O God of my past, my present and my future, your hand stretches over the entire course of my life, sometimes very visible and other times not. From the time of my conception you had a plan for my life and you challenge me each day to open myself to allow that plan to work. Help me today O God to surrender myself to that plan, to that Word which you have planted deep within me. May your word and your work be fulfilled in me today. Let what you have said be done in and through me, according to your Word.
