Out From the Woods
Oh God help me out of these woods that I got myself lost in
as a ramification of listening & obeying the wrong voice from
within me; leading me to making the wrong decisions that have put
me in the unenviable situation that I find myself in my life. Oh
Lord, I pray & humbly beseech thee to guide this lost lamb out of
these woods & into the great wide-open field; into the green
pastures where I can once again graze amongst the flock that I
strayed away from. For you, almighty God, are my shepherd that I
can & will always trust to facilitate me with my problems. You alone, oh Lord, are my strength & hope &
I can rest assured, with full affirmation, that you will always be
with me...AMEN

May the sense of peace that comes over me while I give thanks &
praise to thee oh Lord during mass not fade away, which it
gradually ends up doing when I go back out into the world, but
for it, instead, to remain strong from within me all the way up to
the next time I go to mass. Prevent me oh Lord from jumping back
into the pig-pen to dirty myself up with sin, something that I
find myself doing time & time again. Keep me from allowing
trivial as well as serious matters from getting the best of me.
Oh Lord, make me strong & keep me strong so that I can be the kind
of person that I know I should be. I humbly ask all of this from
you Almighty God, through my Lord & Savior Jesus Christ...AMEN

Purified
Oh Lord, purify me with your fire that you programmed nature
to use with your inconceivable power to purify the landscape of a
forest. Purify the landscape of my life that's filled with the
weeds & briers of negativity. May all that negativity be
eradicated by your fire oh Lord & may the result be a landscape
that is filled with the pleasant fragrance & beauty of love &
understanding.

A prayer of adoration and devotionOh Lord, my faith for you shall never dwindle, nor shall it
ever stray, for I am one of the many in your flock & you are my
shepherd that I will always give thanks & praise to day by day;
protecting me from the danger of the wolf in sheep's clothing. I
shall always be reverent & humble to worshiping you oh Lord with
all my faith & love I sing.
