A prayer for today

Holy God,

Each new morning is a new opportunity.

Grant us the newness that rest within it.

Open our eyes afresh.

Grant us hope anew.

Wake us with restored hope and energy to faces the challenges ahead.

Surround us with your comfort and your peace.

Guide us to bring your light into the world—

May your kindness, your compassion, and your grace be our guiding principles.

May we find comfort in the knowledge that you are our God.

And may this day bring us joy in you.

Amen
