Father, LORD of my life, past present and future,
Help me. Help me struggle well – not poorly. Reveal these areas of weakness, convict me from my head to my heart of your truth and of my iniquities. Pound my heart with the expression of the offenses I commit against you, have me chase your ultimate treasure – your Son and Glory – with all my soul, and I thank you for the progress I have made, for the journey that is to come, through which I be more and more sanctified, and falling no more.
In your all-powerful and joyous name,
Amen.
