Our Daily Prayer for Wednesday - Millie McFarland

Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.
— Proverbs 3:5-6 (NKJV)

Prayer submitted by: Millie McFarland

Eternal Father, I lift my voice in praise and worship to you. Thanking you for letting me see the start of a new day. I lift my hearts cry to your throne room of grace.

Heavenly Father, give us a heart that is sensitive towards the hurting. Open our eyes to see and open our ears to hear where your spirit is leading. Help us see each person the way You see them. Give us a heart of compassion to feel what they are going through. Father, teach us to love the way you love us.

Father, open our hearts to cry with those who cry and to mourn with those who mourn. For the word says, "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit". (Psalms 34:18 NIV) Father, wrap your arms around those brokenhearted due to the loss of a loved one. Comfort them with your precious Holy Spirit.

Father, purify our hearts and let us genuinely seek your face. Open up our understanding; teach us to lean on you; as you direct our paths. Envelop us with your hope, joy, mercy and your peace. Remind us that we are all your children and that you love us all unconditionally. Give us your heart that we may love in the same manor.

Father, give us an undying desire for your word and continue to draw us closer to you. I thank and praise you for who you are, and for hearing my hearts cry. In Jesus name I pray.

Amen
