A Prayer for the Morning link

In my waking and arising
be the first thought that enters my head
In my eating and drinking
be the first thought that enters my head
In my walking and journeying
be the first thought that enters my head
In my working and serving
be the first thought that enters my head
In my sowing and harvesting
be the first thought that enters my head
In my rejoicing and sorrowing
be the first thought that enters my head
In my resting and sleeping
be the first thought that enters my head
Amen


A Prayer of Augustine link

Breathe into me, Holy Spirit,
that my thoughts may all be holy.

Move in me, Holy Spirit,
that my work, too, may be holy.

Attract my heart, Holy Spirit,
that I may love only what is holy.

Strengthen me, Holy Spirit,
that I may defend all that is holy.

Protect me, Holy Spirit,
that I may always be holy.
Amen

Scripture Reading:  2 Timothy 3: 16-17 (NASB Bible Gateway)

All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work.


A Prayer Poem by CS Lewis link

Master they say that when I seem
To be in speech with you,
Since you make no replies, it’s all a dream
– One talker aping two.

The are half right, but not as they
imagine; rather, I
Seek in myself the things I meant to say,
And lo! The well’s are dry.

Then, seeing me empty, you forsake
The listener’s role, and through
My dead lips breathe and into utterance wake
The thoughts I never knew.

And thus you neither need reply
Nor can; thus while we seem
Two talking, thou art One forever, and I
No dreamer, but thy dream.
Amen


A "Going Out Into the World" Prayer link

This is your world I step upon
the air I breathe
the food I eat
This is your world I step upon
the sounds I hear
the people I meet
This is your world I step upon
your footsteps 
where I place my feet
Help me to remember
Amen

    Thank you Paul! I loved your “Buffalo-wing” teaching! I might add that it’s not only the scriptural support you provide that is so edifying, but the manner of delivery that is so warm and non-confrontational. You not only present the truth with conviction, but still challenge listeners to search the scriptures for themselves as the Bereans did.

    I look forward to hearing the continuation of this series in June.

    Thank you Deb for the beautiful hymns and prayers. I was especially blessed by Amy Grant’s “El Shaddai.”
