Start with a classic prayer inspired by scripture:

We lift up our souls to you, O Lord. Help us to direct our full attention to you with undistracted devotion. Keep our hearts from being far from you as we draw near to you with our mouths and honor you with our lips. With humble boldness we enter the most holy of all places through the blood of Jesus, by the new and loving way which he has consecrated for us through the veil, which is his torn flesh.  Psalms 25:1; 1 Corinthians 7:35; Matthew 15:8; Hebrews 10:19-20


WEEKLY MEDITATION VERSE:  This verse is meant to be read every day - and will change weekly. Slow down, ask God to speak to you.

‭
Now, Take a deep breath. Read it again, slowly.
Luke 1:51-52 ESV - He has shown strength with his arm; he has scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts; he has brought down the mighty from their thrones and exalted those of humble estate.
