right now

"Lord, help me to glorify You. I am poor - help me to glorify You through contentment. I am sick - help me to honor You through patience. I have talents - help me to praise You by using them for You. I have time, Lord - help me to redeem it by using it to serve You. I have a heart to feel - let me feel no love but Yours, and let my heart glow with no flame but my affection for You. I have a brain to think - help me to think of You.
Lord, You have put me in this world for a reason - show me what that is and help me work out my life purpose. I can't do much, but as the widow put in  her two mites - which was everything she had - I place my time and eternity into Your treasury.
Lord, I am Yours - take me and enable me to glorify You now in everything I say, in everything I do, and with all that I have." - Charles Spurgeon
