Holy One,
Priorities are easily set and difficult to honor because there are so many influences competing for our time, talents and resources. We want to spend time with families, but everyone has busy schedules, even our children and youth. We want to help in civic organizations, yet the pace of our work limits our involvement. We want to serve You, O Lord, yet often we even move You down the list. Please forgive our foolish ways, we pray. May we be bold and courageous, holding fast to our desire to serve You and others in Jesus’ name. AMEN.
