WISE STEWARDS: LENTEN PRAYERS 2017

Day 6 – Tuesday
Psalm 119:37

     Maker of light and Giver of sight, turn our eyes toward You. Give us insight through your instruction and commands. Enable us to trust You. Enable us to obey You with gladness.
     Turn our eyes away from the many things that capture our imagination, and upon which we set our hearts, even though they are of no enduring value. Break our habit of constantly accumulating things for which we quickly lose interest. Alter our urge to obtain the latest gadgets even though we know they will soon be obsolete. Do not let us be characterized by frivolous choices.
     Help us to discern what we truly need and to learn contentment with the sufficiency of your provision. We rejoice in your abundant gifts!
     Help us to see what has enduring value and to fill our lives with those things. Enable us to place priority on our relationships with You and with the people whom You have placed around us. 
     Revive and energize our spirits for thoughtful, enduring faithfulness. Amen.
