Dear Lord,<br />
t’s so easy <strong>to</strong> get caught up in striving <strong>to</strong><br />
I be something: educated, popular, physically<br />
fit, talented, good looking—the l<strong>is</strong>t<br />
goes on. But I pray that you help me <strong>to</strong> realize<br />
that the only real pursuit worthy of my<br />
full attention <strong>is</strong> <strong>to</strong> be completely yours.<br />
Help me <strong>to</strong> understand that in all the<br />
changes and challenges, in every moment<br />
of the day, you are with me. You never leave<br />
me or forsake me, and I never have <strong>to</strong> “go it<br />
alone.” You love me from the moment I am<br />
born until the day I die. Because of <strong>th<strong>is</strong></strong> love<br />
I accept from you, I can d<strong>is</strong>cover life abundant.<br />
Lord, during <strong>th<strong>is</strong></strong> time of change and<br />
challenge as I seek <strong>to</strong> become what I want <strong>to</strong><br />
be—a time of searching, of exploration and<br />
d<strong>is</strong>covery, of tremendous opportunity for<br />
personal and spiritual growth—help me <strong>to</strong><br />
walk with you, and <strong>to</strong> “become” the person<br />
you want me <strong>to</strong> be.<br />
In your Holy Name I pray.<br />
Amen.<br />
