Teach me Thy Love

getThe Lord has been loving me so greatly, but I am still burdened with my own affairs and desires and dreams. The Lord has loved me by sparing nothing even His own life and with great humility. Lord, have mercy on me a sinner!
Once again the life story of Joseph came into my mind and I was reminded with his integrity, faithfulness and fear of God.

Lord,
when Thou allowest me to feel the happiness
let my heart to rejoice in Thy mercy and faithfulness
and not forgetting Thy Goodness
and teach me to love Thee

Lord,
when Thou allowest me to taste the harshness
let my heart be silent and wait upon Thee
Like Thee Thyself bore all meekly and humbly
and teach me to love Thee

Lord,
when Thou allowest me to taste rejection and suffering
let my heart to amazed with Thy patience and obedience
and call them who have hated Thee to Thyself
and by that heal and cleanse our soul
and teach me to love Thee and to love those who are rejected and suffering

Lord,
when Thou allowest me to be in each circumstance
let my heart trust Thee, to look up and see beyond things
That Thy mercy and love are far greater and Thou Thyself is guiding
embracing all,
loving all,
without grumble, neither embittered nor despair
but say with heartfelt confession: Glory to Thee O God for all things!
