Good morning, Bascom followers and Brothers and Sisters in Christ!
When the day began to dawn, there was a thick cloud cover, and the day appeared to have the makings for another cold and dreary day. Yet, as I delayed getting my thoughts together, the clouds began to break, and the sun began to shine through.
I think we all have days like that. We wake up already frustrated, in a bad mood, and gloomy. Then, as the day progresses the gloom gives way as little bits of sunshine slowly brighten our day.
That is my prayer for each of you on this day. That the weights of the world, that we wake to each day, become fewer and lighter as we place our trust in God through the faith that His will for our day brings us peace. The peace that envelopes our lives as we become attentive to the blessings He provides, and the opportunities we have, to bring Him glory. It is impossible to stay in a bad mood when you give praise to God and serve to bring Him glory.
Let’s pray together –
Our most gracious and loving heavenly Father, your children praise you for all your creation and blessings that we have received by your grace alone. Father, we pray for those in need this morning. We pray that their day is filled with your comforting presence. Father, as we walk in this world, let all our hearts focus on your loving relationship with us, as we trust through faith, that you have conquered the world. All that we need is you in our lives. Even in the midst of troubles and chaos, you are our refuge. Search our hearts and unburden our spirits that we might better serve your will. These things we pray in Jesus holy name. Amen.
