Birthday Prayer

Lord,

  • create in me a pure heart with honest intentions (1 Chronicles 29:17)
  • bless me so I can bless others more (Deuteronomy 15:6)
  • give me a discerning heart and wisdom (1 Kings 3:9)
  • use me more for the benefit of others (Galatians 3:8)
  • help me to be humble and think less of my self (James 3:13)
  • strengthen me so I can do the work You've entrusted to me (Psalm 73:26)
  • give me a grateful heart and help me to keep myself from complaining (1 Thessalonians 5:18)
  • make my heart teachable (Psalm 119:27)
  • help me to persevere and be mature in faith (James 1:4)
  • give me patience and help me to understand that everything has its perfect time (Ecclesiastes 3:11)
  • help me to be decisive (Job 38:36)
  • draw me closer to You, I want to know You more (Psalm 119:20)
  • teach me how to love the way You do - agape love (John 3:16)

Can these be Your birthday gifts to me?

...though I know You have given so much

...and this will take time.

Thank you for another year of Your faithfulness and love.
