Monday Encouragement - LW

God give me faith in myself,

not only on days when I'm going great and winning

and nothing seems impossible

but on days when the whole world looks lousy

and I'm losing and the road ahead seems too hard.

When I wonder if I'm brave enough, smart enough

and I must be crazy to try,don't let me quit Lord, not ever.

Let me keep the faith in myself.

No matter how many people

discourage me…

doubt me…

laugh at me…

warn me…

think me a fool…

Don't let me listen.

Let me hear another voice telling me,

"You can do it and you will!"

If nobody else in this world cares or believes in me,

let me believe in myself.

I know there will be times when I will doubt my own abilities,

when I'll be discouraged and on the verge of despair,

don't let me give up, hang onto me.

Fan the fires so that I'll try even harder.

Give me more faith in myself.
You are the source of life and power.

You are the source of my abilities and my faith.
Help me to always believe in myself, as you believe in me.
