Today’s Prayer

Let me dwell on the transcendent truth of Your all-consuming love. My heart questions how You can see all of me and say it is good. I am burdened with the consciousness of my own fallible nature. I deplore my tendency toward unbelief. Yet Your forgiveness encompasses all my follies. In prayerful confession, I lament my infirmities so that I may perceive the fullness of Your grace. It is a glorious mystery that You rejoice over Your bride. Make faith sparkle within my soul. I delight to do Your will, my Lord and my God. With gratitude, I dwell on the tender mercy of my salvation. I rejoice in the exaltation of being glorified by Your grace. Though I perceive my own imperfections and shortcomings, I turn my gaze upon the cross and see only beauty in the restoration of the original design. Truly, You are making all things new. My soul overflows in divine exclamation of rapturous joy. My prayer is a marvelous declaration in response to Your abundant love. Give me words, Lord, to express my identity in You. Touch my actions with divine intervention. Bring me to the depth of Your infinite heart so that I may gain wisdom. Blessed be the Name of the Lord. Under the revelation of Psalm 5:11 and the authority of Christ Jesus, I pray.

But let all who take refuge in You be glad;
    let them ever sing for joy.
Spread Your protection over them,
    that those who love Your Name may rejoice in you.
Psalm 5:11, NIV
