“Lord, let me not live to be useless!”

“Work me Lord, work me Lord.
Please don't you leave me,
I feel so useless down here
With no one to love
Though I've looked everywhere
And I can't find me anybody to love,
To feel my care.”

“Resentment is one of the few emotions that never lets you down, but it’s useless. In fact, it’s worse than useless, it’s harmful, and we all suffer from it at some time in our lives.”

“Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love.”

“Poor, poor pitiful me.
Poor, poor pitiful me.
These young girls won't let me be.
Lord have mercy on me.
Woe is me.”

“Lord, give me the heart of a child, and the awesome courage to live it out as an adult.”

“I come to Thee, O Christ. Faint and perishing, defenceless and needy, with many a sin and many a fear, to Thee I turn, for Thou hast died for me, and for me Thou dost live. Be Thou my shelter and strong tower. Give me to drink of living water. Let me rest in Thee while in this weary land; and let Thy sweet love, my Brother and my Lord, be mine all on earth and the heaven of my heaven.”

“His will is our hiding place. Lord Jesus, keep me in your will! Don't let me go mad by poking about outside of it!”

“Oh! make me Thine forever;
And should I fainting be,
Lord! let me never, never,
Outlive my love to Thee!”

“If you can spend a perfectly useless afternoon in a perfectly useless manner, you have learned how to live”
