In Thee Oh Lord do i put my trust

In thee, O Lord, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness. .  Psalm 31:1

Our hearts became dirty, oh Lord, and you made them clean.  Our mouths became filthy rags and you taught us how to speak.  Our eyes began to lust, and you held us at bay, then you gave us insight that we might behold the beauty of your son Jesus the Christ.  Our hands moved to do vile things, and you game them your work to do.  You give us mercy when we do not deserve it. You give us an ear to hear when we need to talk.  You give us comfort when we are broken and oppressed.  You give us victory when we cannot stand.  It is by your hand and your word that we even exist at all.  Help us to remember today that even though we are filthy rags, worms that crawl in the dust, vile creatures whose sins you should not look upon, that in mercy you came to us.  Even when we could not come to you, You came to us.  You sought us out.  We could never earn the love that you have so freely given.  Help us to be worthy of even a small bit of your love.  You call us to rise up and to be all that you are desirous of us to be.  With your banner of victory you raise us.  With your love you sustain us.  Help us oh Lord to be worthy of your love and grace.  Help us o Lord to be worthy of such a good Lord and master, of such a God a you. In Jesus name we pray.  Lord I ask for strength, courage and a blessing of prosperity for all who are your children as we walk in the path you have set before us.  Let us walk with eyes wide open, knowing that you are our victory banner. We never walk alone. In the mighty and miraculous name of Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.
