Heavenly Father,
We come before You this morning with humble hearts, filled with gratitude and thanksgiving. We praise You for the gift of life and the blessings that come with each new day. Lord, guide us and lead us on the path You have set before us. We trust in Your goodness and faithfulness, knowing that You are always with us.
As we go about our day, we ask for Your protection and strength. Help us to face the challenges that come our way with courage and grace. Give us the wisdom we need to make good decisions and to serve You in all that we do.
We lift up those who are in need of Your healing and comfort. We pray for those who are sick, those who are facing difficulties and hardships, and those who are going through difficult times. Be with them, comfort them, and give them peace.
We pray for Your guidance for our leaders and for Your peace in the world.
All this we ask in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and savior. Amen.
