Incline My Heart

A thirty-day guide to morning prayer in the Anglican tradition, drawing from the 1662 Book of Common Prayer, the writings of the Church Fathers, and the spiritual wisdom of the saints.

Each day follows the ancient sevenfold pattern of the Daily Office: preparation of the heart, confession and absolution, adoration, Scripture and meditation, the Creed and prayers, self-examination and intention, and commendation and blessing.

Over thirty days the devotions move from the great I AM sayings of Christ through his titles and offices, through life in the Spirit and the communion of saints, to the practices of discipleship and the final vision of God. Each office takes approximately twenty to thirty minutes.

• Thirty complete daily offices following the sevenfold Daily Office pattern
• Prayers drawn from the 1662 BCP, adapted invocations from Andrewes, Anselm, Augustine, Bernard, Herbert, à Kempis, Taylor, and Wesley
• Scripture from the King James Version with meditation points for each passage
• The Apostles' Creed, Lord's Prayer, and a thematic Collect for each day
• Self-examination questions and intention prayers connecting theology to daily life
• Blessings and commendations sending the reader into the day

Written as a personal devotional project, drawing together the Anglican liturgical tradition and patristic sources into a structured thirty-day guide. The sevenfold Daily Office pattern follows the historic structure of morning prayer from the 1662 Book of Common Prayer, adapted for private use.

The thirty meditations were composed over an extended period of daily prayer practice, drawing on primary sources — the Fathers, the Reformers, the Caroline Divines — rather than secondary commentary.
