Lord, in your mercy hear my prayer.

I opened my eyes this morning to see you smiling at me, what a wonderful way to wake up. Thank you for giving me this day and all that it contains. You are my bright sunrise.

Help me be fully present and engaged today. Grant that I make progress on my tasks. Give me a balanced day where I get to feed all of my passions and interests. Keep me calm.

Bless those with mental illness, Lord. Heal them and restore them so that they are able to thrive. Give them the support team that they need. Help me to be more considerate to all.

This is the day you have made, Father. Help me to fully appreciate it and give you all the glory. Let your light shine fully. It is in Jesus’ name and for his sake I pray.

Amen
