my Entreaties

I found this prayer from a friend’s blog. What a masterpiece! I was astonished by the content of this plea it really helps whenever I am in pain. I am really thankful for that someone who shared this pleads. I am able to gather myself back into pieces gradually.

Prayer for Trust

Dear Jesus, I trust in You.

In the midst of my uncertainty, I ask not for clarity but for a heart full of trust. I accept all that Your hand has allowed to come to my life now  whether it be convenient or inconvenient, predictable or unpredictable, victory or even failure.

I thank You for all that You bring to my life, all that You Have taken away and all that You have left me with.

Jesus, sweet Jesus, I trust in You. Amen.

Prayer for Contentment

Lord, I ask for the gift of contentment.

Please remove from me the desire to want more and teach me contentment in every situation.

Help me to focus on what I should do and not on what I should have.

Teach me to be grateful for everything You have given me.

And help me detach the nonessentials so that I can concentrate on what is eternal. Amen.

Prayer in Time of Sickness

Dearest Jesus, You are the Lord and Giver of Life, and yet You know how it is to be afflicted and in pain.

I come to You right now, having grown weak and infirm, and I ask for Your comfort and strength.

There is a loneliness that grips my heart because of this sickness and the suffering I go through, that I feel those who are well cannot understand. But I know that You do. I believe Your compassionate heart even now reaches out to touch me.

Thank You, my Sweetest Lord! Thank You for every wound You took that I may be healed! And I am already healed. Amen.

Prayer for God's Will in My Life

Your will is perfect, Lord.

Let it be done in my life. Give me the grace to surrender my desires so that I can be open to receive Your best for my life.

I ask, not seeking to squander Your blessings on my own pleasures, but to find fulfillment in doing Your will.

Reveal Your plans for me, Lord, so that I may obtain the future full of hope that You have promised. Amen. 

Whenever I found myself in shadows and no one seems to cast brightness upon me. I take every opportunity to utter this prayer so I can light up the brightness I have in me.
