I ask two things from you, Lord. Don’t refuse me before I die. Keep me from lying and being dishonest. And don’t make me either rich or poor; just give me enough food for each day. If I have too much, I might reject you and say, “I don’t know the Lord.” If I am poor, I might steal and disgrace the name of my God. [Proverbs 30:7-9 (NCV)]

When we get right down to it, our prayers don’t have to be complicated and our needs are few. What will you ask of Him today?

Day by day, Day by day,
Oh, Dear Lord, Three things I pray:
To see thee more clearly,
Love thee more dearly,
Follow thee more nearly,
Day by day.

[“Day by Day” from the musical Godspell; music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz]
