The Scripture

I WAITED patiently for the LORD; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry. He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.

Psalm 40:1-2

The Prayer

Thank you for being present and deliberate in how you love me. Thank you, Lord, for my life, I will wait on you. I trust that you know what is best for me. You know my heart. You hear my cries. Help me to come into a full understanding of all the ways you care for me. For you alone know what is lacking in my life; the areas in which barrenness is persisting. Guide me in your grace showing the way I must go. Your mercies, revealing the thoughts and actions that lead me away from your will.
Strengthen me Oh Lord; for my need for you is Great.
Protect me from my selfish desires
Open my eyes to see where I need to have more patience.
Mold me Lord to be more like you.

In Jesus Name.
Amen.
