A Daily Prayer

Father, You lead us through the valleys and mountain top experiences of everyday life.  Your ways are far superior to the path we might choose when guided by our own limited wisdom.  We’re so grateful for the strength and encouragement we receive from our brothers and sisters who bear our burdens and share in our joys.  When considering the choice of walking faithfully with you or turning to our old way of life, we join with Simon Peter who weighed the options and declared, “Lord, to whom shall we go?  You have the words of eternal life.  We believe and know that You are the Holy One of God.” (John 6:68,69).
