Thank you Heavenly Father for all that I have acquired in possession and all that I have gained in spiritual growth by thy hand.  My home is a wonderful place of refuge for thou has blessed it and thy word is a standard that we try to achieve and learn upon rising and laying down.  At times much time is passed in enjoyment of thy blessings that I have not sought thy work through out my days.  I am mindful of thy constant watch over me but pleasures of possessions has drawn me into momentary idleness and vain of heart.  My days were consumed with maintaining worldly goods that I have neglected to worship thee many mornings and nights.  I have allowed thy goodness to consume my heart and i became busy body dwelling in pleasure that I have neglected to observe thy commandment.  I have not pray unto thee for straight and narrow path into eternal life nor did I pray for those who are in need of thy salvation for their souls.  The devil has lead me carefully down to iniquity and I have allowed evil thoughts to sway me from my promise unto thee to be faithful in obedience till thy return.  In my deep remorse and shame I have come unto thee for forgiveness and to seek spirit of Holy Ghost to be within me once again and my heart sought thee sincerely and truthfully.  I went about doing good and looked forward to what's before me in serving thee and thy people.  My prayers and study of thy word has granted me renewed conviction and inspiration to follow thy son Jesus Christ.  As often as thou provides for every meal and every raiment, please sow in our hardened hearts true love for thy word and heart of a true servant.  My desire is to have thy heart and be able to know and understand thy people through thy merciful eyes.  My desire is to perform thy works with joy and provide true need and comfort unto thy people. Please help us to see the truth of thy light and as much as thou grants us sunshine and rain, grant us new heart that only seeks things of purity and virtue.  Grant us heart that can be disciplined and humbled to thy will Heavenly Father.  Help us be strengthened that our hope in thee cannot be wavered in midst of persecution and offenses.  As much as thou sustains our life, grant us heart to desire thy glory in our suffering and trials for only thou art worthy of our praise, thanksgiving, and sacrifice of our will.

Thank you Heavenly Father for this day of peace in my heart and making me be right with my friends and family.  My unintentional offenses upon others causes me great affliction and I dwell in remorseful misery.  But words of self condemnation has parted from me due to answered prayer and now I am confident in my steps and in my ability in doing thy work.  I am confident to face challenges for thou has help me to not fear mistakes and failures but to persevere with hope of achieving goodness in the end someday. I will try all endeavors that is required of me with thy help and trust that thou will carry me through.  I will do my best in all that I must do for in trying, thy mercy will bring me up to where thy grace will keep me.  Much in life seems daunting but in meditation of thy words I am comforted by warmth swelling up in my soul assuring me that Holy Ghost is with me always.  I can find thee in every meditation of thy word, in my prayers unto thee, and in my thoughts of thy creation.  In my weakness, help me to remember my confidence in thee to help me up and not waiver in my obedience to thy  commandments.  Help me to never deter from my testimony of thy truth for it is my foundation of faith in thy Holy Spirit.  I count on thy almighty power to render me thy wisdom, understanding, and intelligence to achieving all goodness that thou would lead me to perform.  Please show me the way that I should go and be in all things and in all situations to fulfill thy work.  My great weaknesses require thy constant attention and my words are heavenward many times a day for thy intercession to be my strength and my guide.  Thank you for granting me the love of my family and for great atonement of Jesus Christ through whom i can live eternally with my family in thy rest.  My soul is at ease for thy eternal plan for us are already at work to perfect us some day in likeness of Jesus Christ.  Thy words guide us into path of righteousness to grant us goodly judgements on the last day.  Thank you Heavenly Father for gift of Jesus Christ for he has paid for our sins that upon repentance our offenses are forgiven by the payment of suffering He has paid long ago.  Our Lord Jesus Christ has made a way for us to acquire fullness of joy in eternity upon living life of obedience and repentance while in this mortal body.  With instruction of thy word  I am changed to mature in spirit for I am learning to be better and love deeper with every trial, mistakes,and pain in this life.  I love thee Heavenly Father for thou bring us up as babes, being patient in long suffering and merciful in thy blessings that brings us much joy and peace to this mortal body.
