For Goodness and Mercy, Oh Lord, We Pray
Most of all, Lord God, will You help us to let your goodness and mercy inform what we say and do in our day-to-day living?

Lord, we ask that You prepare our hearts to meet You today, maybe in some surprising places. We find strength when we are resting with God.
Lord, we are so glad that we can sing our prayers to You! Often, singing is the only way we can muster up the words and connect with the emotions.
Focus on the LORD and never forget to praise Him at all times. Let our thoughts, energies and actions reflect this.
