Lord, I give thanks for Your greatness, your goodness, and your love, and I now draw near to enjoy your presence.

I know that You alone, whose name is the Lord, Are the Most High over all the earth. Psalm 83:18

Take a moment to consider God’s awesome majesty and thank Him that He loves you and wants an intimate relationship with you.

The word of God is living and active and sharper than any double-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit and of joints and marrow, and it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of Him to whom we must give account. Hebrews 4:12-13

O Lord, You are our Father. We are the clay; You are the potter; we are all the work of Your hand. Isaiah 64:6, 8

The one who loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him. But the one who hates his brother is in the darkness and walks in the darkness and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes. 1 John 2:10-11

Lord, I thank You for the living power of Your word and for the abundance of Your grace. I thank You for creating and loving me, and I ask that I would grow in love for others.
