Dear Father God,

I am Yours, You are mine. Thank You for choosing me and not allowing me to be part of this world. Sanctify me in the Spirit, the truth of Your word. Sanctify me in the likeness of Jesus. Grow me, form me, shape me.

Thank You for giving me many brothers and sisters who I love and for making us one in Christ Jesus. Protect us all from the evil one. Do not allow us to be conformed to this world. Loosen our grip on our ego and pride. Strengthen our grip on Your sword and shield.

Grant that we easily and willingly surrender to Your will. Thank you for having plans and dreams for us so much bigger than our own. Increase my faith so that I can move a mulberry tree. Grant that I honor You with my effort, acknowledging You in all things, giving thanks always, and praying without ceasing.

Thank you for working all things for good for those who love You and for who are called to Your purpose. I ask this and pray this in the name of Jesus, who I know is Your glorious Son, my Savior and Lord, My Good Shepherd.

Amen
