Declare My innocence O
Abba; for I am full of grace and truth; I have trusted in Your strength
and Your ability and not My own; In You, I shall not be moved;
Strengthen Me, O Abba,
instruct Me by Your Spirit; so that I may grow in Your wisdom and
stature;
My heart is persuaded of
Your loving-kindness; daily it is before My eyes; as I walk in Your
truth;
I have not partaken of
the emptiness in the world with those who labor without benefit;
neither do I give heed to the wisdom of the blind;
I have abhorred the
corrupted wisdom of those laboring and toiling to preserve their life;
and I am set against the hardships they lay upon men too hard to bear;
I
am innocent; not boasting in the works of My own hands; rather I am
fully persuaded to rely only in Your strength and ability, O Abba;
So
that I might hear and declare with thanksgiving, Your goodness and
loving-kindness and all Your wonderful works;
Abba,
I love being Your dwelling place; for in Me, all can behold where Your
good view and opinion of man dwells;
Gather
Me not with the dead or allow Me to see corruption; with those who
devise hardships, and their ways which bring corrupt rewards upon men;
I
walk in innocence; trusting only in You, Abba; redeem My life from
destruction;
Let
Us show forth Your good view and opinion and loving-kindness toward all
people in Me;
Let
Us provide My testimony as their sure foundation; that as the first
born from among the dead, at Your right hand, will I speak an eternal
word to all who place their trust in You, of the same glory and
immortality to be revealed in them.
