A Morning Prayer & Devotional
How you begin the morning quietly shapes the whole day. Before the phone, before the noise, before the first worry has a chance to set the tone — there is an open invitation to turn toward God first. David made it a practice: "In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly" (Psalm 5:3). And the One you turn to is never out of mercy: "his compassions never fail; they are new every morning" (Lamentations 3:22-23). This collection is built to start the day with Him — one verse, one short prayer, one small act to carry into the hours ahead. The pattern is simple and it is the heartbeat of this whole ministry: pray, then act. Begin here tomorrow. Direct your first words upward, ask Him to lead, and step into the day knowing the mercy you need is already waiting at the door.
