Exodus 20:11 · KJV

Today’s prayer

Written prayer

Lord for six days you were busy creating heaven and earth and all that is within them. That is a lot of creating! On the seventh day, you stood back and rested in appreciation for all you accomplished. There is a satisfaction that comes from a job well done. It's important to enjoy what we have created with our hands and be satisfied. Help me know when to work and be productive and when to stand back and be happy with what I have done. Help me rest in the satisfaction of productivity instead of anticipating what else I need to do. Teach me to enjoy what I have done. Amen.
