MORNING PRAYER Precious Father in Jesus name; Let me now go forth to the work of another day, still surrounded by your wonderful lovingkindnesses, still pledged to your loyal service, still standing in your strength and not my own. Let me to-day be a Christian not only in my words but also in my deeds: Let me follow bravely in the footsteps of my Master, wherever they may lead: Let me be hard and stern with myself: Let there be no self-pity or self-indulgence in my life to-day: Let my thinking be keen, my speech frank and open, and my action courageous and decisive. I would pray, O Lord, not only for myself but for all the household to which I belong, for all my friends and all my fellow workers, beseeching Thee to include them in all Thy fatherly regard. I pray also — for all who will to-day be faced by any great decision: for all who will today be engaged in settling affairs of moment in the lives of men and nations: for all who are moulding public opinion in our time: for all who write what other people read: for all who are holding aloft the lamp of truth in a world of ignorance and sin: for all whose hands are worn with too much toil, and for the unemployed whose hands today fall idle: for those who have not where to lay their head. O Christ my Lord, who for my sake and my brethren’s didst forgo all earthly comfort and fullness, forbid that I should ever again live unto myself. In Jesus Name Amen.
