PRAYER
Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me. At times I am blind to your presence and deaf to your leading. Yet I know you are my salvation and my refuge. I am grateful for your kind and gentle heart. With my eyes focused on you, I will follow your leading and rest in the shelter of your arms. Amen. (Daily Texts, Ground Up Grace edition)
