A prayer for each new morning by Tiffany Tabalt, read by Liam Arden.

Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love. For I have put my trust in you.

Show me the way I should go. For to you I entrust my life.

Psalm 143-8.

There are some mornings, such as today, when I wake while it's still dark outside.

I grab a cup of coffee and sit in a chair in front of an eastern-facing window.

Far up in the vast, black sky, I can see the planet Venus in several other surrounding constellations.

I am in awe, once again, of the intricacies of creation.

I marvel at the placement of each planet and star in the galaxy.

I'm humbled when I remember what it says in Psalm 147-4 about the stars.

He determines the number of stars and calls them each by name.

As I watch the sun slowly rise over the mountain and the stars begin to fade away from the light,

I pray for this new day. I pray for the opportunities that will cross my path today.

I pray for each family member that will be doing life with today.

I pray for those in my family who live far away.

I pray for our country and our leaders.

I pray for those I know who are hurting.

As I sit here in the early morning quiet, I'm reminded of several truths.

There's never been a morning, whether I see it or not, that the stars haven't always seemed to fade away.

There's never been a morning that the sun has not risen in the eastern sky.

Since the God of creation has never failed the earth in this.
