Lord, teach me
to offer you a heart of thanksgiving and praise
in all my daily experiences of life.
I long to bring pleasure to Your heart daily.
Break the power of the enemy in my life.
Defeat him through my sacrifice of praise.
Change my outlook and attitude
into one of joyful contentment
with my present circumstances
I thank You for Jany
Jesus, I want to be like You
who obeyed the Father without complaint
You embraced the chains of humanity
when You walked this earth.
Convict me whenever I complain or compare myself with others
I know that Your truth dwells in a thankful heart....
