Lord Jesus, 

Thank you so much for this day because despite all the bad news, I really feel blessed and 'normal' today. Thank you, Lord, for all the blessings that you have showered upon us. 

Lord, thank you for my job, for all the opportunities, for my family, for my friends, and to all the experiences and people that you have blessed me with to help me grow closer to you. 

I know I have not been living a life that's worthy of you. And somehow, I need to change the way I live my life and share my blessings to anyone who deserves them. 

Lord, have control over my life. Have control over my thoughts, actions, decisions and everyday living. Give me strength to fight off temptation but still be inspired and moved. Please give me strength to shout your name and glorify and praise you among many peoples. Help me not to wane when things get rough and when I feel like my faith will be compromised. Please help me to be strong to fight for what I believe in and that it will show in everything that I do. Lord, I offer my life to you. Everything in it. Even the one that I desired the most. I offer them to you. For I know that my life will be beautiful, peaceful, and safe when every aspect of it is in Your hands. 

Please let me feel your love always. Let the fire in my heart burn for You that people around me will know that You are God and You save. Help me and guide me Lord to grow towards You and use me as an instrument for Your Glory. Teach me and guide me how to touch other people's hearts that they will know Your name. That you are the only one true God that they should seek. Please be with me always Lord that the evil one will not partake in even one small part in my life. Help me Lord to seek You always and seek You first above all else.
