Abba Father

You know my thoughts and my desires
You see my frustrations and weaknesses
You know me better than I know myself
You're looking inside my heart,
and You see everything.

All of my hopes, plans, and longings
may these honor You.
Cleanse me from within,
purify my heart
my intentions and motives.

All my life, You've been faithful
since I was a wimpy kid, You're there
Who am I to question Your ways?
You're loving, kind, all mighty and powerful.
You hold my hand wherever I go
and whenever I am afraid.

Help me to worship You.
Help me to seek You.
Help me to love You more than anything else.


As the new season unfolds,
help me to find the right path,
give me discernment in every decision
give me hope in every frustration
give me strength in every battle.

You're waymaker, miracle worker, promise keeper
and my light in the darkness.
How awesome You are!
How magnificent You are!
How loving You are!

You're a perfect GOD and You always work perfectly.
That's who You are,
the God of Moises, Abraham, and David
You never change.

How loving You are my Lord
as You sent Jesus to die for our sins,
to experience fullness and purposeful life
and to have eternal life when the edge of doom comes
a life with peace despite of any circumstances
a life filled with hopes and dreams
a life with joy despite of any suffering
a life with You.

Forgive me whenever I forget 
your great love for us.
It's all about You Lord,
It's all about You Jesus.

Thank you Abba Father!

Perhaps your path is harder because your calling is higher. Perhaps you need to be familiarize with pain and hardships so you'll appreciate happiness and success better. One day you'll be glad not because you're capable of doing it on your own but because His grace strengthen you and carries you every time you can't walk through life anymore. As long as you're living you are still winning.
