Blessed are the poor in spirit

Blessed are the poor in spirit.  

Humble and grateful I come to you.  Please empty me of my selfishness and foolish pride.  I am a small child of yours, you are God my Father. I love you and I have so much to learn. The only possession I have is your love.  Thank you for creating me and the patience to mold me, thank you for the protecting me from things that destroy me.  Without the love you place in my heart I have nothing to offer anything, anyone, not even myself.  Your blessings to me are too gracious, I pray that I honor you with both every blessing and every suffering I receive.  Please remind me daily who I am and who you are so I will not waste even one moment to vanity and forget who I belong to.  Show me what you would have me do, open my eyes and ears, open my heart. Today is yours and I am yours.  Thank you for loving me like you do.
