FOR KIDS “A Prayer to Start the Day” Thank you, Lord, for this brand-new day. Keep me safe, keep me strong, I pray. Guide my actions, shape my thoughts, tell me what to say. Help me to follow your good, pure way. Amen. [from A Book of Prayers for Kids: Ways to Talk to God Every Day] [go HERE for an audio version of this prayer and a printable PDF] FOR ADULTS “A Morning Prayer” Dear Lord, As this day begins I confess that I will need you every moment. I long to know you more deeply today. Help me in what I say to other people. Give me wisdom for each decision I will make. Make love and truth the motives behind everything I do. And when I fall short, help me not to give up, but to find an extra measure of your strength. This day is your creation and your gift. I commit my body and spirit to your good purposes. In Jesus’ name, Amen. [from Prayers for Our Lives: 95 Lifelines to God for Everyday Circumstances] LISTEN to audio version of this and other prayers |
