Daily Devotion - Friday, October 9

Prayer

“God put a new song in my mouth,
a song of praise to our God.”

I'd like to conclude this week's devotions with this prayer by Roberta Porter. May you have a weekend filled with many creative expressions of love, peace and joy.

A Prayer for Becoming
by Roberta Porter

“Lord,
may I live each day
creatively, in you,
beginning with thanks for life itself,
for life in you.

"May I find my gifts, knowing
in the searching I am becoming
who you created me to be.

"May I use these gifts
to serve each task
as serving you, seeing in the work
and in others
your face, your light.

"And, at the end of the day
may I rest in your grace,
always grateful.
Amen.”
