Following In Jesus Christ Footsteps

Good Morning to You ! 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
all things.

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 that are lost
and can't find their way. I pray for those that
are misjudged and misunderstood. I pray
for those who don't know You intimately. I
pray for those that 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.

I ask this according to Thy will and in the name
of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Amen.
