"Give ear, O God, and hear; open your eyes and see the desolation of the city that bears your Name. We do not make requests of you because we are righteous, but because of your great mercy. O Lord, listen! Oh Lord, forgive! O Lord, hear and act! For your sake, O my God, do not delay because your city and your people bear your Name" (Daniel 9:18-19)
Gracious Father, we praise You for Your eagerness to answer prayer. You do so not because we are righteous, but because You are merciful. And in Your great mercy You hear, You see, You forgive and You act mightily. It is for Your own sake that You answer the prayers of Your people. Thank You, Father, for Your saving love and compassion.
Great to join the prayer, Wanda
