Good day everyone. Praise the Lord for another day and another chance to get on the right path. Today’s meal involves my personal prayer and a prayer from Apostle Paul that is a reminder that there is always someone going to God in prayer on your behalf.
Today’s Prayer
Father, we are human and we are weak apart from Your strength and power. We tend to stumble through life and need Your hand to pick us up and to keep us on the right path. When we run into problems, we want to run to You, our Rock and our Shelter. You are the One who can calm our spirit and bless our soul. We need Your guidance and Your wisdom to make the right choices and do the right things. We pray for Your help and Your mercy and we thank You for hearing the prayer of Your humble children. Please protect us and our loved ones from all harm and evil. In Jesus’ wonderful name we pray, Amen.
Let’s eat.
Paul’s Prayer for Spiritual Empowering
Ephesians 3:14-21
When I think of the wisdom and scope of God’s plan, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father, the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth. I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will give you mighty inner strength through his Holy Spirit. And I pray that Christ will be more and more at home in your hearts as you trust in him. May your roots go down deep into the soil of God’s marvelous love. And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love really is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is so great you will never fully understand it. Then you will be filled with the fullness of life and power that comes from God. Now glory be to God! By his mighty power at work within us, he is able to accomplish infinitely more than we would ever dare to ask or hope. May he be given glory in the church and in Christ Jesus forever and ever through endless ages. Amen.
Quote of the Day
To praise God fully we must suppose ourselves to be in perfect love with God, drowned in, dissolved by that delight which, far from remaining pent up within ourselves as incommunicable bliss, flows out from us incessantly again in effortless and perfect _expression. Our joy is no more separable from the praise in which it liberates and utters itself than the brightness a mirror receives is separable from the brightness it sheds.
(Clive Staples) C. S. Lewis
