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.
