PRAYER OF THE DAY - Psalms 147:5
Dear God, as this new day dawns, we gather in spirit to thank You for Your infinite goodness and greatness. Your understanding is immeasurable and Your wisdom is unfathomable. As we prepare to face the opportunities and challenges this day holds, we ask for Your guidance and Your constant presence in our lives.
Lord, with humble hearts, we recognize our dependence on You. We know that in our human limitations, we often fail to see the clear path before us. But we trust that Your infinite wisdom will guide us every step of the way. Help us to seek Your will in every decision we make today, and to act with integrity and love in all our actions.
Give us strength, Lord, to face adversity with courage and determination, knowing that Your greatness is beyond any difficulty we may encounter. May we find comfort in Your presence, even in the storms of life, and may Your peace, which passes all understanding, calm our restless hearts.
Lord, may on this day we be instruments of Your peace and goodness in the world. Help us to be compassionate and merciful to those around us, reflecting Your infinite understanding and love. May our words and actions inspire hope and joy, and may we be light in times of darkness for others.
Bless our work, our interactions and our thoughts. May every task we undertake be done with excellence and for Your glory. Teach us to see Your hand in all things and to be grateful for every little blessing we receive.
In the name of the universal Love that sustains us, the Spirit that guides us and the Strength that protects us, we pray.
Amen.
