To be like Jesus every day.
    To love my neighbor along the way.

To try to show the kind of love
    That brings forth blessings from above.

To forgive those who bring me pain
    That I might, my Father's forgiveness, gain.

To walk with those brought down by sorrow,
    And try my best, their yoke, to borrow.

To care for those whom others shun
    The way that Jesus might have done.

To please my Father in Heaven above
    As I delight within His love.

And, as my shadow in the sun
    Lengthens, as my day is done,

My evening prayer is a simple one:
    Please, help me be more like your Son.
