Scripture & Prayer Submitted by: Marianna Beard

Father God, you deserve all the glory, all the honor and all the praise! I come before you with a heart of gratitude. I thank you, first for salvation; through your Son’s atoning sacrifice I have been saved from sin and death. I thank you for my new life in you and I pray that our relationship grows stronger with each day. I pray that I may decrease so that You may increase in me. 

You are a good, good Father and You satisfy all our desires. You know all our needs and hear us when we cry out to you.  I pray that your children will put their hope and trust in You. Let us never forget that you are on your throne and you, God, are in control of all things.  

You have called us to be different from this world; to show love and live in peace with one another. I pray that this world will not influence your children, but in all things be thankful. Let us be the salt and the light that this world depressively needs. Let us be witnesses of your great love and compassion. Thank you for giving us a spirit of power, love and of a sound mind.

I thank you for who You are, not for what you have done, of what you are going to do, but simply for who You are!      

Amen
