SPIRITUALLY REWARDING

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your unconditional love.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to say, “Thank you.” They know that it is only by your grace that they have life on this blessed morning. Therefore, instead of dwelling on what isn’t going right, they focus on the gift of life.

Father, help all to take time out of their busy schedules to appreciate you through your Son, Jesus Christ. Help them to realize that life is full of ups and downs, wins and losses, good and bad, as well as advances and setbacks. However, worshipping you through your Son, Jesus Christ, through it all, is spiritually rewarding.
