Strength for the day:
O.. Father, this day may bring some hard task to our life, or some hard
trial to our love.
We may grow weary, or sad, or hopeless in our lot.
But, Father, our whole life until now
has been one great proof of Thy
care. Bread has come for our body, thoughts to our mind,
love to our
heart, and all from Thee. May this day be full of a power that shall
bring us near
to Thee, and make us more like Thee; and O God, may we so
trust Thee this day that, when
the day is done, our trust shall be
former than ever. Then, when our last day comes, and
our work is done,
may we trust Thee in death and forever, in the spirit of Jesus Christ
our Lord.
Amen
