Thanks be to God

Lord I thank you for the challenge given to me to share my faith with others. Please help me to be open to using my gifts and the talents that you have given me. I pray that I can continue to develop in my gifts and abilities and to use them in the best way possible to serve as you would intend me to serve. I pray that I am open and willing to receive new gifts and new talents and to be open to the possibility of change as you see fit. I pray that you will guide me and instruct me today and help me to rise to the best of my ability.
I pray all these things through your name.
