Daily Prayer for January 3rd, 2020        

Good morning, God—thank You!! 🙂

I was restless until I found comfort in You. You give me rest for my soul, a peace that surpasses all understanding. You are gentle and lowly in heart. Your yoke is easy, and Your burden is light, as You guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus. May, everyone, finally fall into Your arms and rest. Thank You, Father!! In Jesus’ name. Amen.
