Prayer for the Day - April 2015

[MajestyJo]

Let’s remind ourselves in silence that we
are in God’s presence…

(pause…)

The word “prophet” means “God’s
spokesman”. It’s not anything to do with
trying to discover what’s going to happen
in the future.

We read of the prophets (God’s spokesmen)
in the Old Testament. One of the
prophets was called Micah. He spoke
very simply about three qualities that are
needed to live a good life:

“To act justly,
to love tenderly,
and to walk humbly with God
(Micah 68)

We make that our prayer today:
That we may act justly,
love tenderly,
and walk humbly with you, our God.

They are easy words to remember, and
they are the kind of words that some
people learn and repeat a few times during
the day, reminding themselves that
God is with them.
