Prayer from Job 23:1-17

Father, like Job, I admit there are times when it's hard to know what You're up to or feel Your presence.  I imagine this is where Job is speaking from in Job 23.  There are times where I'm searching for answers in the dark, rather than searching for You.  

Correct me, Spirit that brings forth God's light.  

There are also those times where I'm not sure if it's the darkness of our enemy, the world, others, or myself that has me pinned down and confused.

Forgive me, Spirit that brings forth God's light.

May I grow in child-like faith in these moments.  I pray I would pray when I don't want to pray.  Like Job, may I not be silenced by the darkness around me.  May I turn to You, the Light of the World.    

Heal me, Spirit that brings forth God's light.  

Amen

Job 23:17

Yet I am not silenced by the darkness, by the thick darkness that covers my face.

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
