PRAYER : Lord, I Tell Lies To My Self ...!

Lord, I have A Real Problem!

I Tell Lies Unto My Self!

Big Ones

Little Ones

Even Whoppers

And It's Not Pleasant

Looking At The Lie-To-My-Self Shelf!

I Make Up All Kinds Of Stories

As To Why Things Work Out The Way They Do

And, Please

Forgive Me, Dear Father

I Even Lie To My Self

About How Things Are Working

Between Wicked Me And Holy You!

When Things Between Me And My Brethren

Don't Go The Way That They Should

I Make Excuses For Me And For Them

And Say

Perhaps We Misunderstood Each Other 

And From The Hard Truth Turn And Run Away!

Father, I Need You To Help Me 

To Call A Spade A Spade

And

To Stop Making Excuses For Unkindness

And Pretending

About Mistakes That I Have Indeed Made!

Father,

Help To Accept Your "No!"

Your "Tomorrow!"

Your "Not Today!"

Your "Be Quiet

 And 

"Listen!"

Your Firm

"Leave That Alone!"

And

Your Order To

"Turn Aside!"

"Now By Your Self Stand Alone!"

And

"From That Fast Run Away!"

Lord, I Know Of A Truth That You Love Me!

I Know That You Have My Best Interests At Heart!

Lord, Please

My Will I Give To You

Would You Now Cause The Spirit Of Rebellion In Me To Depart?

Help Me, Dear Father

For I Love You, And I Give Unto You My Humble Praise

In Jesus Christ's Holy Name!

AMEN.
