Evening Prayer


It's Evening, Jesus
Did I take care of my body today?
Did I do you proud?
This temple you gave me for your own dwelling....
was it defiled by junk food,
was it abused in labor or rest?
was it honored for it's own unique gifts
of sight and sound and hearing and movement, balance and strength?
Thank you for my body, creator God
Thank you for it's health
I don't have cancer
I don't have arthritis
I don't have muscle spasms
I have strength and power
mobility and freedom
Grant me, Lord Jesus,
good sense, good grace to take care of this temple
Give me self control, time management, and discipline
to keep this vessel pure, clean and useful to you.

Amen
