Good morning,
Beautiful soul.
Welcome to another day to live in abundance and grace.
As we begin our time together,
Find a comfortable position,
Whether lying in bed or seated upright.
Soften the body.
Allow any tension to release and bring your awareness back to your breath,
To the rise and fall of each inhale and exhale.
Feel the breath move through the body and on each exhale,
Relax a little bit deeper.
Notice the body continuing to become heavy,
The muscles letting go of any last remnants of resistance.
The breath lifts the body and it feels light and buoyant.
As the body stills,
The mind becomes more calm,
Focusing only on the present moment,
Only on the inhale and exhale.
In this moment,
Focusing on the holiness of God,
Focusing on his promises and unending love.
Breathe.
For I know the plans I have for you,
Declares the Lord,
Plans to prosper you and not harm you,
Plans for a hope and a future.
Jeremiah 29,
11,
Allow the body to inhale more deeply,
Expanding and finding more spaciousness.
Allow the corners of the mouth to lift and acknowledgement of the goodness of our heavenly God,
The acknowledgement that our creator has a plan for each of us in our obedience to him,
We are blessed in our faithfulness to him,
We are given hope and a future.
The Lord of all things has a plan and we are made for so much more.
Look at the birds of the air,
They neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns and yet your heavenly father feeds them.
Are you not of more value than they?
Matthew 6,
26.
God provides.
God provides so generously.
He opens doors for us to walk through.
He provides opportunities for us to grow and it is all part of his master plan.
As we walk side by side,
Hand in hand,
We must trust him as he will direct our path.
Heavenly father,
Open our hearts to feel your presence.
Allow us to hear your voice and feel your gentle hands guide us.
Let us be led along your way and not our own knowing that your way is true.
Let us release any anxieties or stress we may be holding in regards to our future as you have a plan to prosper us and not harm us.
Though our way may not always be easy,
May I trust your will and your timing.
Let me trust solely in you,
Lord.
May I lean not on my own understandings,
My own inclinations,
Or my own self-centered ways.
Let me trust you and the path you laid before me.
Let me thank you,
Lord,
For all of your goodness and mercies,
Your love endures forever.
As I begin my day,
Let me take into the world a steadfast faith in you,
An open mind to what lies ahead,
And an open heart to encounter the world in your name.
May I step forward in the knowing of my hope and future.
In Jesus' name,
Amen.
May your day be filled with peace and blessings.
