In Christ it is always “YES!”

I’m sleepy this morning, LORD. Help me to be awake and alert. Keeping my mind stayed on You will give me gratitude and a zest for life. Whatever the problem, You are always the answer.

Bless me to have a clear and focused mind today. Help me be fully present and use the gifts You have given me to the fullest. Grant that I may grow in Your grace and be a blessing to others.

Save the lives of all those still trapped by the earthquake in Turkey and Syria, Father Mother God. Give strength and guidance to the rescuers, heal the injured, and comfort the grieving. Stir our hearts to give all the support they need.

I am more awake and excited about this day at the end of this prayer than I was at the beginning. That’s how You work LORD. It is in Jesus’ name and for his sake I pray.

Amen
