I've been reading bits now and then from "The Valley of Vision: A Collection of Puritan Prayers & Devotions." One of the entries is titled "Spiritual Growth" and contains some great lines of prayer:
Give me a tender, wakeful conscience that can smite and torment me when I sin.
How easy it is to become dull to the voice and leading of the Holy Spirit.
May I be consistent in conversation and conduct, the same alone as in company.
Integrity: a priceless attribute.
Help me to carry into ordinary life portions of divine truth and use them on suitable occasions, so that its doctrines my inform, its warnings caution, its rules guide, its promises comfort me.
Sola scriptura! God's Word give me everything I need for life and godliness.
