Help me, Jesus, to present myself to the
Father as one who has died in Christ, and
in Christ is alive from the dead, bearing
about in my body the dying of our Lord, Jesus,
and to descend each day into perfect dependence
upon God and into the grave of You, Jesus.
Manifest Your life in me and let humility be
the mark that I claim, the baptism into the
death of Christ. Help my soul enter into Your
humiliation and find in You the power to see
as Paul saw, that every thorn in my flesh is
a blessing sent by You to humble me and to
manifest Your grace and strength in me, help
me to glory in those trials and sufferings that
You send as Your servant Paul did.
Lord, to take pleasure in them instead
of asking for deliverence and to know
that the place of humiliation is the place
of blessing, of power and of joy and to
ask for this gift in my heart, to be so freed
from self that whatever is said about me or
done to me is lost and swallowed up in
the thought that You, Jesus, are all!
Lord, in my trials, weaknesses and troubles
let me know by bringing me low enough to realize
that Your grace is all and to take pleasure in the
very thing that brings me and keeps me low, Your
strength, Lord, made perfect in my weakess, Your
presence filling and satisfying my emptiness and
then let me say with open mind and heart,
Your grace is sufficient for thee,
Your humility will be my Salvation, Lord, You
are my humility, Your care and Your work. Let
Your grace be sufficient for me to meet the
temptation of my pride, let Your strength be
perfected in my weakness, let, let me choose to
be weak, to be low, to be nothing, let humility
be my joy and my gladness, to gladly glory and
take pleasure in my weakness and in all that can
humble me and keep me low. Let Your power rest
upon me, humble me and keep me humble, Lord,
and let me trustfully and joyfully accept all
that humbles, a joy that nothing can destroy.
Jesus, I trust in You, let my conscience be my
guide to full humility, help me to give gratitude
to everything that You allow from within me,
from friend or enemy, in nature or in grace,
to remind me of my need of humbling and to help
me to it, to be my very first duty before You,
the Perpetual safeguard of my soul. Set my heart
upon it as the source of all blessing and help me
to learn to know all of my weaknesses, to die fully
to myself and to be voluntarily and intelligently
fitted to receive the promise from God,
Who is the All in All.
Breathe in me Holy Spirit, and perfect my humility
in me each day. How small I am before You, Lord,
nothing in Your presence at all, make my destiny to
be emptier, lowlier, unnoticed and unknown,
Holy and filled with Christ alone!!!
AMEN !!

very beautiful finish angel, your god will surely have a special place for you when you meet him someday, although we do not believe the same, i see this from a writers viewpoint as well, and it is, in all four parts, one of the most beautiful devoted prayers ive ever read, also knowing your age i am very much impressed, it is in full a complete and classic piece of literature and should be published in its entirety, blessings to you my friend, hugs n' love, nessa xxx..
