Heavenly Father,
Before anything else, I want to tell you that I am extremely grateful for all Your wondeful graces that You made me see, not just today, but also for the week that has passed. This day, You simply fulfilled once again Your promise of a hopeful day. My heart may broke a thousand times, but it is through and with You that this heart will also be mended for a thousand times more. It’s wonderful how you always reveal Yourself to me in such amazing way that I didn’t imagine. Indeed, You are an amazing God.
Lord, thank you for always reminding me that I need to choose to love at all times despite all of the hard circumstances that may come. Thank you for giving me comfort at times I am fragile. Thank you for simply giving us the Holy Spirit that moves us to love and to do what we had to do for Your sake. Thank you for the little things that made sense. Thank you for the people that also shares Your wisdom that helped me in my fragility. Thank you for loving us upon our unworthiness and imperfections. I am truly thankful, Lord.
Even though the phrase "Thank You" is really not enough to express my gratitude, I will never cease to say so for I will be forever grateful for your wonderful graces. May you continuously guide us to have an open heart and mind to be more sensitive of what You’re trying to tell us. Remind us, Lord, to remain faithful that’ll keep us doing what we need to do for You.
With all of these, I praise You and I thank You.
Also, Lord, I ask for Your forgiveness for the times I sinned and was stubborn. I am truly sorry for the times I do things out of your way, and do things solely with my own understanding without seeking for Your help and wisdom. I ask for Your forgiveness if there were times we were not completely faithful and honest with our words and actions, not just to You but to others as well. Above all else, sorry for the things we do that hurt You.
For all of these, have mercy on me, Lord.
And to all the things that this heart desires, grant what I need and take away the things that are unnecessary. Hear my prayers, Lord, as I have totally surrendered everything to You.
All of this I pray through the same Christ our Lord,
Amen.
