my prayer for thursday

Lord, thank You for another day within this life of mine.
give me the strength to live it well, whatever i may find.
bestow from Your abundance whatever i may lack.
to use the hours wisely, for i cannot have them back.

Lord, thank You for another day, in which to make amends for slights or petty words, inflicted on my friends.
for sometimes losing patience with problems that i find.
for seeing faults in other lives, but not the ones in mine.

Lord, thank You for another chance, in which to try to be a little more deserving of the gifts You've given me.
for yesterday is over, and tomorrow's far away, and i remain committed to the good i do today.
