“I am the vine, you are the branches.  If you live with me and I live in you, you will bear abundant fruit.”  (John 15:5)

Father, thank you for your abundant fruit,

Fill my life with your fruitfulness.

Forgive me for trying to create my own fruit,

Instead help me to simply produce your fruit.

I praise you for your fruitful life beyond imagination.

Amen.

“I praise you for I am expertly and wonderfully made.  All of your works of creation are wondrous.  And I know that full well.” (Psalm 139:14)

God, I praise you that you have made me perfectly as you designed.  And that you chose me from before my beginning.  Help me to remember that when I have self doubts.  And help me to live fully the life you created just for me.  I walk in that confidence that you are leading me perfectly everyday into the greatness you designed.  Amen

“Praise the Lord, my soul, and remember all of his blessings.” (Psalm 103:2)

Lord, thank you for all of your blessings.  Especially the important ones I overlook.  Fill my life with all you have promised.  And help me in the midst of challenges to focus on your promises rather than my problems.  For I know I will see your promised blessings.  And they will be more than enough.  Amen

“The Lord redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and grace.”  (Psalm 103:4)

Lord, thank you that no matter how deep the pit you have the grace and power to lift me out.  And then you crown me with your love.  When I’m wallowing help me to look up.  Then lift me out to the life of blessing you offer.  I choose not to live in the pit when I can live in the castle.  Amen
