“Those who make them will be like them, Yes, everyone who trusts in
them.  O house of Israel, bless the Lord;
O house of Aaron, bless the Lord;” (Psalm 135:18-19)

The Lord makes those who come to
Him like Him.  Come then and learn from
the Lord.  He tells you that at the end
of this age, you will be like Christ.  Bless
the Lord for all that He is doing.  Bless
the Lord for all He has done.  Bless the
Lord for the benefits you receive this day. 
He is gracious and merciful and His love endures forever.  Come then into His presence and receive His
goodness.

Lord, You know where I am and the obstacles that remain.  Guide me, O Lord, in the way of salvation
that I would learn and grow to be like Christ. 
Teach me Your ways, O Lord, that I may not resist where You are leading
me.  Guide me in Your goodness and mercy
to receive the grace You are giving me. 
May I learn to bless You in all circumstances and at all times.  Bless You, Lord.

Lord Jesus, You walked this earth
and know the things that get in my way. 
You know me better than I know myself. 
Guide me, O Lord, in Your goodness that I would walk with You in the
salvation You have prepared for me.  Lead
me this day and every day that I may learn the blessings You have in mind for
me and all those who trust in You.  Guide
me, Lord Jesus, into the way of life eternal. 
Amen.
