Dear Lord,
I thank You for this day.
I thank You for my being able to see and to hear this morning.
I'm blessed because You are a forgiving God
and an understanding God.
You have done so much for me and You keep on blessing me.
Forgive me this day for everything I have done, said or thought that
was not pleasing to you. I ask now for Your forgiveness. Please keep
me safe from all danger and harm. Help me to start this day with a
new attitude and plenty of gratitude. Let me make the best of each
and every day to clear my mind so that I can hear from You.
Please broaden my mind that I can accept what I do not understand..
Let me not whine and whimper over things I have no control over. Let
me continue to see sin through God's eyes and acknowledge it as evil.
And when I sin, let me repent, and confess with my mouth my
wrongdoing, and receive the forgiveness of God.
And when this world closes in on me, let me remember Jesus' example -
to slip away and find a quiet place to pray. It's the best response
when I'm pushed beyond my limits. I know that when I can't pray, You
listen to my heart.
Continue to use me to do Your will. Continue to bless me that I may
be a blessing to others. Keep me strong that I may help the weak.
Keep me uplifted that I may have words of encouragement for others. I
pray for those who are lost and can't find their way.
I pray for those who are misjudged and misunderstood. I pray for
those who don't know You intimately. . I pray for those who don't
believe. But I thank you that I believe. I believe that God changes
people and God changes things. I pray for all my sisters and
brothers. For each and every family member in their households. I
pray for peace, love and joy in their homes that they are out of debt
and all their needs are met.
I pray that every eye that reads this knows there is no problem,
circumstance, or situation greater than God. Every battle is in Your
hands for You to fight. I pray that these words be received into the
hearts of every eye that sees them and every mouth that confesses
them willingly.
This is my prayer.
In Jesus' Precious Name,
Amen.
The author of this beautiful prayer is unknown, But was most
certainly inspired by our Our Father Who Art In Heaven.
