Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank You for the gift of today. In these end days when time is short, fuel me with the urgency required to maximize the talents You gave me to return to You a thousand fold. Continue to nourish me in the Eucharist, passion, and sacrifice of Jesus.

Fill me with the grace that Jesus readily extends to all who call on His name. It is in surrender to Jesus that our chains are broken, forgiveness achieved, when we attain peace and joy. Lord, I place all my trust in You. Through you, I can do all things, in Your power and strength.

Your will be done today. Strengthen my grip on Your sword and shield as I navigate the broken world today. Loosen my grip on my ego and pride so that I acknowledge You in all things, giving thanks always, and praying without ceasing.

Send Your Angels to protect my family today. Shine the light of Christ upon them as the brightest spotlight. I ask this in the name above all names, My Lord and Savior.

The name of Jesus, Amen.
