Laughing woman with her eyes closed Here is a new daily prayer, I hope it works for you.

  • Lord, help me to relax about insignificant details

beginning tomorrow at 7:41:23 AM PST.

  • Lord, help me to consider people’s feelings,

(even if most of them ARE hypersensitive.)

  • Lord, help me to take responsibility for my own actions,

even though they’re usually NOT my fault.

  • Lord, help me to not try to RUN everything.

But, if You need some help, please feel

free to ASK me!

  • Lord, help me to be more laid back,

and help me to do it EXACTLY right.

  • Lord, help me to take things more seriously,

especially laughter, parties, and dancing.

  • Lord, give me patience,

and I mean right NOW!

  • Lord, help me not be a perfectionist.

(Did I spell that correctly?)

  • Lord, help me to finish everything I sta

 

  • Lord, help me to keep my mind on

one Th — Look, a bird — ing at a time.

  • Lord, help me to do only what I can, and trust you for the rest.

And would you mind putting that in writing?

  • Lord, keep me open to others’ ideas,

WRONG though they may be.

  • Lord help me be less independent,

but let me do it my way.

  • Lord help me follow established procedures today.

On second thought, I’ll settle for a few minutes.

  • Lord, help me slow down

andnotrushthroughwhatIdo.
