Today Lord,.

I feel you stirring in the innermost recesses of my soul. I feel the churning of your spirit and I am listening.

Invite me into the secret place of your counsel that I may k.now your heart in the coming days.

Set me in place that my feet can not be moved. Protect me from the terror of the night and the arrows of the day. May I find refuge under the shelter of your wings.

When there is coldness , draw me into the flaming burden of your heart, that I may share your tears.

When there is hardness, melt me with once glance of your eyes that I may be pliable clay in your hands.

When I hesitate, reach for me with your scared hands, that I may see and believe and know.

When I feel outside, show me the place you prepared for me in our Fathers House.

Teach my lips to speak truth.

Unite my heart to serve you.

Keep my gaze steady and fixed that I will not waver in the coming storm.

Open my ears to hear the sound of heaven as I walk the roads of Earth.

May I carry with me always the oil and the wine as I tread upon the Bloody Way that is my own Jericho Road.

Give me eyes to see the alienated and perishing brother and sister in the ditch.

Train my hands for war.

The real war against a lukewarm and apathetic spirit.

May I give willingly when redemption is costly.

Clean hands,

Pure Heart

Open Eyes

Strength in the innermost part of my being.

I ask this today, Lord. All for today.
