of my most Blessed Lord Jesus Christ, my Mighty God, and my Ever-present Holy Spirit upon whom I can rely. Amen
