Prayer
God, be with my friends. Make me humble. Make me be quiet, and don't let me say anything till You've approved it. Help me to not speak out angrily or foolishly against my friends or my enemies. Please be with those who love me, and with those who don't. God, lead us all. Protect us. Show us the truth, Your truth. Bless the relationships I have with my friends, Lord. Don't let our flaws come between us; help us work around them or through them. Give me strength, and give everyone else strength. Bless my decision making, Lord. Don't let me hold grudges. Help me appreciate Your truths. Help me appreciate the fact that good comes with the bad, and vice versa. Help me appreciate pain. Help me gain additional strengh, endurance, wisdom, and humility from it. Please, God, reveal Yourself. God, confirm Your truth in me, and bless my decisions. Protect and bless all those I touch; don't let my nature damage them. Change me, Lord. Transform me, always. Let me be as truthful and open as possible. Give me the courage and the strength to live truthfully and openly, to Your glory. Help me become humble. Make me humble. Defend me, please. Thank you Lord; You're a very gracious God. In Christ's name I pray.
