Scripture Reading
John 16:24
Until now you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.
Reflection
Jesus urges us toward a boldness in prayer that many of us have never practiced. The risen Christ has opened a direct line of communication — asking in his name is not a magic formula but a prayer offered in alignment with his character and purposes. He wants your joy to be full, not partial. What prayer have you been afraid to pray, what need have you been too timid to bring? Bring it today with confidence.
Prayer for Today
My love, on this great day of yours, may the Lord give you all the things you need in life so that happiness will always call its home your heart. May you be protected every step you take on your journey to success and prosperity. Happy birthday!
Amen.
