This is my staple prayer: "God, please help me to know and do what is needed of me". Me...on my knees. Now, Instead of begging for things to stop, go away, or be different, I genuinely seek to know and do God's will...Then, I pray harder for the discipline to match my actions to my prayers. I want to live in service....to be of maximum service to my fellows and family. So simple and yet so unnatural and often an excruciating effort to resist the old selfish and defeating rituals that dragged me through the first four decades of my human experience.
Show me. Guide me. Change me.
