DAY 2

MORNING PRAYER
                                                                Dear God,
As we live our busy lives,
help us to remember all the great blessings you have given us,
and to keep those who are less fortunate in our thoughts and prayers.
May you help us reach out to those who are suffering
and in need of comforting in our community.
When it seems like there is so much negativity in our world,
help us to be a positive light.
Through Christ our Lord,
Amen
