August 17

Our Father of the dawn,
Morning has spoken. It is a new day. Yesterday is gone, along with its many cares. As we forge forward, may we talk faith, hope and courage. May our yay be yay and our nay be nay. May we prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Let the words of our mouth be pleasing to You. May we run and not be weary and walk and not faint. May we not count ourselves to have apprehended but one thing we will do...; press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. We bow and say, Amen.
