August 8

Our Eternal Hope,
We thank you Lord for the new, clean, fresh start of the day. Thank you for the quiet blank of the morning hours. Thank you that we can begin again by asking for forgiveness and You make our slate white. We ask that You give us thoughts, words, looks and actions that rely Christ and Christ alone, no matter the situation, no matter how our flesh would like to respond. We need the outpouring of Your Holy Spirit in order to reflect the image of the Divine. Stay by our side. And when we blow it Lord, help us to be quick to repent. We die to self today and come on the Winning Side. I thank you that You cherish us as Your treasure. Give us the hope of Your soon return, is my prayer in Christ's name, Amen.
