Prayer from Psalm 116:7

Father, You have made it possible for us to rest.  You've made it possible for us to find deep contentment in You.  You've made it possible for us to understand true goodness.  

"Return to your rest, my soul,

    for the LORD has been good to you."

Jesus, my rest will not be found in anything but You.  My rest comes in following You with everything I am.  My rest comes in answering Your call to living a with-God life here and now. 

"Return to your rest, my soul,

    for the LORD has been good to you."

Spirit, You connect with my soul in a way nothing else can.  You connect my soul to what is truly life giving.  You connect my soul to pure love.  

"Return to your rest, my soul,

    for the LORD has been good to you."

Amen

Prayer from Galatians 5:25

A Daily Office  Good morning Jesus. Today I choose You.   I choose to live by the Spirit. Today I choose to keep in step with the Spirit (Galatians 5:25). I do not claim to be without sin.  I confess my sins to You.   Make me aware of any offensive way in me. I believe you are faithful and just. I believe you forgive me and purify me from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:8-9). I humble myself before You. Lift me up. I cast all my anxiety on You. Care for me (1 Peter 5:6-7). May I know and trust that You are with me today (Matthew 28:20). Amen

Prayer from Ruth 3:5

Father, give me a servant's heart that proclaims with Ruth, I will do whatever you say.    Taking time to answer someone's questions.  I will do whatever You say. Washing dishes.  I will do whatever You say. Listening to my kids.  I will do whatever You say. Pausing my work to sit in Your prescence.  I will do whatever You say. Picking up the phone to talk to a stranger.  I will do whatever You say. Giving someone a ride.  I will do whatever You say. Helping a friend.  I will do whatever You say. Loving an enemy.  I will do whatever You say. Amen Ruth 3:5 "I will do whatever you say," Ruth answered.
