Daily Prayer: You Are My Lord

Dear Lord,

I come to you today Father knowing that you alone are good and worthy of my affection. So often I know and speak these words but I look to other things for my worth and happiness. I look to the things I can see and feel and touch. But they are but a shadow of all the beauty and splendor that you are. They won’t last but your unchanging nature continues forever.

You are fully satisfying. The deeper I go in knowing you the more I am truly filled up. I pray today that I would rest in you alone as the source of my hope and security. As the first and most important focus of my affection.

In Jesus’ name amen

“I say to the Lord, ‘You are my Lord; apart from you I have no good thing.'” Psalm 16:2
