DAY 1
MORNING PRAYER
Today, let us take a little bit of our time to
appreciate the world around us and the people we love. Let us reflect on the
beauty of life and the gifts we are given. Also, let us thank God for guiding
us, as we grow closer to his loving grace.
God our father,
We thank You for providing us with endless love
and never-ending compassion.
May we live as followers of Your faith,
and guide others, as You have guided us.
Give us the strength to forgive,
for only through mercy can we grasp
the extent of Your universal love.
Gather us as one loving family,
through Christ our Lord.
