Prayer To Be Used By The Lord

Heavenly Father, I thank You for the pastors and ministries that You have provided to teach me Your Word and to be a support and encouragement in my Christian life. Help me to be willing and prepared to be used by You to minister to others, to encourage the body of Christ and to edify those that are called my Your name. Thank You that You have given to each one gifts, abilities, talents and treasures according to Your grace and I pray that You would use all that I am and all that I have to be an offering, a living sacrifice to be poured out in the service of others and to the glory of Your name. Amen.
