Chapter 17 of 22

Lord, today there may be someone

Lord, today there may be someone

who needs me

as an arm to lift life’s load,

an eye to lead the lost,

a mind to learn Love’s law.

May my arm not be slack,

my eye not grow dim

nor my mind fail to comprehend.

Rather, make me strong,

give me discernment,

fill me with truth.

Lord, I don’t want to be

unprepared, unsteady, unsure

when his need is made known.

So, help me and use me

to bless my neighbor

according to Your will

and in

Your name,

Amen.
