Daily Prayer for April 8th, 2019      

Good morning, God—thank You! 🙂

My thoughts control my feelings, and my feelings control my actions. Holy Spirit, help me to direct my thinking on things from above, as I rejoice in You, with love, keeping my heart with all watchfulness; as from it flow the springs of life. Guard my mind in, Christ Jesus. Amen.

Proverbs 4:23 English Standard Version (ESV)

23 Keep your heart with all vigilance,
for from it flow the springs of life.

2 Timothy 1:7 English Standard Version (ESV)

for God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.

Philippians 4:4-9 English Standard Version (ESV)

Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice. Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand; do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me—practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.
