My heart i...Personal version :<br /><br /><br />Spare me, Father!<br /><br />My heart is prone to stray, chasing after the things that will only destroy me.<br /><br />Spare me from pride, a blindness of heart, and a refusal to seek your will<br /><br />from envy, malice, and uncharitableness towards others<br /><br />from the lusts of the flesh and weakness in the face of temptation<br /><br />from discontent and longing for what we can’t have<br /><br />from godless ambition and seeking our own glory<br /><br />from the deceitfulness of riches<br /><br />from anxiety and prayerlessness<br /><br />from laziness, busyness and trivialities.<br /><br />Spare me, Father, from these sins and from all other things that distract me from the glory of Jesus Christ in whom I have forgiveness and all the riches of the world to come.<br /><br />Amen.simone rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16626356778188873309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-911707550436621468.post-73534432270415451392013-02-28T15:05:21.577+10:002013-02-28T15:05:21.577+10:00 And Amen.
