So Jotham became mighty,

because he ordered his ways

before the LORD his God.

               2 Chronicles 27. 6

(When we order our ways

               before God,

when we listen, respond

       and follow Him,

God transforms

  the trajectory of our lives,

the journey,

and the fruit He bears

                through us

which sustains not just us,

but all those around us,

even those yet unborn.

Because we walk with God,

because the LORD

               is our strength,

life looks very different.

Even in this.)

O LORD,

We come before you

              this morning,

not to lay out our agenda

                  before You,

but for You

   to lay out Your day for us.

Help us to

    walk with You through it,

aware of Your Presence,

aware of Your grace,

aware that

    You are the Almighty.

Guide our steps,

transform our hearts,

and order our ways

      for Your glory.
