Take a moment

(Today’s thought was written by John Birch www.faith and worship.com)

Spend a moment or two to reflect on God’s impact on your life. The things you say and do today will have an impact on all those you meet, it’s unavoidable! How is that fact going to influence how you approach this day?

You have called us
to be your people,
to follow where you lead,
be obedient to your word
and bring your Good News
wherever we might go.
Forgive the impatience
and lack of faith
which causes us to stumble;
when we prefer our way
to yours.
Draw us back into your arms,
as prodigals to their Father
and grant us patience
and perseverance
in our journeying with you.
