Blessed Jesus,

Thank you for this new day and thank you for being the rock that is steady and strong. “Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.” (Isaiah 60:1) Because we know You will not forsake us, we are grounded in faith, steadfastly Yours. “The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge…” (Psalm 18:2)

Thank you for clearing out the densest darkness. We know, any procedure of that type is not pleasant, but You have helped us build strength and gain wisdom. Please God, Preserve our world for our children. Raise us up out of the darkness into Light. For the old systems are crumbling, and a Bright New future awaits. We are One Nation Under God. We are understanding more and more what that means. Our hearts are responding to Your Holy Call. Calling us to Rise; Guiding us forward. This is Your World; You are King; We are Yours. Thank you for Loving us. Thank you for so carefully preparing us. For Blessing us with the experiences that cleanse, purify and strengthen. Blessing us with the gift of Life, and the honor to serve You this day.

“I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” (John 8:12)

You our One True Christ Our King, Amen.
