"O Lord, give us more charity, more self-denial, more likeness to you. Teach us to sacrifice our comforts to others, and our likings for the sake of doing good. Make us kindly in thought, gentle in word, generous in deed. Teach us that it is better to give than to receive; better to forget ourselves than put ourselves forward; better to minister than to be ministered to. And to you, the God of love, be glory and praise forever. Amen." ~~Henry Alford (1810-1871)
I love reading the prayers of those godly people that lived and prayed so many years ago. There has always been those who love the Lord deeply. May it be said of us, in our generation we were those godly praying people.
Amen
