Heavenly Father, I thank you for the work you are doing in, around, and through us. Lord the compassion and mercy you show never fails. You are continually moving ahead of us preparing the way. We are comforted by the Spirit as we rest in you each hour. Father, our spirits are continually in prayer to you. Lord, I pray that your will would be done in your time. Give us your strength to walk this last leg of the journey. May your Power, Grace and Glory be ever-present with us and be visible to those looking on.

We are blessed by your abundant grace and overwhelmed by your Spirit as we live in resurrection today. Amen!
