Daily Prayer

In Your presence, O LORD is where I find true rest for my soul, perfect peace for my mind, and new hope for my spirit. I realize that communion with You is life. Holy Spirit, help me grow in Christ-like character by being a praying Christian and not just a Christian who prays when I face a crisis. Teach me to climb the mountain of God to pray constantly and spontaneously for my family, co-workers, friends and our nation. Remind me that when I pray, my world starts changing because I am relying on my heavenly Father. Grant me an opportunity this day to pray with someone who is facing a personal calamity. Allow them to experience the wonderful presence of God through prayer in the mighty name of Jesus.
