Glory to You

I've been reading through a book, 30 Days with Wesley: a prayer book. I got it as a gift from a dear friend. So, over the next months, I'll randomly share items from this book with you. It gives psalms and various passages to read each day as I spend time in prayer. I'm really enjoying it and so I thought you might enjoy bits of it too!

Psalm 29:1-4, 10-11

Ascribe to the LORD, O mighty ones, 
ascribe to the LORD glory and strength. 
Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name; 
worship the LORD in the splendor of his holiness.

The voice of the LORD is over the waters; 
the God of glory thunders, 
the LORD thunders over the mighty waters. 
The voice of the LORD is powerful; 
The voice of the LORD is majestic.

The LORD sits enthroned over the flood; 
the LORD is enthroned as King forever. 
The LORD gives strength to his people; 
the LORD blesses his people with peace.

With hearts filled with gratitude, let us bless and adore our almighty and everlasting Father, praying,

Praise to you, O God, the Giver of all good gifts. 

Blessed be your love for giving your Son to die for our sins, for the means of grace and for the hope of glory.

Praise to you, O God, the Giver of all good gifts.

Make us every day more zealous and diligent to use every opportunity to build up our souls in your faith, love and obedience.

Praise to you, O God, the Giver of all good gifts. 

Make yourself always present to our minds, and let your love fill and rule our souls in all those places, associations, and activities to which you call us this day.

Praise to you, O God, the Giver of all good gifts.

 **From 30 days with wesley**

I pray that this year we would rest in our Savior, the Giver of all good gifts, trusting Him to guide our steps according to His plan, that we might not strive against Him to get our own ways and that we would keep our eyes open to His gifts and that we might have hearts of thankfulness for who He is.
