PRAYING EACH DAY - DECEMBER

[MajestyJo]

Let us pray:

Lord, I need to keep an eye
on the small things in life
as well as the bigger issues,
because my thoughts
become my attitude,
my attitude becomes my words,
my words become my actions,
and my actions form my character.
Be there, Lord,
in that instant before every thought,
that I may choose wisely
my thoughts and my attitude,
my words and my actions,
so that I may grow in friendship
with those
who become part of my life.
Show me, too,
how best to encourage others
to reach their potential.
Amen.

“True greatness consists in being great in little things.” The real Doctor Samuel Johnson - who died on this day in 1784 - spent 8 years preparing his dictionary of about 40,000 definitions.
He was also a poet, and is remembered for short phrases (sometimes comical) that sum up a situation.
