For Providing Daily Bread

Caring Father,
You watch over and provide the necessities of life for all of creation, including mankind, the crown of creation, in so many ways. By design you use parents to meet the needs of children as they are raised and grow up in the home. In many situations where parents aren’t or cannot be present, you provide grandparents to step in and carry out those responsibilities. You also work through many social services to care for children and adults alike in special circumstances or with special needs that require additional care and attention. For seniors, a demographic often overlooked and neglected by many in society, assisted living facilities offer the added services to supply what is needed in the later stages of life. Thank you for these many ways you lovingly provide daily bread for over eight billion people in the world. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

To Enlighten Us with Your Word

Heavenly Father,
Sundays are sacred. When you gather your people around your Word, there your Spirit touches hearts and changes lives. The Bible is a gold mine, filled with treasures and truths that cannot be discovered anywhere else. Enlighten worshippers this morning by leading them to a new awareness or understanding from your Word. Grant them the child-like awe of discovering something fresh and new, while also reassuring them with what is already known and familiar. Deepen their love for your Word and drive them to search it eagerly, not just on Sundays, but daily. Enrich and equip your church through your Word today, and strengthen her stand on it so that she might continue to weather every attack from the evil one. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

To Check In With Others

Lord God,
As guys, we tend to prioritize problem-solving and getting things done. When others share with us the challenges going on in their lives, we focus on fixing things and making them right. This can be a great blessing to others when they come to us looking for that kind of help.

What isn’t always natural for us is to think about others, take the initiative, and check in with them to see how they’re doing. We tend to keep to ourselves and give our attention to projects more than people. It isn’t that we don’t care about others; it just doesn’t occur to us to touch base with them regularly. 

Help me to be more mindful of that. I know there are people you’ve placed in my life who are going through new or challenging seasons in their own lives. Prompt me to call or text them more frequently, not necessarily to see what might need fixing, but simply to let them know they are cared for and supported. Regular check-ins like this can help combat the isolation and loneliness that others may be experiencing. And, the benefits go both ways, as you often use others to bless us unexpectedly through these meaningful interactions, too.

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
