A Morning Reflection
O Lord, as I open my eyes this morning, and before I lift my head
from this pillow, I open my heart to embrace You, to the fullest
extent the blindness of my flesh and the dullness of my
doubts allow.
I cannot see You, yet with all the faith I have, I sense You near. I
cannot understand You, but I trust You. I cannot fathom
You, but I love You. And with my heart I want this
day to walk with You.
To walk in purity and holiness.
To walk in joy and gentleness.
To walk in love and service.
To walk in submission and humility.
To walk in creativity and confidence.
To walk in hope and thankfulness.
To walk in praise and proclamation.
To walk in generosity and community.
With fond memories and bright dreams.
And I believe Your grace is sufficient for me, in the power
of Your indwelling Spirit, before the light of your word,
and under the blood of Your Son. Sufficient come
what may, even in the midst of bungling
sinfulness. For You remember me
even when I forget You.
So I breathe this prayer confidently and joyfully, in the
strong Name of Jesus Christ, my Lord and
Savior, "the hope of all the ends of the
earth and of the farthest seas."
Amen
