What Do I Really Want From God? (my prayer today)

Father, To be easily orchestrated by You, To seek your face, To ponder the things of God, To marvel and to wonder at Your ways, To see Your hand at work, To hear Your voice, To know Your Word, To receive my assignments with joy, To go where You send, To stay beneath the shadow of Your wing, To love You more today than I did yesterday, For my faith in You to grow, To surrender my entire life to You, To represent You well, To tell of Your goodness and Your mercy and Your love, Oh God, to hear You say, “Well done, good & faithful servant!” as I enter eternity, That my heart would continually give thanks to You, in all circumstances, from the most difficult ones to the most boring of days and every situation in between.  That my heart be filled with thankfulness to You, God, because You are God and I am not.  You are smarter than me, and You know what I don’t know, so I pray for more trust in You as I go.  In the strong and powerful Name of Jesus I pray, Amen!
