Lord, I give you this day. It is a gift from your hand, and I am grateful for it and whatever it may hold for me. I give today back to you, for I want it all to be for your glory.

I give you the moments, minutes, hours that are before me – enable me to use them well, redeem the time, and not squander what you have entrusted to me.

I give you my thoughts, my attitudes, the intents of my heart – purify and redeem them. I long for them to be pleasing to You.

I give you my words and the tone of my voice – they have the power to give life or death. May they be full of Your Truth and Your love.

I give you my home and the things You have entrusted to my care – help me to rule and bring order to this physical domain for Your glory, not mine.

I give you my marriage – may I be a woman after your heart. May I be a virtuous wife who brings my husband good. Teach me anew to love, to honor, to submit out of reverence for You.

Lord, I give you my precious children. Cause me to be gentle and tender, to guard my mouth and reactions, to teach them the Truth and train them to do what is right.

I give you the interactions with others that will come today – phone calls, store clerks, emails, social media… may my words, tone, presence speak loudly of your love and grace.

Show me Your ways. Teach me Your paths. Guide me in Your Truth and teach me, for You are God my Savior – my hope is in You all day long.
