Upon Waking up from my humble bed in this morning, I made the precious sign of the cross and invoked the Most Holy Trinity. How gracious is the Lord that He in his kindness still allow me to have another day here in the earth. I gave thanks the Lord for His benevolence and mercy second after second in my life, even in my unworthiness. This is the day that the Lord has made and Lord, in Your mercy, fill my heart and mouth with Thy praise. Lead me in every way to do and think of what is pleasing unto You... You know how weak and distracted I am, Lord may You surround Your unworthy servant with wall of Your grace.
Joy, peace You have granted
and You fill my heart and mouth with praise
Your faithfulness and kindness endure forever, O Lord
They never fail
With Your mighty arms You hold me
and I am safe in the midst of the storms
as unreliable and lame as I am
You never leave me even in a glance
Your love endures forever
Teach us O Lord
to see how may days we have
and we will be no more
that our heart be filled with Your remembrance
and seek the sweetest of all: Your kingdom and Your righteousness
that upon leaving this mortal tent
we cling unto Your light and glory
You heal us with Your patience and mercy
You speak to us in Magnificence
You sustains us with Your own blood and body
In the days of danger, Your heavenly servants surround us
in the days of misery Your Most Pure Mother delivers us
and Your beloved ones weep for us
How great is your Love
In the days when You allow us to be hungry and thirsty
let us be reminded to hunger and thirst Your righteousness
In every day, fill our heart with Love
In Your Love, may we find peace and courage
to love others as You have loved us
sweeping away all the arrogance
to greet everyone who may meet us in patience and understanding
In the day I fall,
Lord, may Your mercy be upon me
and may You help me to pass through the door of repentance
Lord, in You I hide
Your love is my refuge
And generation after generation shall proclaim:
“Taste and see that the Lord is good.” Amen.
Your attitude is so much better than mine. I have known others who got out of bed as you do, but have never known that myself (to my condemnation).
