A Morning Prayer
Lord Jesus, at the beginning of this new day, align my spirit with yours. Remind me of your cross and Kingdom today.
Spirit of God, bring to my mind the truth found only in Christ. Guide my steps and lead me today.
Father Almighty, provide my daily bread. Give me space and opportunity to place my trust in you today.
Psalm 145
Every day I will praise you and extol your name. Great is YHWH and most worthy of praise;
his greatness no one can fathom.
Glory be to the Father,
and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever.
Lord, have mercy on me.
Help me live in your righteousness today.
Help me die to myself today.
Help me understand your suffering so I can be glorified with you.
Help me become like you.
Lord your spirit lives in me. In you, I am love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-controlled.
Lord Jesus, help me become like you.

Silence**
God of mercy, forgive me and make me like you. You guide me each day. As I go forth, be my support and my God. My trust is in you.
If I live by the Spirit, let me also walk by the Spirit. Lord Jesus, this day is yours.
Amen.
