I came across this prayer on Pinterest and wanted to share it! It is quite comprehensive, yet is also highly specific and detailed, too. These are the keywords that stood out to me (the words in parentheses are my interpretation of words in the prayer):
Enlighten (illuminate)
Inflame (sustain)
Inspire (fill/breathe in)
Enrich (deepen and improve)
Pardon (forgive)
Sanctify (set apart)
Order (put right)
What I like about this prayer (and all prayer, theoretically) is its recognition of our total dependence on the Lord in faith for all things. I like the way that Zac Poonen describes it: “Faith is the total leaning of the human personality upon God.”
Where are you leaning today?
Pray with me:
Thank you for this prayer.

Seems like something is going around these days! Several people I know have been down for the count with illness, including me (although I am better). I hope you feel better soon.

Mr. Poonan has something there.
Excellent prayer, as it lays before our Lord all that we are not, and asks that He fill us with all that He is. Thank you for sharing.

I like the prayer’s simplicity. It reminds me that we don’t necessarily need a lot of words to talk to the Lord — just heartfelt ones.
