My Prayer for Today

Today has been such a gloomy day, but in the midst there are so many things to be thankful for, because God is faithful.

I woke up on the wrong side of the bed yesterday and fell back asleep there last night. To say the least, this morning I was feeling a little beaten up. I love to sleep, but lately I feel the Lord calling me to wake up early, no matter the time I go to bed, to spend time in His word and to start my day with His perspective. I'm struggling, but this morning as I was on my way to work, the Lord prompted me to pray for holiness, in everything I do. To pray simply, "everything I am for Your kingdom come, Lord". Which tomorrow means, everything I am to get up and start my day the way He is calling me to, in His word. This is my TRUEST desire. That my life would be a testament of Him, in all things. That when I wake up cranky, He would give me all I need to rise up out of the ashes and live in His beauty. I am thankful for the Holy Spirit to guide me to a place I could never get to alone. I am thankful that He calls us to not be about ourselves, but His business and to be about blessing His people, His creation, and to be about praising Him even when our flesh strives to pull us back to the pit.

Even when the days around us are not "good", they are always good in Christ.

Many blessings to all of you today who struggle. I know the Lord will give me, and you what we need to press on through our daily struggles and show us how to glorify His Holy name.

In Christ, Gather in,

Jess
