Good Morning, God,
A prayer learned at a grandmother's breakfast table goes, "We thank Thee, O Lord, for Thy care of us through the night. Guide and direct us this day and keep us in Thy loving care always, Amen."
We have been praying this and similar prayers in the mornings at our breakfast tables of late, Lord. We pray each morning when the sun rises over our Dubois County and we have managed to get through another tornado without really major damage and especially, without loss of life.
Perhaps, Lord, since when we sleep we are not consciously aware of what is going on around us, we ought to pray a prayer before bedtime that says, "We thank you, O Lord, for guiding and directing us through this day. Now keep us in your loving care this night and always; in Jesus' name, Amen."
Lord, may we always see the morning light after safely making it through the dark of night.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
