Dear heavenly Father God,
This morning we come before You to ask that You strengthen and encourage us to keep pressing forward into Your will and according to Your will. We ask that You help us to avoid the temptations to say and do evil, yet give us strength to resist those temptations when they are unavoidable. We ask that You enlighten those around us to see Your life at work in our lives, Lord Jesus. And we ask that You would let those in whom we come in contact would see the change in our lives. Let them see the hope that we have. Reveal Yourself to them even through us! In our human efforts, it is very hard, if not impossible, to change. And those that do not know You, Father God, do not understand how quickly we are changed when we trust You. We ask that You show them the change, even the beginning of change. Let the lies and deceit fall from their eyes even as if it were a colored, or oddly curved, lens that's been filtering and distorting the truth. Help those around us finally see the truth for what it actually is before it is too late. Help us, Lord, to know Your love and to share that love with the whole world, especially with those who make it so very difficult to be around let alone love.
Amen
