MORNING PRAYER 

Dear Heavenly Father,

I thank You for this day. I thank You for my

 being able to awake once again, 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 continue to bless me.

Please forgive me every day for anything I have done,

 said or thought that was not pleasing to You, and

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 all things.

Let me not whine and whimper over things I have no control over.

Let me continue to see sin through Your eyes and acknowledge

 it as evil. And when I sin, let me repent, and confess

 with my mouth my wrongdoing, and receive Your forgiveness.

And when this world closes in on me, let me remember

the example of Jesus — to slip away and find a quiet place to pray.

It is the best response when I’m pushed beyond my limits.

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, and I thank you that

 You are in my heart and that I do believe and have true faith in You.

I believe that You change people and You can change all things.

I pray for all my sisters and brothers, and 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 You.

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, and I pray in the name of Jesus

Our Father,

Who art in he Our Father, Who art in heaven,

hallowed be Thy name; Thy kingdom come;

Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses

as we forgive those who trespass against us; and

lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

AMEN
