We Remember Edward the Confessor, King of England, 1066
Sunday
Today we pray for those living in Glasgow Street, Stirling Street, Holyrood Road, Hamlet Green, Gibson Close, and Littlewood Close
Please pray for all those involved in the Ukrainian War
especially all those injured and killed
Morning ;
Lord, may nothing separate me from You today.
Teach me how to choose only Your way today
so each step will lead me closer to You.
Help me walk by the Word and not my feelings.
Help me to keep my heart pure and undivided.
Protect me from my own careless
thoughts, words, and actions.
And keep me from being distracted by MY wants,
MY desires, MY thoughts on how things should be.
Help me to embrace what comes my way as an opportunity . . .
rather than a personal inconvenience.
And finally, help me to rest in the truth of Psalm 86:13,
“Great is your love toward me”.
You already see the ways I will fall short and mess up.
But right now,
I consciously tuck Your whisper of absolute love for
me into the deepest part of my heart.
I recognize Your love for me is not based on my performance.
You love me warts and all. That's amazing.
But what's most amazing is that
the Saviour of the world would desire a few minutes with me this morning.
Lord, help me to forever remember
what a gift it is to sit with You like this. Amen.

Evening
O Lord our God,
keep us in peace during this night and at all times.
Keep our hearts and thoughts secure in holy reverence for you,
so that we may be protected at all times
from the snares of the enemy.
And let us offer blessing and glory
to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,
now and forever and unto the ages of ages. Amen.
(Armenian Prayer)
