Heavenly Father,
As I begin this new day, I lift my heart to You in gratitude and praise. I give thanks for the gift of life and for all the blessings You have bestowed upon me. I humbly ask for Your guidance and protection as I go about my daily tasks. Give me the strength and wisdom to make good decisions and to serve You in all that I do.
I lift up to You those I love, and I pray for all those in need. Please bring healing to the sick and comfort to the troubled. I pray for those who are facing difficult situations, may they find hope and peace in You.
I trust in Your love and grace, and I know that with You by my side, I can face any challenge that comes my way. I pray that I may be an instrument of Your love and grace to others and that my actions may bring glory to Your name.
In the precious name of Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen.
