The joy of the Lord is my strength!

Thank you for new mercies every morning, including the gift of sweet life. It is a beautiful day because you are with me. I am so glad you are the friend that sticks closer than a brother.

It is Palm Sunday, Lord, and I want to celebrate you with all that I am while singing Hosanna. Give me a spirit of praise and worship. Let me encounter the Risen Lord.

Bless the sick, loving Father. Heal them of all that ails them and restore them to perfect health in your goodness and mercy. Encourage them and their caregivers.

Every day is a day of thanksgiving. Keep me in your grace and cover all that I think, say, and do. It is in Jesus’ name and for his sake I pray.

Amen
