A Prayer to Stretch Our Morning Minutes with God | Your Daily Prayer
“For you have been born again, but not to a life that will quickly end. Your new life will last forever because it comes from the eternal, living word of God.” - 1 Peter 1:23
When we turn our lives over to Jesus, our lives begin anew. We can’t escape sin or the effects of it in this world…not completely. God is there to meet us in the mess and help us embrace godly joy, which helps the hope of Christ Jesus bloom in all circumstances of our lives, whether easy or difficult. The older I get, the more dependent I become on my quiet morning conversations with God through prayer and His Word. As the decades drift by and my daughters grow up, I cling to His promises of hope, joy, peace, and wisdom. He is faithful in replacing my scattered thoughts and schedules with His grand plan for the day and my life.
