Resurrection and the life,

I awoke this morning to the sound of an annoying alarm. After hitting the snooze button a few times, I resign myself to the fact that I need to get up. I want to remain in the warmth and comfort of my bed. I can’t. This day is now upon me and it is time to enter it. Give me the strength so to rise. Remind me that this day comes as a gift from your loving hand. Relieve my tiredness and lethargy with renewed energy. Allow me to live and love to the fullness, following in the steps of Jesus.

Through Christ, Amen.
