Make these words your own

Amen we pray together this new day

Midday
Pray the Prayer for the Month as your own midday prayer

Dear Jesus, to each other we have given our gifts of love
When we celebrated your birth.
But the wise men brought gifts
Showing Your Kingship,
The bitterness of life,
And the embalming in death.
Help us to remember that You came Purposefully
To exchange Your Life for ours.
Amen

Evening

Reading : read the verses again from MATTHEW chapter 6 verses 5-15
Reflect on the words…. and then Pray in response to what you have read
This is our God, Father God

Sing hymns of praise to the LORD;
play music on the harp to our God.
He spreads clouds over the sky;
he provides rain for the earth
and makes grass grow on the hills.
He gives animals their food
and feeds the young ravens when they call.
His pleasure is not in strong horses,
nor his delight in brave soldiers;
but he takes pleasure in those who honour him,
in those who trust in his constant love

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

The Law.

Praise the LORD!
It is good to sing praise to our God;
it is pleasant and right to praise him.

He heals the broken-hearted
and bandages their wounds.
He has decided the number of the stars

Great and mighty is our Lord;
his wisdom cannot be measured.
He raises the humble,
but crushes the wicked to the ground.
