God you declared in your word that you would keep those who trust you in perfect peace and we stand in agreement with your word and although we ourselves are not perfect we commit today to trust you perfectly and we receive in exchange for our perfect trust your perfect peace.
This psalm presents us with pattern and principle for praying through challenging times. It is short. It is simple. It is sincere.
Today’s pray focus is on the sacrificial life that Jesus lived. As I am preparing to put my body through hell in order to live I am reminded that Jesus walked the same road and for that I am grateful and inspired.
God in a world and in a time filled with so much hatred grant us the power to extend your love to all of your creation. Help us to honor those also made in your image even if we disapprove or disagree. God humble is where we need a dose of humility and forgive us for devaluing one another. Help us to love others the way that you love us. Unconditionally.
As we approach the choosing of a president let us be mindful of the choice that matters most. You chose the church to change the world. You chose your followers to preach the gospel. You chose us to make disciples. You chose your people to bring about your Kingdom.
