     Gracious Heavenly Father, thank You for this blessed morning with Your mercy and goodness.
     Lord, we praise and thank You for the privilege given to us, Your children, to have community with You. 
     Lord, help us to richly dwell in Your Words. Open our heart to greater understanding of Your Word, so that we may grow in grace and in a knowledge of You. Lead and guide all our intercessions and prayers, our conversation, and communion with others. 
     Lord, help us not to miss any opportunity to learn of You or forget Your presence with us. May we help others to come to a deeper knowledge of our Saviour Jesus.
     Lord, let our hearts remain unshadowed, even when our lives seem difficult at times and when the future looks bleak and uncertain. Let Your presence go before us.
     In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
