Created and Sustained // A Prayer from Today's Psalms // July 8, 2025
Lord, our Lord, open my heart and mind today to delight in your magnificent goodness and greatness. Remind me of your power shown in creating everything out of nothing: the earth, the universe...every molecule of substance, created and sustained by your constant power and wisdom. Lord, grant me humility today. Move my heart towards gratitude and obedience and worship in all that you have done, are doing, and will do for the sake of your glory and our greatest good. Make me keenly aware of the selfish, willfully disobedient part of my heart and mind. Make me see how I am searching for love and success and satisfaction in all the wrong places. Make me to know afresh how created things can never truly satisfy my hunger and thirst for my the One Who created me. I put my hope in you, Lord. Bring me out of anxiety. Bring to an end my loneliness. Bring me to you! Open my heart and mind to shout and sing in jubilant joy in you our Lord, our King! A Prayer base...
