Today I am posting a prayer that I wrote for morning and evening. Someone once said in a talk that I heard that they literally took life one day at a time, by placing a one page per day desk calendar on their bedstand. They would wake up and ‘face the day’ and pray that it would be entirely in God’s hands. At night they would pray, ‘give the day back to God,’ then tear that day off the calendar, scrunch it up, put it in the bin, and shut their eyes.
This is a prayer like that, a wake up and give God in everything prayer, and a give it all back before you sleep prayer.
Be encouraged, be blessed as you do just that today.
Lots of love,
L
Morning
I am convinced that you alone are God
And I will be still
For you have a story to tell
As the dawn breaks
Before the morning star fades
You are speaking
Waking the world with a quiver through the trees
Before the first bird calls you have your say
You speak hope
You speak peace
You speak joy into the brand new day
You speak your mercy new every morning
To my heart
Here I am Lord
Thank you
Send me
Evening
I am convinced that you alone are God
And I will be still
For you have a story to tell
As the sun sets
And the moon dances on the waves
You are speaking
As the wind polishes the sky of dust
In the hush you will have your say
You speak love
You speak faith
You speak forgiveness into the deeds of the day
You speak your grace new every evening
To my heartHere I am LordThank youRest me
