Dear heavenly Father,

     I come to You this morning with thanksgiving.  Thank You for waking me up.  Thanks for helping me get plenty of rest through the night.  I ask for Your guidance and protection today as I go about my day to day.  Help me serve You with my every thought and action.  Use me to bless those that You set me near today.  Help me to see the needs of those around me and reach out in Your name to meet their needs.  Please help me not to lose sight or focus of You as I go through today's business.  Remind me to keep my ears open and tuned in to Your voice Lord.  And help me to make the time to rest in the silence and wait upon You.
     I hope to talk to You again soon God.

Amen
