Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, good morning. I love You and thank You for this new day to live and breathe in this awesome day. Father God, I pray for relationships, marriages, unity, restoration, all forms of healing that is needed in Jesus Precious Name. A concept of self is made by You. It bears no likeness to yourself at all. It is and idol, made to take the place of your reality as Child of God. The concept of the self the world would teach is not the thing it appears to be. For it is made to serve two purposes, but one of which the mind can recognize. The first presents the face of innocence, the aspect acted on. It is this face that smiles and charms and even seems to love. It searches for companions and it looks, at times with pity, on the suffering, and sometimes offers comfort. It believes that it is good within an evil world. This aspect can grow angry, for the world is wicked and unable to provide the love and sheltered innocence  deserves. So this face is often wet with tears at the injustices the world accords consistent to those who would be generous and good. This aspect never makes the first attack. But everyday a hundred little things make small assaults upon its innocence, provoking it to irritation, and at last to open insult and abuse. Father God, let mine be a life of sacrificial love and forgiveness. I thank You, praise and give You all the honor and glory Lord Jesus. Amen

But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee. For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

Psalm 5:11-12
