Almighty God, Creator and Sovereign of all, slow me down for I am moving too fast. Sometimes I do not realise Your blessings until they are past. Frequently I jet along at high speed to my destination only to end up circling in a holding pattern. Life also has it’s own holding patterns, which require me to wait. Yet I am not very good at waiting; I usually want my desires met yesterday. Help me to trust in Your timings; You are always on time
Today help me to enjoy life as it unfolds to live to the fullest in each hour, and to relish the sheer wonder of Your grace and goodness. Open my eyes so that I may see Your glory in the people and opportunities You give me. Unstop the ears of my heart so that I may hear Your guidance. Release my will from the bondage of my selfish attitudes so that I can act on what You have called me to do. And replenish my physical strength so that I can have resiliency for each challenge.
If life dishes out to me a holding pattern today, may I use it wisely…to remember where I have been by Your grace, and where I am going under Your guidance. Thank You my dear Heavenly Father in Jesus Name. Amen.
