{blessings}

May God bless you and every person you meet today with good health, happiness, and prosperity.

May God’s blessings be too large to allow for worry, may your actions be too noble to invite jealousy, and may your faith overcome your fear.

May you be blessed with a constant happiness that repels trouble, banishes resentment, and always invokes the loving presence of God.

Look at the sunny side of your every encounter, think the best of the people you meet, and expect only the best because God is cooking up delicious blessings today!

Thankfully, you have been blessed with a full life. And that’s why you always make time to help others. By being a generous giver, you are also a gracious receiver of God’s rewards.

Prayer for Monday
Thank You, God, for Monday. The day set aside for starting anew, getting on with it, resuming a productive life. It’s a day for work, commerce, and accomplishment. How great are Your gifts to us! How marvelous are we! All Praise to You.

All the Drama
Dear God, there are so many days where I grow weary with this world. All the pain. All the drama. All the toil. But I know You are here, and I am only a breath away from a constant conversation with You. Teach me to encounter bits of Your glory, tastes of heaven all over the earth. Hannah Brencher

Ancient Language of Prayer
Dear God, I cry out to You in the ancient language of the soul. My prayer speaks volumes. You hear it, You know it, You answer me. Blessed are You, O God, Who created us in Your image and Who has blessed us with the language of prayer.

Prayer for Patience
Learning patience can try one’s patience. Help me in the waiting with Your gentle touch. Praise to You, O God, You are with me always.

Dark Skies
When the sky is overcast, and dark clouds stud Your heavens, it’s then that my radiant soul works the hardest. How easy it is to glorify You when the sun is shining, how gratifying to do it in darkness. Blessed are You, almighty, all-weather God, who sees me through good times and bad.
