Loving God, as I embark on the adventure of this new day, I will imagine you as my mother or father, teaching me to walk with cords of human kindness and love, a tether as you guide me along. Therefore I will not fear failure or worry that I will not have enough time or goods if I give a little to those in need. Amen.
8/10/25
I greet this new day with joy, O Lord, for you are my light and my hope. Do not let me fall prey to the anxieties of this world, or be tempted by false charms, but keep me ever faithful to you, for Jesus’ sake. Amen.
8/17/25
Holy God, at your word the sun rises to greet us, and we are new each morning. Be with me as I begin this day, that my faith would be reckoned righteous by you, and my works find favor in your sight. Amen.
8/24/25
On this new day, Lord, make me watchful for all that you are doing in the world; keep me faithful, that I may do your will in all things and hold me in your grace, as I seek to do the same for all I meet. Amen.
8/31/25
Lord of Life, we greet this new day sustained by the great cloud of witnesses who praise your name. Help us to lay aside any burden or distraction that might prevent us from fully serving you this day. Give us perseverance and joy so that we may come to the end of the day confident in your presence and aware of your blessings. Amen.
