Text Box: My Life is a garden.
Your life is a garden.
 
Is it a waste, untilled and wild?
Like an untaught, untrained child?
 
Or is it good soil under the Master’s hand?
Is my soul His own cherished land?
 
Is it grown thick with thistles and weed?
Or has it been sown with His good seed?
 
What is the harvest that comes from this life:
Goodness and love, or hatred and strife?
 
O Lord, take this stony ground of mine.
Make it all, completely Thine!
 
Only then can it ever yield
The pleasant fruits of a godly field.
Amen and Amen!

Text Box:  
The following prayer from Africa is a great one to pray:
You asked for my hands
That you might use them for Your purpose
I gave them for a moment
Then withdrew them, for the work was hard.
 
You asked for my mouth
To speak out against injustice,
I gave you a whisper that I might not be accused.
 
You asked for my eyes
To see the pain of poverty
I closed them, for I did not want to see.
 
You asked for my life
That You might work through me
I gave You a small part, that I might not get “too involved”.
 
Lord, forgive me for my calculated efforts to serve You
Only when it is convenient for me to do so,
Only in those places where it is safe to do so and
Only with those who make it easy to do so.
 
Father, forgive me
Renew me
Send me out
As a useable instrument
That I might take seriously
The meaning of Your Cross!
Amen!
