Thy Kingdom Come

Our Heavenly Father, help us to be so attentive to the still small voice of our Teacher and Guide, the Holy Spirit, that whether we eat or drink, or whatever we do this day shall all be done to Your glory.

We desire that Thy Kingdom come and Thy will be done in our hearts, our home, our city, our country, and in all the earth. We so desire this, that here and now we offer You our bodies, our minds, our reputations, our characters and our lives, and ask You to use each and all as seems best to You.

So teach us and train us by Your Word and daily Providence's that we shall trust You daily for our daily needs, and witness for You by being peaceful and joyous in disappointment, adversity, or affliction, as in prosperity.

"When we forget God's love for us in Christ, our love wanes, and we become focused on ourselves, our work, and our reputation...Failing to concentrate on God's love for us in Christ isn't a trivial thing. It will always eventuate in apathetic living. Only the gospel can so invigorate us that we BURN WITH ARDOR for Him in all that we do." -Elyse Fitzpatrick, Because He Loves Me

Amen.
