May the motives of my heart be pure and right before your eyes, O Lord, may I bring you honor in all I do and receive your blessings, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

You are the potter; we are all the work of your hand

Yet you, Lord, are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand. Do not be angry beyond measure, Lord;do not remember our sins forever. Oh, look on us, we pray, for we are all your people. Isaiah 64:8-9 Merciful Lord, you are our loving and forgiving Father in heaven, I thank you for being so patient with me, I thank you for your unconditional love. I ask Father God, that you mold me into the person you want me to be, that you shape my life and guide my path, let me be the work of your wonderful hands as I surrender my life to you, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen
