Dear Lord, It's Me Again

Today i was in a very different mood..as i was surfing through the net i found this poem which was very much apt for me..:-)

Whenever things start to go wrong around me, and the world just seems to be falling in on me, I often say to myself "Why me, Lord?" Then, when I take the time to think about it, I realise that the reason things are happening the way they are is simply because I haven't started the day with a prayer to ask the Lord to guide me and be with me as I go out into the world. He is there always, just waiting for us to ask for His help.
DEAR LORD JESUS, IT'S ME AGAIN
Dear Lord Jesus, it's me again,

Crying out to You in prayer.

I hope that You are listening,

For I know You're always there.

I need Your help, Lord Jesus,

As I go out into the world each day,

For there are so many things around me

Tempting me to go astray.

Please help me not to be envious

Of those who are rich and have good health

Help me be satisfied with what I have,

And in Heaven to store my wealth.

Keep me from heeding false doctrine, Lord,

Instead of listening to You,

For in Your Word is all I need,

And every Word written there is true.

Keep me on the straight and narrow path,

And help me Your perfect will to obey.

If I should stumble, please don't let me fall,

But lift me up, my Lord, I pray.

Lord, please hear my humble prayer

A cry from deep within my heart.

Help me to keep my eyes fixed on You,

And from Your truth let me never depart.
