When we give, I think God is more concerned with our attitude than what we offer or even the quantity of our offering. Lord, stop us from grumbling or complaining when we are asked to share your gifts. Give us cheerful hearts and willing spirits.
May we not only hear your word, O Lord, but comprehend it.
May we not just say your word, but live it.
Let your word turn into works and cause my faith to turn into action!
Father Almighty, thank you for every hour with which we have been blessed. Show us how to use them wisely. Don’t let us waste a single moment today with negative thoughts or actions. Teach us how to use this day to honor you and your gifts and live a life of joy and thanksgiving.
Help me, Oh God, to let go of my fears and reach out to you at all times, secure in the knowledge that you will steady me when I tremble and catch me when I fall. Thank you for always being at my side.
He came so we could have everything we need: everlasting life, God’s unconditional love, His never-ending forgiveness, and His ever-present guidance. What more could we possibly want?
Oh Lord, it’s not enough to just believe in you; many people do that. We must do more; we actually have to believe you! Help us overcome our unbelief so that we really do rely on your presence, trust in the power of your promises, and expect you to do the impossible.
