Dear Lord, take away my fear of the cross

I know Lord that I am not here to ask favors. I am here not to be spared from problems either.
But what I only know now is that I am here to praise You as I usually do when the going gets rough because I praise You not only for the good times in my life but for the bad times as well.

I praise and thank You not only for the petitions and prayers granted but also for those that are not yet granted and remained unanswered. I thank You for the graces as well as the crises in my life.

Lord, I trust that You know what is best for me. May You give me the grace to learn to outgrow my weaknesses, and make them as my strengths with the help of your loving mercy and love.

Lord, take away my fear of the upcoming changes in my life as I plunge myself to a new environment, to a new beginning of another chapter in the book of my life. Make me steadfast and unwavering. Take away my fear of the cross. Take away my fear of making more sacrifices.

Bless all my friends especially Thess, Vera, Ellen, Ironnie, Dunstan, and Toni/nonblogger who have been so good to me, who have been praying for me, and who have been wishing what is best for me. Grant my prayers for them as they also need graces and blessings on their own needs and intentions in their lives.

  1. thanks for the prayers papa dom. i think it is but natural to fear crosses. even Jesus asked if it was possible that the cup be taken from him but he left everything to God's will.

    the safest place to be is to be in His will.
