-by Tim Bias

This morning I awoke with a song on my mind: Give me Jesus.

In the morning, when I rise, In the morning, when I rise, In the morning, when I rise Give me Jesus.

Give me Jesus, Give me Jesus. You can have all this world, Just give me Jesus.

When I am alone, When I am alone, When I am alone, Give me Jesus. Give me Jesus.

Give me Jesus, Give me Jesus. You can have all this world, Just give me Jesus.

When I come to die, When I come to die, When I come to die, Give me Jesus.

Give me Jesus. Give me Jesus, Give me Jesus. You can have all this world, Just give me Jesus.

Give me Jesus. Give me Jesus, Give me Jesus.

You can have all this world, Just give me Jesus.

–Jeremy Camp

Prayer for the Day

O God, this and every day, give me self-giving love and presence of Jesus. Embrace me and the people with whom I work and associate today.  Give us ears to hear what you are saying, hearts and  minds to discern and understand what you are doing.  By your grace, grant us the obedience to be quick to listen and slow to speak; the patience and humility to set our lives on your time; and the wisdom to respond appropriately.  Give us the heart, mind, and work of Christ. So as we are emptied in humble obedience we can be filled with the presence, peace, and power of your Son, so we can give ourselves to others and to the community as you have given yourself to us and to all the world. Amen.
