21. Go With Grace
Each morning of this month
When you rise upon your bed,
May it be with renewed grace
To face the day ahead.
Each morning of this month

May it be with renewed grace

I lifted you to the Lord today
as I spent some time in prayer.
I asked God to be near you
and your burdens help you bear.

Lord, it's a mountain you gave me to climb,
and I've had my share of mountains behind.
Each time I've climbed I depended on faith
to guide me along with each step I take.
I want to be brave.
I want to be smart.
I want to be saved.
I want a new start.
She bowed her head, closed her eyes,
As she began to pray.
She said, "Dear God, watch over her.
Keep her in Your tender care today."
Whether we speak from our lips
or from the depth of our hearts,
our thoughts and words go out
as we reach upward to God.
Lord, I pray
Each and every day
For those who suffer from
Grief and pain.
In the stillness of the morning,
while the world was still asleep,
the sun was hidden under cover
and silence was strong and deep.
Father, I thank you for the days and nights,
And thank you for this warm morning light.
For food and shelter, for your loving care,
And for all in this world that is good and fair.
I desire, dear Lord,
To cultivate the habit,
Of keeping in touch with You,
Minute by minute.
Hold my hand, dear Lord,
As I daily follow you.
This journey before me,
You alone can see me through.
I got down on my knees,
Begging you, Lord, please
Take away all this pain
Before I go insane.
No one knows what I feel today
Or that I'm dying inside.
No one knows the pain I'm in,
For it's nothing a smile can't hide.
Lord, when I worry about the bills,
Knowing I don't have money-making skills,
Please be my complete provider,
As well as my ever present minder.
Travelers in the Sea of Life,
being guided by worry and strife,
floating rudderless toward desperate straights,
drifting aimlessly towards whatever awaits,
