This is a phenomenal prayer which will be greatly underappreciated. It's related to our ongoing informal and occasionally rambunctious debates. I honestly think God is starting to shift momentum in my favor or maybe it was always like that (see "Footprints in the Sand" story ~ https://www.pinterest.com/3keanukai/footprints-in-the-sand/).

Dear Father God,

I present my body to You as a living sacrifice...

Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters,
in view of God's mercy,
to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice,
holy and pleasing to God—
this is your true and proper worship.
Romans 12:1

Please help me to be holy and pleasing to You.

Please guide me and direct me today.

Please protect me from all harm and evil, and let me overcome all my fears, for you are with me...

God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear...
Psalm 46:1-2

Please shine through my life to draw those around me to Yourself.

May You be glorified throughout the earth...

Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!
Psalm 46:10

May others be pointed to Jesus through the testimony of my life.

Please keep me pure and holy unto You.

Please forgive my sins so that I might start afresh today.

In Jesus' holy name I pray,

Amen.
