Dear Lord, I forget sometimes that my efforts cannot earn Your love or grace or forgiveness. You have lavished grace on me as a gift and not a wage. I would like You to thank You for that wonderful gift. Stay close to me. Abide in me and make Your presence known in everything I see and do. Give me strength the whole day through. I pray to be filled with Your Holy Spirit for the rest of this day. Let me go forth, walking with your Spirit in my heart, that I may be filled with the joy and energy and praise for your entire creation, thankful in the many gifts you have given me, and showing forth your light in my every word and deed. This I pray in Christ’s name. Amen.🙏🙏🙏

✦ Story behind this post

Grandmother sat beneath the ancient banyan, whispering words Avvaiyar once spoke in Srivilliputhur's sacred halls. Her weathered hands held nothing but faith and memory. She'd earned little in coins, yet somehow PAYBO—peace, authenticity, yearning, belief, offering—overflowed her heart. Each morning, she prayed not for riches, but for her granddaughter's wisdom, her son's honest work, her community's strength. The temple bells echoed her devotion across generations. In that moment, she understood: true wealth isn't calculated. It's inherited through prayer, through stories passed down, through hands that give more than they receive. Heritage lives when we honor it together.
