A Modern Psalm

Dear God,
I offer my body to you to use.
I offer my mind to think on you and you word,
to study the Bible and be creative in ways to server you.
I offer my eyes to look on what is good, pure, and righteous
not the sinful lusts of the world.
I offer my eyes to look for needs of others so I can share your grace with them.
I offer my ears to listen to you and your guidance and
to listen to others without always having to give advice.
I offer my mouth to speak the truth as defined by you, the author of truth and
to speak words of hope and comfort to a sinful dying world.
I offer my shoulders to bear the burden of others.
I offer my heart to share in the pain and joy of others.
I offer my arms and legs to prepare meals, to hug a child, to hold the Bible and
to gently guide the elderly and disabled.
I offer my legs and feet to walk to my brother to
seek forgiveness when I have failed him and you.

My whole body is yours oh God.
I offer my body a living sacrifice to praise and serve you.
Amen.
