Usa ka prayer na ako ganahan kay kini by St. Therese de Lesieux:

"May today there be peace within.
May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be.
May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith.
May you use those gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you.
May you be confident knowing you are a child of God.
Let this presence settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love.
It is there for each and every one of us"

It's very humbling... and it makes me stop on my tracks and wonder about God's infinite mercy.

A Prayer for Humility
Because the first must be the last
And only little ones can pass
Beyond the gate--narrow and small
Where God is waiting for us all.

Jesus, lift my spirit up
I raise to You my empty cup
As I approach the narrow way
Make me a little one today.

1 Corinthians 13:1-8a and 13
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails....And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. (NIV)

Psalm 28:7

The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to him in song.

Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong.

2 Corinthians 12:7-10



7To keep me from becoming conceited because of these surpassingly great revelations, there was given me a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. 8Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. 9But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. 10That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.


I like Paul's Epistles a lot.

thanks for this post. i have been looking for this verse. i read this one before. some of it's lines were stuck in my head, especially the last one, but couldn't seem to remember which of Paul's epistles it was found in. i like it a lot since, for me, it captures what it means to live as a Christian.

i think you can post your song here... songs are poems anyway
