Lord, save me from Myself.



I am writing this to the Lord God almighty, the ultimate authority to the living and the dead. This is my confession at his alter of divine and unrestricted grace. This is my petition, my submission in ultimate humility and my appeal to infinite mercy. Lord God, pardon my shortcomings, salvage me from the arrogance of my being and the stupidity of my convictions. Too often I have darkened my sight with pride and arrogance and gone far enough to insult your grace, I know too often I have denied your existence, ignored your conviction and insulted your character, Lord God, pardon my foolishness. Right now I am sound in my thought but soon I will be back to my usual self, I know very soon I will injure your grace, defile your expectations and ignite your wrath, very soon I know I will declare that you, The Lord God almighty is dead and I will testify that you are Obsolete, Lord God, save me from myself.

This is my petition, my submission in ultimate humility and my appeal to infinite mercy. Lord God, pardon my shortcomings, salvage me from the arrogance of my being and the stupidity of my convictions. Too often I have darkened my sight with pride and arrogance and gone far enough to insult your grace, I know too often I have denied your existence, ignored your conviction and insulted your character, Lord God, pardon my foolishness

Everyday I am compromised; everyday I substitute my principles for convenience. Everyday I trade my few virtues for many vices. Daily I extinguish your light and embrace my darkness. Lord God, save me from myself. Dear Lord, right now I am penitent and solemn in my thought but soon I will be horrible as usual. Lord grant me a purpose in life, guide me to a greater good. Exempt me from my current path of materialistic vanity and set me on a nobler path. Lord replenish your light in my sight, renovate my commitment to your goodness and restore your faith in my heart. Spare me from the conspiracies of evil, illuminate my path with your guidance, re-enforce my faith with your sovereign strength and recover me to your fold.

Lord redeem me with your grace, spare me from my weakness. Dear lord, extinguish the greed in my heart, arm me with Ambition rather than avarice, help me choose the narrow over the wide, the bright rather than the dark. Hold me in your bosom, chain me to your will and hold me to your truth. This is my prayer, in-eloquent but sincere, humble but deep, brief but conclusive. This here is my appeal.

Lord I fear, afraid your grace has departed eternally from my life, I fear I have fallen out of your grasp, I am worried that I am only fit for your wrath, I am afraid that my die has been cast, my case has been sealed and that I may be forever Lost.

The Lord loves you even more than you could ever imagine. His love and embrace surpasses, regardless of all. He's faithful, He will give you your heart's desire, just as you've prayed.

Brenda, you sound warm enough. Its nice to know that your endearment to the almighty is present. Unfortunately, my questions about the Character and goodness of the Lord Almighty still persist without relief
