Try something different this morning and just pause now for 2 minutes of silence and stillness before God. Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him. – Psalm 37:7

Say these prayers from the Bible:

 Though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; though war break out against me, even then will I be confident. One thing I ask of the Lord, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple. For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling. (Psalm 27:3-5)

Lord help me this day to love you with all my heart and with all my soul, and with all my mind and with all my strength, for this is the first and greatest commandment, and then to love my neighbour as myself.  (Based on Matthew 22:37-39)

Grant me the Spirit of wisdom and revelation that I may know you better. May the eyes of my heart be enlightened in order that I may know the hope to which you have called me. May I glimpse, by the Holy Spirit, the riches of your glorious inheritance in the saints, and your incomparably great power for us who believe. May I experience that power today – the working of your mighty strength, which you exerted in Christ when you raised Him from the dead and seated Him at your right hand. (Based on Ephesians 1:17-20)

Conclude with 2 minutes silence.
