A PRAYER TO BE A POSITIVE INFLUENCE, A Prayer For January 15

O Lord, You have shown that I can trust You.
I seek Your blessing each and every day,
So I may bring its influence with me
Into the stress and strife of modern life.
Give me the gift of Your abounding strength,
So that I may conquer my own weakness.
Give me the wisdom that is from Heaven,
So I may know Your daily design,
And to fulfill my part in Your plan.
I give to You possession of my mind
So I may be inspired by Your thoughts.
May I work with You to do works of love,
So I may live the most true life I can.
Guide me with the soft touch of Your Spirit
So others may be blessed by my actions.
Help me to be truly sympathetic,
As I touch the lives of people You love.
Be my unseen adviser and tutor
As I walk among people who suffer-
And those who carry silent, secret pain.
Let my ways show that Jesus lives with me.
May I be a humble tool in Your hands
To show others the gospel of Your love.

We can be a positive influence when we give ourselves to God and ask for his guidance. We must empty ourselves of vanity and self-seeking and work as servants of God, by doing His good among our fellow man. This cannot be done alone we need God in our lives to do so.
