God is Holy! I Am (Not) Doomed - A Nighttime Prayer

“It’s all over! I am doomed, for I am a sinful man. I have filthy lips, and I live among a people with filthy lips. Yet I have seen the King, the Lord of Heaven’s Armies.”

– Isaiah 6:5 (NLT)

Please Pray:

God, today was a day like most days. Sometimes I noticed you; often I didn’t. Sometimes I recalled that you are holy; often I didn’t. Sometimes I remembered that you call me to holy living; most of the time I didn’t. I’m glad that you know I’m just flesh, prone to all kinds of failure, and I’m even more glad that you’ve promised I will become like you when, at long last, I see you face-to-face as you are, in all your glory. Until then strengthen and guide me to walk in ways that more nearly represent your glory and your holiness. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Carlene Hill Byron

Carlene started writing professionally when she was 20 years old and has finally agreed with God that she’s a writer, not just a “hack for hire.” She has worked as a journalist, a ghostwriter, a grant writer, the editor of New England Church Life and The New England Christian, a marketing project manager, and a fundraiser for nonprofit organizations. Her award-winning marketing communications describe traffic signal systems, roads, bridges, and water treatment plants. She’s written about Australian opals, Indian wedding wear, North American hockey memorabilia, and how to repair antique steam-powered farm equipment. She’s curious enough to explore almost anything, and grateful that wherever she goes, God is already there. She looks across woods and a marsh from her writing desk in small town Maine, just a few miles from her family’s third-generation wild blueberry farm.
