For many of us the morning is the hardest part of the day. The alarm clock always seems to be pestering us and when we think about the day ahead, we don't like the prospects.
One important habit that brings hope to each day is the custom of praying a morning prayer or morning offering. It begins the day with a look to God for guidance and to place everything -- your thoughts, words, and deeds -- in the hands of God.
Countless saints had this custom and the Pope's Worldwide Prayer Network (formerly known as the Apostleship of Prayer) has been a strong proponent of this habit for the past century, connecting it to the Sacred Heart and offering everything for the pope's monthly intentions.
So, if you are struggling to start the day on the right foot, check out these prayers and print them out, putting them on your bathroom mirror so that you don't forget to give your day to God. For with God, all things are possible.
I will serve you, Lord!
Take, Lord, and receive all my liberty,
my memory, my understanding,
and my entire will,
All I have and call my own.
You have given all to me.
To you, Lord, I return it.
Everything is yours; do with it what you will.
Give me only your love and your grace,
that is enough for me.
