A Prayer About How We Should Grow
Most Precious Lord Jesus, Gentle And Wonderful God,
Truly Awesome And Ever-present Holy Spirit, Precious Lord Jesus, I love
you.
I have no reason to stay the same although I would like to stay the same.
I want to stay where I am but I know I must grow and move forward.
In order not to grow, I want to tell myself lies that sound good and make
me comfortable.
I do not want to grow because I know growing can be painful.
I do not want to grow because I know growing means I must take chances and
risks�chances and risks making me afraid.
Although I have circumstances, problems, and excuses why I do not want or
need to grow, I know in my heart I must grow and get better if I truly
want to be your child.
As your child, help me grow in wisdom and in truth each day.
Even when it seems I am not growing, inspire me, encourage me, and show me
there is always room for me to be better so I can do more for you.
Inspire me to grow by conquering every obstacle in your name and in your
love.
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
