Daily Prayer for June 1st, 2019          

Good morning, merciful Father—thank You!

I hunger for You. Let me fall so deeply in love with You that nothing else seems to matter. Help me to decipher Your voice and know which way to turn, causing everything around me to fade as I cling to Your gentle touch. Thank You for Your son, Jesus, who calls me His friend. How comforting!! 🙂 Amen.

John 15:15 English Standard Version (ESV)

James 2:23 English Standard Version (ESV)

23 and the Scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness”—and he was called a friend of God.

Proverbs 27:9 English Standard Version (ESV)

Oil and perfume make the heart glad,
and the sweetness of a friend comes from his earnest counsel.

Proverbs 27:6 English Standard Version (ESV)

Faithful are the wounds of a friend;
profuse are the kisses of an enemy.
