Dear Lord, I pray that I may not just call out to you with empty words, but that I may truly do your will and follow your commands. Help me to be obedient to your Father in heaven and to live a life that is pleasing to you. May I enter into your Kingdom with joy and thanksgiving, knowing that I have done your will and followed your ways. Amen.
