I clipped the following from a “Concern” some years ago and think its message is timeless.
PRAYER OF A UPW MEMBER
God give me an understanding heart
that I may see in every being a part of thee.
So let me share another's woe
that we may help our faith to grow.
So let me share another's woe
that we may help our faith to grow.
Give me a dedicated heart
that I may bring time, self and talents to thee, our King; serving and constantly striving to be
worthy of all thy gifts to me.
worthy of all thy gifts to me.
Give me a grateful, joy-filled heart
that I may cheer those in deep grief or filled with fear;
maintaining, whatever problems there be,
praise and unwavering trust in thee.
maintaining, whatever problems there be,
praise and unwavering trust in thee.
