Prayer Devotional for the Day
Dear heavenly Father, I am so thankful to know the truth of Your Word. It has not only brought me light, but Your love as well. Thank You for loving me and forgiving me and giving me the precious Holy Spirit. Lord, may I always share this marvelous light through allowing You to live in me, and through me. May others desire to know You, through my witness. Lord, forgive me when I fail You and am not a good representative of Your nature. Fill me daily with Your Holy Spirit and guide me in the way that will bring glory to You. I ask this in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
