Creation Prayer

 

Each morning is a fine new creation -

A fresh canvas on which to paint my day.

Help me look upward for inspiration.

Master Artist, guide my plans, I pray.

 

May I begin the work with grateful praise,

Apply my brush with fervent prayer,

My hand held by Your steady hand, Lord,

Warm colors spread with loving care.

 

Though  may paint no masterpiece,

The art that's wrought is Yours and mine.

I humbly ask, "Help me erase

My willful flaws in our design."

 

~ Louise Pugh Corder

 

O Lord,

in the morning

I will direct

my prayer

to Thee.

Ps. 5:3
