‘Lord, I see that Your life was so perfect while You lived in the body of this flesh. You did not disdain the flesh, and yet You compelled it to do Your will and the will of Your Father. And behold, the body responded. It did not overpower You, but You overpowered it and made it Your slave to fulfill Your mission. Everything You did was sacred because You transformed the entirety of Your living into a holy pilgrimage. This is what I desire for my life. I desire that every aspect of my day and thought, every action and activity will carry the full fragrance and presence of the Most High. Could we make something as mundane as putting on shoes a holy experience? Yes. Lord, may every breath I take and every step I make, be a spiritual activity.
May the powers of the flesh and the old life never succeed to hijack my day by creating a false dichotomy, making some parts of the day irreverent and others holy. May my whole life be a sacred journey full of sacred events, full of Your Presence.; and Lord, may You warn me and deliver me from the slippery slopes of carving out some sections of my life as being for ‘me,’ and therefore not counting in the sacred journey. Help me Lord, in Jesus name.’
