Prayers

He asked for strength that he might achieve,
He was made weak that he might obey.
He asked for health that he might do greater things,
He was given infirmity that he might do better things.
He asked for riches that he might be happy,
He was given poverty that he might be wise.
He asked for power that he might have the praise of men,
He was given weakness that he might feel the need for God.
He asked for all things that he might enjoy life,
He was given life that he might enjoy all things.
He has received nothing that he asked for,
All that he hoped for,
His prayer is answered; he is most blessed.

Heartprints

Whatever our hands touch-
We leave fingerprints!
On walls, on furniture
On doorknobs, dishes, books.
There's no escape.
As we touch we leave our identity.
Oh God, wherever I go today
Help me leave heartprints!
Heartprints of compassion
Of understanding and love.
Heartprints of kindness
And genuine concern.
May my heart touch a lonely neighbor
Or a runaway daughter
Or an anxious mother
Or perhaps an aged grandfather.
Lord, send me out today
To leave heartprints.
And if someone should say
"I felt your touch,"
May that one sense YOUR LOVE
Touching through ME.
~Author Uknown~

Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier.Be the living expression of God's kindness;
kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes,kindness in your smile,kindness in your warm greeting.
Mother Teresa

This is My Prayer
Bless me, Heavenly Father,
    forgive my erring ways,
Grant me strength to serve Thee,
    put purpose in my days ...
Give me understanding,
    enough to make me kind
So I may judge all people
    with my heart and not my mind ...
And teach me to be patient
    in everything I do,
Content to trust Your Wisdom
    and to follow after You ...
And help me when I falter
    and hear me when I pray
And receive me in Thy Kingdom
    to dwell with Thee some day.
~Helen Steiner Rice~

Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.
From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee,
when my heart is overwhelmed:
lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
(Psalms 61:1-2)
