Today’s prayer
Written prayerWhen I look at everything You’ve blessed me with in my life Lord, I stand in awe and reverence at all the times You’ve come through for me and for all the times You’ve lavished me with provision. As I think about today's story from Luke I am reminded through the life of the rich glutton that the purpose for blessing us is to be a blessing to others. May my life be first known by my love for You God and second by the generosity I lived by. With every new year I will not ask how much I can make, I will ask instead how much I can give. With this paradigm shift I acknowledge that blessing and abundance are a byproduct of my generous heart. For the life of the stingy gets smaller and smaller while the life of the generous gets larger and larger! Because I am a change agent I am always in tune with the needs of Your children Lord, whether time, talents, or treasures, I will give where I can because You’ve blessed me so much!
In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
