Thank you Lord

"Dear Lord, as I am preparing for this day, I gaze out my window and marvel at the beauty of the sunrise, the cool mornings remind me of the coming of Autumn, when your paintbrush covers the landscape with an array of colors. I never get tired of enjoying this world you created. Never tire of the wonder of it all. Thank you Lord, for the beauty of this earth.

As I plan this day, I know I have challenges before me, there will be people I will meet, some for the first time and others whom I know well. Thank you for all of these opportunities to share your love and grace. Use me to brighten the day of others, those who know me well, and those who do not. Let me be your light that shines through the darkness.

Thank you Lord, for my family, for the opportunities I have to read with my son, to fix my daughters hair, to take them to school. Every minute I have with them are opportunities to make memories that may last their lifetime. Let them be good memories.

Thank you Lord, for this day. Let me be your vessel that carries your light, love and grace.

In the Name of Jesus the Christ I pray, Amen"
