You made me for a reason.
How better to pray to you, Lord, than to express gratitude for all your works and creation?
Am I not one of your creations, Lord?
❖
As I seek to grow and become all you would have me be, I come to realize that I am perfectly made. You fashioned me for a purpose, even as I wonder at what it might be.
Let me see and accept myself as I am, Lord — and so accept your will for me.
Thy will be done.

Consider:
Can I accept myself?
