IN THE MORNING

Reformation Day

PSALM 59:16 (CEB)
But me? I will sing of your strength!
In the morning I will shout out loud
     about your faithful love
          because you have been my stronghold,
          my shelter when I was distraught.


MARK 1:35 (MSG)
While it was still night, way before dawn, he got up and went out to a secluded spot and prayed.

SUMMARY SENTENCE

Start each day celebrating God's provision.

PRAYER
Thank you, God, for taking good care of me -- for sending Jesus to pray for me -- for getting me through the difficult times. I confess that I have struggled with doubts but those morning meetings seem to keep me on track. Help me to stay the course and to start all my days celebrating your faithfulness and love. In the name of Christ Jesus, I pray. Amen.
