As the warmth of August surrounds us,
may we be reminded of the infinite love and mercy of our Savior.

***
With every sun’s rising, surprise us with Your love,
satisfy us with Your kindness.
Then we will sing with joy and celebrate every day we are alive.
Psalm 90:14 The Voice
***
Enter, Lord Christ — I have joy in Your coming.
You have given me life; and I welcome Your coming.
I turn now to face You, I lift up my eyes.
Be blessing my face, Lord; be blessing my eyes.
May all my eye looks on be blessed and be bright,
my neighbors, my loved ones be blessed in Your sight.
You have given me life and I welcome Your coming.
Be with me, Lord, I have joy, I have joy.
from the book, Celtic Daily Prayer
***
The whole earth is filled with awe at your wonders;
where morning dawns, where evening fades,
you call forth songs of joy.
Psalm 65:8 NIV
***
God’s love is the same forever
and the joy of the morning lasts all day
when the heart is glad with Him.
Marianne Farningham
