Today's Prayer: Lord, You alone are the Author or our lives, and you alone order our steps.
You call us to remember that our time on earth is “a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.”
Will you to remind us today that our time belongs to you and that your ways are always greater?
Remind us today our own ways, our own plans, may seem fruitful in the eyes of the world but that Your ways will produce everlasting fruit.
As we consider how we spend our days, would you bring to our attention areas where we are reluctant to offer you full control? Would you lead us in repentance and help us turn our hearts toward you?
Thank you, Father, for graciously allowing us to join you in your work.
Open our eyes to those around us. Open our eyes to those who are hurting and searching. Open our eyes to where you are at work.
Let us not neglect the work we know we are called to in your Word.
As we go about our days, let our words “always be gracious, seasoned with salt” as you instruct us in Colossians chapter 4. Let us speak your truth in love. And let us remember that our actions often speak louder than our words.
Lord, we place our schedules in your hands today.
Lead us.
Reveal where you are at work.
Give us the strength and wisdom we need to join you in your work today.
For thine is the Kingdom, and the power, and the glory forever…AMEN.
