The Morning Prayer
Thursday, December 14, 2023

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and for ever.
Hebrews 13:8 (RSV)

Heavenly Father, as the morning light cascades upon Your creation, we come before You in humble adoration, reminded by Your word in Hebrews 13:8 that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

We praise You, O Lord, for the constancy of Your love, the steadfastness of Your mercy, and the unchanging nature of Your grace. In a world of shifting shadows, Your truth stands eternal, a beacon of hope for all generations.

Gracious God, as we embark upon the tasks of this day, may we anchor our hearts in the unchanging nature of Christ. Help us to emulate His love and compassion in our interactions, His wisdom in our decisions, and His humility in our service.

Bless us with the peace that comes from knowing Jesus is our unwavering foundation. Amidst the ebbs and flows of life, may we rest in the assurance of His eternal kingship, and may our spirits remain undisturbed by the transient trials of this world.

Lord, just as the sun rises without fail, so does Your Son shine upon us. Grant us the strength to face the day with courage and the wisdom to see Your hand at work in all things.

We ask for Your guidance, that we may live this day in a manner that is pleasing to You, reflecting the unchangeable nature of our Savior. May our lives be a testament to the One who was, who is, and who is to come.

In Jesus' Name, we pray, Amen.

I hope this prayer resonates with you and brings comfort and peace to your morning.
