To Watch And Be Sober

 

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 paths of truth and allegiance to the faith that we have in our hearts and minds as we submit to Your Word in our acts and deeds to the best of our ability as we mix and mingle with Your Children in Your Creation among the temptations of the world, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.
