Dear God, tasks have piled up. Please grant me the energy to address these without shirking. I so easily fall into idleness and distraction. Indeed, I seek out such things. Let me have and exhibit the quality of diligence. Let me regard this as its own form of prayer.
Dear Lord, let me be the person whom you would have me be. Vanquish the self in me, take it away. Remove my character flaws and let me be willing to live with virtue. Let me be changed.
May your will be done today, in all things. May it be worked upon me, that I may better reflect you.
(Letter #884)
