Hear my morning prayer
As I lay myself
And my enemies
Before you
In Jesus’ name.
Amen

And for the Church of Scotland Assembly week starting today
Father God, hear our prayers and bless them real good
Surprise them even this day we ask
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Reading : read these verses again from Psalm 60 at the end of your day
Reflect on these words as you look back over the day and then Pray in response
LORD God, our God, hear our prayers this evening
As we return our thanks to You
And trust you for tomorrow
In Jesus’ name. Amen.
