OUR
Heavenly Father, a new day opens before us — grant that we may enter its
portals with gratitude for every mercy of the past, and with a melody of praise
in our hearts. We are deeply conscious of our sin, and are unworthy of Thy
loving kindness. We realize our dependence upon Thee, and we beg Thee for Thy
presence with us during the coming day. Forbid that we should shirk any duty,
or murmur at any trial. Keep us sweet and hopeful; make us kind in word and
thought; and save us from "the rashness of unguarded moments."
We pray for those whom we love, and for all who do not love
us. We pray for the stranger, the poor, the sick, the lonely, the sorrowing,
and the wayward. Grant Thy presence to all who labor in Thy Name the world
over, and send forth more workers into the vineyard. For our own home circle we
pray, and for that larger circle of the world. Bless little children
everywhere, and the helpless aged. Let wars cease upon the earth, and the
Prince of Peace rule in all lands. Make us unselfish in our dealings with each
one, and help us so to serve Thee this day, that at its close we may go to our
rest conscious of Thy presence and Thy approval; we ask in our Savior’s Name. Amen.
Rev. George W. McDaniel,
