Father✝️ in Heaven,

As I pray today
in the name of Jesus Christ✝️
👍🏾our⚖️ Only ✝️ Way
may You✝️ continue
to teach 👍🏾us⚖️
what it means
to submit ourselves
to You✝️.

Teach to 👍🏾our⚖️ hearts.
What makes for good ground
So when the mouth speaks
The truth of Your✝️ Word
Shows that abundance
of goodness and righteousness
As 👍🏾we⚖️ sing
with melody of heart

A psalm that teach 👍🏾our⚖️ families
of Your✝️ heritage to 👍🏾us⚖️,
Jesus Christ✝️ 👍🏾our⚖️ hope,
and ✝️Love as an enjoyment of a lifestyle
and something worth while
that commands 👍🏾our⚖️ attention
yet eases tension
to comfort this same heart
read of, preached about to us,
and melodically received
as a reminder of something kinder
to latch on to in the tough times.

For children, nursery rhymes
of hymnals to the Savior
🎶Jesus✝️ Loves me this I know🎶
🎶For the Bible tells me so🎶
and as they grow they come to know
Jesus✝️ as a wonderful child,
that’s Holy, meek, and mild
sharing life, and hope
To friends who share with 👍🏾us⚖️
The song of angels
Singing of His✝️ glory
Then suddenly Christmas
comes to mean more to the teen
or the young adult
learning of Titus 2 light
and Matthew’s Salt
concerning one another.

So Lord, as 👍🏾we⚖️ continue
Learning of our worlds.
May everything we learn…
keep 👍🏾us⚖️ pressing
toward Jesus Christ
without impressing,
yet addressing
what it takes for us
to Heal,
Repair,
Rebuild,
Renew,
and Return 👍🏾us⚖️
to a sense of “trust”
between
“each and every one of us”.
✝️☮️✝️

(to be continued)
in Jesus Christ✝️ name
as I pray and give thanks.

Amen.
