All Things In Moderation

 

Dear Lord please be with us this day and please may Your Holy Spirit be guiding and protecting us in every thing that we say and do. Thank You for all of the great gifts and the blessings and the protection that You give us and please forgive our sins the same as we forgive the mistakes of others.

Dear Lord please lead us into moderation of thought and deed as we mix and mingle with Your Children in Your Creation as we seek Your Kingdom among the temptations of this world please show us where to be cautious as we strive to become independent in our thinking and in our abilities to determine the direction for mankind to travel even as we seem to be controlled by our own vanity, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.
