A Monday Morning Rest/Reset Prayer


Sometimes a new week can feel a bit daunting,
when we try to shoulder it's to-do dues all at once!
The beginning of today's devotion offered a restful reset-reminder!
Whatever our role is today, as we owe no one anything but love,
may we find the rest that comes from relinquishing anxiety 



Ps.51:10
Create in me a clean heart, 
O God; and renew a right spirit within me.

Rom.13:8
Owe no one anything except to love one another, 
for he who loves another has fulfilled the law.

Create in me a clean heart, Lord
And let my spirit prove
Thy dwelling place; through deed and word
To owe nothing but love

Then, may love’s divine debt compel
More humble praise unfurled
That Thou shouldst kindle in my shell
The Light that lights the world

So that my fellowman may see
You in me, and be blessed
To bring all glory unto Thee
And there find perfect rest

Create in me a clean heart, Lord
My flawed spirit, renew
Then, by Thy righteousness restored
Lord, let me shine for You

Janet Martin
