The joy of the Lord is my strength!

Thank you for this day of life. I woke up super tired, but I know that you will strengthen me and give me all the energy that I need to make it through the day and be fully present.

Help me to enter into your joy today. Help me to rejoice in you no matter what the day brings. Let me pour all that you have given me into the task at hand and produce good fruit.

Bless the downhearted, loving Father. Encourage them and lift them up by your love. Grant them restoration of their optimism and faith in you. Help them to be happy and joyous.

This new day is going to be a great day. You will give me all I need to thrive and flourish. Let me give you all the praise and glory. It is in Jesus’ name and for his sake I pray.

Amen
