Morning Prayer --
We live in this prison of falsehood; manmade ideals of fleshly living that suffocate the eternal glory which has the ability to be found daily. God, baptize us with your truth to LIVE fully and abundantly in the callings to which we have been called. Eradicate previous thrones of self-centeredness and temporary mentality. Lift us to a place of graciousness and unconditional giving of self and resources. Grow our desire to know you, see you and love you, and set us free from the chains of laziness, apathy, and complacency. Create in us new hearts and new minds, creatively seeking new endeavors--never being stifled by mundanity or hopelessness. May our hearts be drawn so far out of society that the culture of our lives would be that of your Kingdom. Shed the scales from our eyes and give us faith that brings life to the dead by the power of Jesus' name and the presence of the Holy Spirit. Your goodness is true, and your ways simple. Reveal to us the hidden treasures of your heart and your mind for your glory and names' sake. All praise be to our God and Father and to his son, Jesus Christ, and to his Holy Spirit.
Amen.
