God, today my thoughts are scattered like scraps of paper across a parking lot, like leaves blown down the street on a windy day in autumn.
Help me now to release those fragments. There will be other times for brain-storming. Let this be a time for brain-calming.
I breath in — and out — slowly.
And again.
I relax my shoulders.
I begin to gather my thoughts around Jesus Christ my Savior. There is no other thought or task more important than Him. No other person or appointment rivals my Lord.
You wait to meet with Me in this hour. You know me, love me, and now You have words to give to me. Through the written Word, the Spirit of God will refocus my priorities.
You will give guidance for the major tasks of this day. You will assure me that my acceptance is based on grace not works.
I am not responsible to save the world or any part of it. But can simply hear my Master’s voice and obey as a willing child.
I rest in You. You have charge of my life. You have control of my day.
I am eager to hear Your voice, and take Your hand now, and share what is on my heart.
