"...and you are My witnesses,"

           declares the LORD,

"and I am God."

                Isaiah 43. 12

(That's why we are in this space,

this relationship,

this difficult situation,

even in what may appear

    as a mistake

    or wandering in the wilderness.

We are anointed and appointed

     to bring the name of Jesus

                   to this place

                   and to these people.

We are not just randomly here,

    but strategically positioned

to love others into His Kingdom,

to make Him known,

that many may realize

      that there is a God

      who does not just exist,

but calls them beloved.)

O LORD,

We walk into a day full of Your glory,

   Your sacred encounters

   and Your divine appointments.

May we be aware

        not just of opportunities

                        to speak of You,

        but of people desperate

        to know You.

We have witnessed Your love

              and grace in our lives.

Please empower us

     to speak of You today.
