O Eternal, and Everlasting God...Increase my faith in the sweet - TopicsExpress



          

O Eternal, and Everlasting God...Increase my faith in the sweet promises of the gospel; give me repentance from dead works; pardon my wanderings, & direct my thoughts unto Thyself, the God of my salvation; teach me how to live in Thy fear, labor in Thy service, and ever to run in the ways of Thy commandments; make me always watchful over my heart, that neither the terrors of conscience, the loathing of holy duties, the love of sin, nor an unwillingness to depart this life, may cast me into a spiritual slumber, but daily frame me more & more into the likeness of Thy son Jesus Christ...may I live in Thy fear & die in Thy favor...Bless my family, friends & kindred. Unite us all in praising & glorifying Thee in all our works begun, continued, and ended... ~a portion from George Washingtons prayer journal, 1752 (age 20)
