God With Us
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for providing Jesus. Holy God coming in the form of man, providing what we need to spend eternity with You. I am in awe of the miracle of a virgin birth so that God could be with us. Your love is beyond comprehension. Please help us to have the appropriate awe and thankfulness for this wonderful gift.
I pray this in Jesus’ name.

Good Blessings
A Lowly Place
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for using the lowly for Your honor and glory. We are prone to want what we consider glorious, but You often use what is humble. Please help us to be humble servants. Remembering to give You the glory and praise for Your use of the insignificant.
I pray this in Jesus’ name.
God is so good.
Awestruck
Jesus Came
Dear Heavenly Father, I am in awe that You would send Your one and only Son to come to earth. He was born as a baby in such humble circumstances – a manger. Thank You for showing such awe inspiring love and giving us a reminder at Christmas each year. We praise Your name!
I pray this in Jesus’ name.
God is so good.

Holy is Your Name
As I have studied Jesus’ example prayer, I have looked for Bible verses that help me pray each portion. Jesus started with “Holy is Your name”. This is an indicator of respect and praise. God is worthy of praise. There is much evidence for God’s worthiness if we pay attention.
Dear Heavenly Father, I want to speak the awe and praise that You deserve. You have done so many wonderful things. Creation is a boast of great beauty and creativity. Sunsets are still one of my favorite parts of creation. You have always followed through on what You promise to do.
Thank You!
I pray this in Jesus name.
God is so good.
