A prayer to start the day

Dear God,
I pray for the day ahead and ask you to guide each step.
In each decision I make, grant peace to commit and rely.
In each difficult situation I may face, give wisdom.
In each moment of planning and preparation, lead me to plan things that will attract youth and young adults to You.
In each interaction I have with anyone, may I speak only words that make souls stronger.
Guard my heart and guide my time today.
Keep Satan bound, unable to attack or distract me.
Root my heart and fix my eyes on You alone so that all I think, say, or do may bring You glory and make You known in this world.
In Jesus’s powerful name,
Amen!
