BEGINNING THE DAY
; (Supplied by the Council of Christian Congregations) Text. —"With my soul have I desired Thee in the night;' yea, with my spirit 1 within me will I seek Thee early; for when Tliv judgments are in the earth the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness." Prayer.—Give me, O God, this day a strong and vivid sense that Thou art ; bv mv side. In multitude and solitude, > in business and leisure, in downsitting 1 and uprising, may I ever be aware of 3 Thine accompanying presence. By Thy 1 grace, O God. I will go nowhere this 1 day where Thou canst not come, nor 3 court any companionship that would 5 rob me of Thine. By Thy grace 1 will 3 let no thought enter my heart that 5 might hinder my communion with 1 Thee, nor let any word come from my J mouth that is not meant for Thine ear. 1 So shall my courage be firm and my : heart at peace. Through Jesus Christ. ' Amen.
