Thank You for Waking Me Up Again | A Morning Prayer for a Body That's Getting Older

You take stock before you open your eyes — the hip, the shoulder, the hand that has to be persuaded to grip. This morning prayer is for the believer who finishes that report before they've said one word to God. There is a difference between being kept alive and being woken on purpose, and most of us stopped being able to tell them apart somewhere along the way. This prayer sits with you in the minute before your feet touch the floor. It doesn't ask your body to be what it was. It hands you back the one thing you have that has not aged. 📖 Scriptures reflected in this prayer: – Isaiah 46:4 – Psalm 103:14 – Psalm 73:26 – 2 Corinthians 4:16 – Psalm 92:14 – Psalm 71:18 If this met you this morning, you're welcome to leave your declaration below: "I was not woken out of what was left over. I was woken on purpose." May you find your feet on the floor and know they were sent there.

New guided prayers go up daily if you'd like them waiting for you. And if someone you love has been getting quieter about how they're feeling in the mornings, this one might be worth passing along.
