Prayer for a Better Me Day 3: Better Friend

Truly Lord, You have made us as a social being. I thank you Father for the friendship that I am enjoying with the people around me. I pray that I may be the friend they can count on in times they needed one. I ask this through the Mighty Name of Jesus, our Best Friend. Amen.

Prayer for a Better Me Day 2: Better Brother

Heavenly Father, I thank you to have my sisters who had been supporting to me in all the endeavors that I had chosen to do. I ask you, my dear God, to make me a better brother to them, ever ready to stand in defense for them and to be a light in them through times that they encounter darkness. I ask this through our Brother, Jesus Christ. Amen.

Prayer for a Better Me Day 1: Prayer to be a Better Son

Heavenly Father, 27 years ago, you gave me to papa and mama as your answer to their desire to have a son. I humbly ask You, Almighty King, that I may be the son they deserve and that I may live truly as Your gift to them. I ask this through Jesus Christ, The Lord, The Perfect Model of a Son, Amen.

Eulogy

Last night in the news, the father of the young actor who died in a car crash told how his son was - a loving, good son.

Now I wonder, when it would be my time to pass, what will people say about me. Will my family say "He's a good boy. He's loving. He's nice."? Will my friend consider me their best friend? I just wonder what I was to them.

I wonder how I had lived my life in the sight of everyone. How was I as a brother, or as a son, or as a friend? I wonder, what will the people hear on my eulogy. Moreover, will there be people attending it?

I don't know. What I do know is that I lived, am living and will live my life the way I know I should be.

PS: I am not wishing for my death soon. I don't want to die yet. Just the thought of it freaks me out. This was just a sudden thought in my mind.

The Day is Coming

This is my prayer for tonight: That the day will come when I finally meet a partner that will love me back. The day when I will no longer settle for just what was left, rather for what I am worth. The day when I will no longer be sleeping with a heavy heart but with but a smile in my face and a spirit full of hope and of joy.

I pray for a partner that will understand me, that will lift me up, that will cheer me up. A partner that will make me feel good about myself. Of whom is seeing the good in me rather the flaws I have. A partner that I love and loves me back.

I am deleting all the past hurts. I am deleting everything that will remind me of how I was unlovable. I am deleting everything that reminds me how crazy I had been.

From now on, I will be living my life in joy, in hope, in anticipation of the love that is to come - my future wife.

The day is coming. It will.
I hope. I believe. I pray.
