Help Me, A Psalm For The Soul

Hi Dad.....

Please help me put your thoughts on center stage.....
What is it you are working toward in all these "feelings"?  Where am I seeing only 1 angle, or at least not all angles of your Sovereign Designs?

Help me, I pray, to not be moved by the pride of others, lusting deceitful trickery to fulfill their powerless wills.  But if in me there is a pride-filled intention let me be moved to humility.

Help me to use Truth as my barometer and my mouth to call your power into everything.  Help me to lean deep into your body for refuge, knowing by grace all is well in all things.

Help me to be part of demolishing strongholds, to tear down dividing walls and unifying our faith.  Help me to be a peacemaker and allow you to avenge, if and when you see vengeance is due.

Help me to love tenderly, the brothers and sisters, to not hold back but open wide knowing my heart is your own.  Help me to not fear the pain of rejection, hate of men or their injurious, unkind words.

Help me to not provoke or return evil; but as allowed, unto others, to always do good.  Help me to humble myself in your presence and in patience ask what's the best recourse for everyone involved.
,
Help me to keep offering all you've provided, even when rejected; only you, God, know when readiness and perfect timing intersect. Help me find delight in all my trying and see the power of your Spirit producing its perfect effects.

Help me rejoice more in the hoping, in what is unseen and remember my Lord.  Help me not cherish what I can grab onto; and to not cling to people; ultimately we are your to have and to hold.

Help me to understand I have nothing sacrifice worthy; any trinket I value, while a gift, is sacrificially void.  Help me to use my heart, mind soul and body to come to know you, as best I can till I know as I am known.

Help me find joy even in my lack of understanding; how can I be troubled when I'm forgiven, liberated and a child of God.  I trust you are with me, even in me already working. And I thank you for helping me become who you divinely designed me to be.

Selah
Kisses,
