Selfless

Lord help me live from day to day
In such a self-forgetful way,
That even when I kneel to pray
My prayers will be for others.

Others, Lord, yes others,
Let this my motto be;
Help me to live for others,
That I might live like Thee.

This is so beautiful! Thank you for sharing it! :-> BTW, I'm about to read 'A Young Woman After God's Own Heart' too! I'd love to know what you think of it, if you'd like to consider posting a book review about it or something! :->

Oh, that very exciting that you are reading it too. This is my third time reading it. Normally I just read a book once but this one is just so good. That is a really good idea about posting a book review. Maybe we could both post reviews and then compare them.

Janel, I'd love it if we both posted reviews on the book and compared them. That would be a lot of fun! :->

I'm glad you girls liked the poem too. It is amazing how much a poem can encourage one.

Okay, Elizabeth. Did you want to post them at the same time? Just let me know when you finish the book.
