Today’s prayer
Written prayerGod, thank You for filling the world with things that are true and honorable, good and right and pure. Thank You for the beauty, the loveliness, the excellence. Thank You for all the things that bring joy to me, all the things that are positive and uplifting. There are so many, many of these things! Give me eyes to see them, and a heart to understand and appreciate them. Help me to focus on these things, in obedience to Your Word today. Yes, today I declare that I will walk in the light of Your love and the joy of Your salvation. I will choose to celebrate Your goodness, Your faithfulness. I will choose to stay hopeful and joyful, no matter what happens to me. I will count my blessings. I will look for others who need help or need hope or just need a little more joy in their day—and I will give it to them, in Jesus’ name. Lord, I ask You to show me what to do and what to say. Use me to encourage and inspire everyone around me today. Let Your love and Your joy and Your light shine through me. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
