Daily Prayer
Almighty God, Your will be done. It always is. You willed the world into existence, and it is good. We sinned, and you responded with salvation. And it is good. To Your glory, we discover the highest love, love for those who do not return it. Love for me.
God, you cause all things to work for good. Even Your anger is righteous. I pray all things according to Your will, because in all things, God, I know Your will is good.
Amen
