Heavenly Father,
Above all things enlighten us with the eternal light that is our Lord Jesus Christ so that His mercy and knowledge may shine in us. Preserve the light of faith in our hearts, multiply it, and strengthen it.
Awaken you love in us, confirm our hope, and give us true humility so we may walk in the footsteps of Jesus.
Let a reverence for you be in all our deeds and before our eyes.
Drive all spiritual darkness and blindness from our hearts.
Protect us today and always from superstition and idolatry, from arrogance and blaspheming, from contempt of your Word, from disobedience and exasperation so that the sun will not set today on our anger.
Amen.
"Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He shall lift you up."
James 4:10

June, I love James 4: 10..."humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He shall lift you up!" I've not read B. Lewis; I've heard it's good reading. Blessings!
I have not ever read Beverly Lewis either but after hearing that beautiful prayer I just may have too. Thank you for sharing!
Beautiful prayer...and a great encouragement!!! Love and hugs from the ocean shores of California, Heather :)
