House of Israel/Lighthouse Ministries Daily Prayer
Dear Father in Heaven,
Too often I find myself, or I notice others becoming concerned about what someone else is or is not doing.
Some people will complain and refuse to go out of their way or beyond the call of duty to do a great job, or to tackle a problem head-on, or to meet someone's need.
Others are discouraged when they are not recognized while someone else gets a pat on the back or an unexpected gift.
Whatever the case may be, Father, help me to be mindful of what I should be doing to serve You and others.
Help me be on guard and reject my drifting into negative attitudes, selfish thoughts and wrong actions.
What You call me to do today is most important...
And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord
and not to men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance;
for you serve the Lord Christ.
Colossians 3:23-24
Please help me to be mindful of how I treat others, how well I do the tasks at hand, how I use the spiritual gifts which You have given to me in the ways that You desire.
Let me represent You well as Your child living in this world.
May I live above reproach and remain on guard.
Thank You for Your strength for me each day.
In the loving name of Jesus, I pray,
Amen.
