Good Morning Jesus
Opening Sentance
“See, I am going to bring them from the land of the north, and gather them from the furthest parts of the earth,” says the Lord.. . . . Jeremiah 31:8
Always be joyful, pray continually;
give thanks, whatever happens.
Psalm 26
1 Vindicate me, O Lord, for I have walked in my integrity, and I have trusted in the Lord without wavering. 2 Prove me, O Lord, and try me; test my heart and mind. 3 For your steadfast love is before my eyes, and I walk in faithfulness to you. 4 I do not sit with the worthless, nor do I consort with hypocrites; 5 I hate the company of evildoers, and will not sit with the wicked. 6 I wash my hands in innocence, and go around your altar, O Lord, 7 singing aloud a song of thanksgiving, and telling all your wondrous deeds. 8 O Lord, I love the house in which you dwell, and the place where your glory abides. 9 Do not sweep me away with sinners, nor my life with the bloodthirsty, 10 those in whose hands are evil devices, and whose right hands are full of bribes. 11 But as for me, I walk in my integrity; redeem me, and be gracious to me. 12 My foot stands on level ground; in the great congregation I will bless the Lord.
Morning Prayer
God,
Help us love the life we live right now.
Show us the good things we often overlook
and help us be content with what we have.
Forgive us when we compare ourselves to others,
Forgive us for longing for things outside of you
and your kingdom.
Thank you for loving us right where we are,
just as we are.
Help us to keep our eyes on you.
In Jesus’ Name,
Amen.
