Search me, O God, and know my heart; try me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there be any hurtful way in me and lead me in the everlasting way.
Psalm 139:23-24
Our Father who art in heaven hallowed be Thy name.
Abba, Papa, Adonai, Elohim, Daddy, You are everywhere and in everything I see and don’t see with my eyes. You are part of me and in every person. You are in the animals, trees, grass, rocks, water, fish, and insects. You are even in the things in the world that I cannot see with my naked eye. How amazing are You. There is no where I can be without Your presence, nowhere. Your Love is in me, part of me and all around me. Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing Your Holiness with me and everything. I would not be here without You, for you are my Creator and Love.
Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
Your kingdom is all around. Awaken me, so my eyes open to see everything with new sight. To see the beauty in everything. To see beauty in every flower, tree, and insect. Let me see Your beauty in every person—the homeless on the street and even the people who have hurt me the most. I desire You, all of You, and wish only to respond to all from a place of Love. For that is why I am here. To remember who I am, Love in form. Doing Your will is my joy. To follow Your will is Love. That is all any want – Love. Let me soak in that Love every moment by seeing Love in everything. In doing so, I respond here on earth as it is in heaven. I am a co-creator with You and choose to create only as You, the good, the holy and the beautiful.
Give us this day, our daily bread,
Papa, I know all that happens to me this day has a purpose. I have made the choice to awaken from my slumber and want to grow in You. Everything that comes into my path today will help me to grow, to remember who I am. If I get stuck in traffic, let me remember Love. I will use the time to tap into the other cars and send each one Love. I will notice the trees around and the sun or moon. I will love the rain You send and appreciate all the people who have worked on the roads and who built my car. I know You will also bring the correct teachers, lessons, and books to help me correct my distorted views.
And forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us.
You see not my faults and failings; all You see is my love. Thank You for the feeling of guilt. For it is a gentle way of letting me know I have stepped out of alignment from who I truly am. I desire to look at others with compassion and an open heart in the way You look at me. Bring everything I have made in error to the surface of my thoughts and mind for correction. So each day I grow more into who I truly am.
Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil.
When my ego is screaming to react in anger or despair, l shall quiet down and listen to the still small voice within; Your beautiful Spirit which is in me. Your gentle voice will show me the way out of any situation lovingly. When I move out of alignment and follow the noise of the world, gently call me back. So often I look around me and get caught up in the world. I, like a child, need to be reminded of what I truly want, which is to do Thy will.
For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever.
You are everything. Your power gives me strength for it is within me. Let me share your glory with all.
Amen.
Let it be so.
