What are practical ways in which you can keep Jesus as the centerpiece of your daily life?
What are some hallmark “bricks” that have been laid in your life, recently or in the past, in

Write a prayer using the above verses as a reference.
I love the Lord because he hears my voice and my prayer for mercy. Because he bends down to listen, I will pray as long as I have breath. Psalm 116:1-2
Dear Lord,
Thank you for bending down to listen to each one of us. You care deeply. You know the sound of each of our cries and also what we need in the moment. Thank you for pouring out your grace and mercy. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
