Tuesday - Daily Prayers

Take a moment to listen to the still small voice of God within the bustle of the day which has begun. Find a quiet place where you can enjoy precious moments of peace in God's presence. Sit quietly and listen to the sounds of the world around you, both outside and in the place where you are. Breathe slowly and rest in God's presence......

Into your presence I come, Lord
a few moments of quietness
closeness
in a busy world
that demands my attention
Breathe on me now
that I might know your power
to see this day though

Spend a moment or two to reflect on God’s impact on your life. The things you say and do today will have an impact on all those you meet, it's unavoidable! How is that fact going to influence how you approach this day?

Because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of His Son into our hearts,
the Spirit who calls out, 'Abba, Father.' (Gal 4:6)

Choose a meditation

Look upon us, O Lord,
and let all the darkness of our souls
vanish before the beams of thy brightness.
Fill us with holy love,
and open to us the treasures of thy wisdom.
All our desire is known unto thee,
therefore perfect what thou hast begun,
and what thy Spirit has awakened us to ask in prayer.
We seek thy face,
turn thy face unto us and show us thy glory.
Then shall our longing be satisfied,
and our peace shall be perfect.

(Augustine, 354 - 430)
