Lord, in your mercy hear my prayer.

It’s a great morning that you have woken me up to see. Thank you for cooling things down and sending a cool breeze last night. I can’t wait to see what else you have in store.

Bless me to follow your guidance today. Lead me in all I do so that my efforts will bear good fruit. Let me stay knitted to you. Help me to exercise good self-care and invest in myself.

Bless the soldiers of the world, dear Father. Protect them from dangers and trials. Hasten the day when they can turn their swords into ploughs and study war no more.

Thank you for cradling me in the palm of your hand. You are a faithful and loving God. I rejoice in your goodness and mercy. It is in Jesus’ name and for his sake I pray.

Amen
