A Prayer: Attitudes
Father, as broken and sinful people, our attitudes often do not bring glory to your name. Please forgive us for our attitudes of indifference toward those in pain, toward those suffering various trials, and toward those who live a life without knowing you. Forgive us for marginalizing those with great need and forgive us for our apathy and disinterest in their needs.
Father, we pray for renewal in our attitudes and we pray for the spiritual energy required to encourage and support those that have need. Father, reveal to us our prejudices and our heartless dealings with those around us. Please help our attitudes become a reflection of your great love and acceptance. Our attitudes are an overflow of our heart and so tonight we pray for a heart-renewal.
Help us and guide us this day. Help us and guide us to embrace, strengthen, and encourage those around us. We confess that in and of ourselves we are incapable of possessing an authentic attitude of love, compassion, and Christian service. And so we say, Father please.
Amen
