A MORNING PRAYER

Lord, This is the day you have made.  That means much in how I live this day.  I will rejoice and be glad in it as I delight in your presence.  I will be intentional in it to do your purposes.  Open my eyes to the people whose paths I will cross.  Help me live and speak the Gospel clearly.  Make me a friend filled with kindness and care.  Help me love the stranger the way you love me.  Make me a vessel of your compassion to others.  Help me fight selfishness and self-centerdness. Remind me that all I do is to be for your glory.  Amen
