PRAYER: Father, Help Me To Look Up To You

Have Mercy, Dear Father

And 

Forgive Me

For All The Times

I Have Raised My Self

Above

My Creator

My Healer

My Helper

My Provider

My Defender

My Protector

My Perfector

My Savior

My Sealer

My Friend To The End

My Lord

And 

My God!

Help Me, Father

To Look Away From Self

And 

Look Up To You

To Step Outside Of Self

And

Step Up To Glory In You

To Give Up Self

And 

Give In To You

To Walk Holy

And 

To Live Wholly For You

In Whom My Hope Rests!

I Pray, Lord

For The Indwelling

The Chiding

And 

The Direction 

Of The Blessed Holy Spirit!

I Also Pray, Lord

That In The Day

That I Must Need Be Chastised

That You, In Mercy

Will Help Me To Accept Graciously

The Reproof 

As A Blessed Child

Of A Loving And Holy Father!

I Also Beseech You, Dear Father

To Help Me

- No Matter The Earthly Reward -

Not To Grieve The Holy Spirit Away!

I Love You, Lord

And 

I Thank You For The Many Blessings

And 

For Hearing 

And 

Answering Prayers

Even With The Unwanted 

Yet Often Necessary

Fatherly "NO!"

In Jesus' Holy Name 

I Come

I Stand

And 

Plead!

AMEN.

Be Thankful For The Living God!

If God Was A Man
AND
Could Lie
He Would Say That He Loves Us
BUT 
Not Today!
He Would Promise To Help Us
BUT 
As He Is Having
A Mental Health Day
He Is Saying Out Loud:

This Parenting Crap Doesn't Pay!

BUT ...

God Is Not Man!
He Cannot Lie!
He Loves Us Throughout Life
AND
Even In Death
Because He Loves Us Enough
To Give Us The Quiet Bed
Of The Dead
Even As He Pleads For Others
To Trust Him
AND
Not Their Deceitful Heart's Head!

Our Father
In Heaven
Who Hallows Our Days
Who Directs 
Corrects
AND
Protects Us
When We Are Mislead
Is
Faithful
Trustworthy
A Provider Par Excellence
The God With The Most For Us
When Satan Would Like To Make Toast Of Us!

Our God
Is Excellent
Honest
True
Helpful
Healing
Feeding
Calling Out To Me And To You!
He Is The God Of All Ages
And All Graces, That's True
AND
If We Will Let Him
He Will Take Us
To The Holy Home
Above The Blue!

Be Thankful
That Our Holy God
Is Not
A Hell-Activated Man!
Be Thankful
That Our God Is The God With The Hand Steady
With Truth Ever At The Ready
The God Who Is Shepherd
Leader
Guider
AND
Stay
The God Who Will Help Us
Whenever
Wherever
We
In Faith
Pray!

So ...

When You Observe
What False Gods
Make Their Adherents Do
Be Thankful
That You Serve
The God Holy 
Faithful
Eternal
Loving Wise And True!

Give Unto The God Of Heaven
Your Worship
Your Ways 
AND
Your Days
AND
Feel Yourself Rise Up To Heaven 
Singing Hallelujah 
When Jesus Christ Comes
To Start Our Glory Days!
