Each of us comes to this Earth with a purpose, a plan. Most of our plan involves some type of learning. When we begin our day with the intention and request to be shown that plan, we can be more aware of what we came here to do. We are here on a journey - a journey of self-awakening, a journey of awareness, a journey of forgiveness. To be aware of our journey for just today isn't quite as daunting a task as becoming aware of the entire journey. Within our journey are our daily tasks that enable us to get to our destination. It is these daily tasks when added all together that form the journey. By taking each day as it comes, doing what is before us, what we are shown to do, we will get to our destination. We will stay on our Path and not get lost.

A lot of the time, the purpose with which we came here seems to include struggle. We come here to learn and inherent in the learning process is difficulty. By focusing just on today we can make this learning process more manageable and less difficult. I can do anything for a day! Ask me to do it for a week or a month or longer and that is a different story. But for a day I can do almost anything. So today we ask the God of our understanding, that Supreme Force that walks with us, to guide us, to show us our Path. And to give us the strength and courage to continue to walk this Path - just for today.

Dear Mother/Father God,
Just for today, please show me my Path
And grant me the courage to follow it.
