“...and be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ has forgiven you.” Ephesians 4:32

Dear Father God,

I praise You and thank You for creating us with hearts fully capable of loving You and others deeply.

Grant that I guard my heart from the evil one, preserving it for You first and my neighbor second.

Create in me a clean heart, soft and tender, fully forgiving and patient and kind, disregarding all malice.

Grant me a heart full of good works today and encouraging others to do the same; to become more surrendered to Your will, Your plan, Your timing, Your path, Your doors.

Use me mightily today, in the name of Jesus, as a tool for the kingdom, as Your will is done. Lead me, guide me, in the name of Jesus, amen.
