Rooted in Christ

 

 

 

Thank you Lord that you love me,

that you never give up on me,

that you delight in me

in spite of myself

 

Help me make you my number one priority

let me yearn to spend time in your presence

I long to be a woman with my roots sunk deep.

Nourish me with knowledge and understanding

 

Feed me with your word

Guide and teach me always

Remind me to bring my every decision to you

Guide my every word, thought and action

 

Teach me to hear your promptings

Soften my heart and stop me being self-willed

Help me strive instead, to see your will done

in every circumstance and situation

 

Help me store your words in my memory

so I can recall them in times of need

Let me never be worried or anxious

may I rest easy and be comforted by you

 

For you have only plans to prosper not to harm me

Let me never forget this simple truth.

Help me to be a shining light

to bring glory to your name

 

May I always be woman after your heart

prevent me from faltering and catch me when I stumble

Let me keep my eyes focussed on you

and let my life be rooted in Christ.
