Satisfy us each morning with your unfailing love,
so we may sing for joy to the end of our lives.
1 TIMOTHY 1:5 (MSG)
The whole point of what we’re urging is simply love—love uncontaminated by self-interest and counterfeit faith, a life open to God.
THE ESSENCE
God's love, implanted in us through Christ, is what keeps us going day-in-day out, until the end of our days and beyond.
DAILY FODDER
A question to ponder throughout today: What is it about Christ’s love that refreshes me on an ongoing basis?
PRAYER
God, you are love and your love holds everything together, including my life. Forgive me for pursuing self-help to keep things going. There are lots of good ideas out there but they all end up falling short of what I truly need. Your love is already present and active. Shower me in it so that I start off each day refreshed by the awareness of what I have been given by Christ. I'm going to revel in your uninteruptable unending love. Amen
THE LORD’S PRAYER (ABP)
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.

Give us enough food for today.
Forgive us our wrongdoing,
and we’ll forgive those who have wronged us.
Shield us from the trials and temptations that come our way.
Lastly, we pray that you will protect us from all forms of evil. Amen.
