Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Father God

Reading : PSALM 24
Meditation : take time and consider this chapter this morning.

What words stay with you?

And then pray in response – as your day starts

Pray your own words as you look upwards!

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Father God…hear our prayers and bless each and all we ask.

Reading : read this passage again from PSALM 24
Reflect on the words and images at the end of your day
and Pray in response to God – with your words of request and trust

O LORD, King of all kings
Hear our evening prayers
As we return our thanks to you
For all your good gifts to us
For our trust and hope is in you
As we ask, seek and knock on heaven’s door
Thy Kingdom Come!
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
