Well, one thing that Christ gave us that is daily is the prayer He said to us to pray which is for deep necessities we need as Christians. It's in Matthew chapter 6 (part of the amazing and wonderful Sermon on the Mount, chapters 5 through 7, which are extremely helpful and powerful to strengthen us and guide us as Christians.)Thank you so much! I am really open to know about ways to integrate faith into my daily life.

9“This, then, is how you should pray:
“ ‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
10 your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us today our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one. ’
...
He continued then: 14 For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins."
Matthew 6 NIV
The best way to read these 3 chapters (and all Christ said generally) is to really listen with all of your heart, and let the words soak in, and remember them.
Two practical ways to integrate a relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ daily are:
#1 have a running conversation with the Lord all day long--thanking Him for the beautiful creation if outside; asking Him for wisdom in determining what to do; thanking Him for His ceaseless lovingkindnesses & His unfailing mercies (compassions)(Lamentations 3:22,23 "The LORD'S lovingkindnesses indeed never cease, For His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness!) throughout the day!
#2 Memorize then meditate on Bible verses as you go through the day. A good one to start with is, of course: Lamentations 3:22,23. I did that many years ago & it is still a blessing to thank the Lord when I see an example of His lovingkindness or His compassions or His faithfulness when going through each day!
These verses my come from your daily devotional time (called a quiet time) where you spend some time to begin your day before work, etc., reading the Word & praying & dedicating yourself as the Lord's living sacrifice, servant & witness.
May the joy of the LORD be your strength! Doc
