A prayer

Methodist Covenant Prayer
“I am no longer my own but yours. Put me to what you will, rank me with whom you will;
put me to doing, put me to suffering; let me be employed for you or laid aside for you,
exalted for you or brought low for you; let me be full, let me be empty, let me have all things, let me have nothing;
I freely and wholeheartedly yield all things to your pleasure and disposal.
And now, glorious and blessed God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, you are mine and I am yours. So be it.
And the covenant made on earth, let it be ratified in heaven.
Amen.”

What a deep prayer - where did you come across it? It is so esoteric it ought to be Franciscan? Do you know which Methodist penned it?

Grace and peace, A

Enough kow-towing to God already.

When will God's ego trip end?
