As we consider being “fearfully and wonderfully made” in Your image God, we think of what makes us special. Our five physical senses which enable us to experience joy, pleasure, and wonderment, at your creation Also, we, like you, have knowledge, understanding and wisdom.

We receive your love to dispense your love, may we continue to do so in Jesus name. Amen

O hear my evening prayer
Be near me
Help me
Purify me afresh
In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Lord, hear my prayer!
