Prayer for strength

 

Lord Jesus Christ, teach me to walk humbly before God. 

 Help me to recognize that without heaven's help,

 I will accomplish nothing.

  Humbly, I ask God for all the strength I need that I do not have 

and thank Him for His continuous and admirable help.

  Asking him to come to the aid of so many poor sinners who are like me, 

liable to fall seriously if they do not receive very special help from on high. 

 Humbly and believing that the Almighty is always by our side 

like the air around us, like the light that surrounds us during the day, 

and at all present times to help those who ask for support. 

 Lord may I walk humbly in your presence, 

may I never tire of asking for your help 

and may I always fulfill that advice of St. Paul. 

 "We must seek holiness, with fear and trembling

 because I can easily fall into temptation.

Amen.
