GOD’S LOVE, GRACE, AND MERCY! 

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to give you all the praise for another blessed morning in Christ. They are grateful for another opportunity to turn their wrongs to rights, sadness to joy, doubt to faith, and from a dependency on others to a dependency upon you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, and your Holy Spirit. 

Father, help all to push through their troubles and focus on the blessings you continuously bestow upon them. Help them to understand that the inflictions that they endure now will eventually lead to a stronger dependency upon you, through your Son, Jesus Christ; increased faith, resiliency, and a stronger drive to carry out the mission at hand.

“Grace, mercy, and peace belong to us, flowing from the presence of God the Father and from Jesus Christ, Son of the Father, and from the realm of true love.”         2 John 1:3

DEPENDING ON THE LORD

Father, praise your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your continued blessings.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to say, “Thank you.”  If it were not for your love, grace, and mercy, they would not be able to withstand their downs in life.

Instead of focusing on negativity, they understand that they have to learn to take the bad with the good because nothing in life is perfect. 

Father, help all to understand that they have a choice to allow their circumstances to dictate their walk in life, or they can give all their worries to you, readjust their mindset, and push forward knowing that you will never forsake them nor allow them to become overly burdened by things or situations that they have no control over.

Help them to further understand that you are a constant in their lives. Therefore, keep depending on you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for all things.
