The Best Fix

This week, I’ve decided that the best FIX for my bouts of discontent and restlessness would be a head to toe makeover. No, a visit to the cosmetics counter won’t cut it; I need a Savior to transform this sefish soul of mine and “fix it” to look more like His!

     A Servant’s Prayer

Give me a servant’s heart, O Lord;
A soul that longs for you,
A spirit that daily seeks your will,
And strength to follow through.


Give me ears to listen
To the cries that go unheard,
A mouth that speaks in kindness
And proclaims your perfect word.


Give me eyes to see the things
That grieve your only Son
And hands that reach out for the lost
Until your work is done.


Give me legs that carry me
Swiftly through the race,
And when I’m finished let me leave
Footprints marked with grace.

Today’s Treasure:  Whoever wants to be a leader among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first among you must become your slave.  For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many. –Matthew 20:26
