Morning Prayer

 A Communion Prayer

 

Sometimes I feel lonely,

though I know You reside in me.

May I always be aware of Your presence

and Your love for me.

May we be soul to soul

in peace and joy.

 

I feel like I’m always waiting

on a bus that never comes,

waiting to understand

how to live my life,

knowing I’m on path

You want me on.

I always feel like

I’m just not doing life right.

  

Lord, fill me with the knowledge of Your will

through all the wisdom and understanding

that the Spirit gives, like Paul wrote.

 

May I have joy in knowing

You smile on me,

You say well done

good and faithful servant,

that I’m accepted in the beloved. 

 

May I have the joy

in knowing that you like me,

you laugh with me,

You walk with me

and squeeze my hand.

 

I long for Your favor

like You have with Daniel.

Lord, this is what I want above all else

and that’s why I feel

 so disappointed in myself

in how I spend my time.

Help me truly prioritize

with Kingdom eyes.

 

And even in all my mistakes,

dumb things I do,

missing the mark,

wasting my time

and wrong priorities,

help truly rest in knowing

You love me as I am.
