Friends Hands

Thank you for allowing me to show how much I care

Please close your eyes and hold my hands so we can say a prayer

Remember God is always with you 24/7

He hears each prayer as He bends down from His home in Heaven

With a prayer, a hug, a note, a book, or just a simple smile

I pray today you find a way through your trouble and your trial

 

God Bless

Pray For Your Enemies

Pray For Your Enemies

Enemy(1)

Prayer is a means of interacting with God. Praying is a method of changing a situation for the better.
We pray for things that we want to change, our temptations, our ways of living (overeating, drinking, gossiping, anger.) But the biggest one is "Pray for your enemies". I have always been angry that I have been hurt by people. They have said things about me that were not true. They made fun of the way I dressed or the things I did. I would be angry at God and ask WHY?

 

"Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and PRAY for them which despitefully use you."

Matthew 5:44

I have come to the realization that if these people did not hurt me they would be friends and not enemies. The only way that I could live this commandment was to have these people in my life. Some were for a season, but all were for a reason. I have learned (though many times it is hard) to pray for everyone in my life including my enemies.

Prayer for July

Prayer For July

On CHRIST the Solid ROCK I stand. (1)

Dear God,

Thank YOU for taking my past and replacing it with a future. A future filled with love not hate, with gentleness, not abuse, with smiles, not tears. The tears I have now are of joy and pain, but this pain is not from abusive inflicted pain.

You have given me a new START line in this race. Thank you for never giving up on me and always believing in me and guiding me.

You, Lord, are my inspiration, my firm foundation, my solid rock.

"On Christ the Solid Rock I stand, all other ground is sinking sand"

From the bottom of my heart, Thank You.

 

"The Lord is my Rock, my Fortress, and my Savior" Psalm 18:2

? ? ?

Lord, how did you stay so calm, kind, and loving? How could you be so perfect in a crazy and imperfect world?

How could you forgive those who hurt you? How could you resist the devil when temptation was all around you?

Why did you choose imperfect people?
Jacob was a cheater
Peter had a bad temper
Paul was a murderer
Gideon was insecure
Miriam was a gossiper
Martha was a worrier
Thomas was a doubter
Sara was impatient
Elijah was moody
Abraham was old

I have been cheated, I have been around people with tempers and have almost killed me, I am insecure, I have been a gossiper, I am a worrier and a doubter, at times I am impatient and moody and now I am older.

I start out ok, but as the day goes on or even starts I find myself following the crowd, being critical of others and things happening around me. Why do I do that?

Why do bad things happen to good people? Why do children, and young people die? Why is there so much hatred?

Lord, please help me to make the right choices and replace the criticism with kindness. To change the chaos to calmness,  to change the negativity to goodness.

Help me to be all that you want me to be, kind, caring, forgiving, patient, grateful, humble.

Help me to have simplicity in my life. To be grateful for what I have. To use the gifts you have blessed me with. To show kindness to everyone I meet, and to Find Good In Everything, Everyday, In Everyone, In Every Situation.

Thank you, Lord,

Amen.

Out of Love

Out of Love

Out Of


Lord,

Please help me to do and say things out of love.
Don't let me do anything if I can't do it with love,
for silence is better than a hateful remark. 

Lord, help me to say things to uplift others.
Help me to say things that are pleasing to your ears.

Help me to do things not for what I will gain from
others or to be noticed but to do things because it is
the right thing to do and it is pleasing to your eyes.

Help me to help others with my time, talents, and finances.
My responsibility is to please you in all that I do and say.

God Bless

Psalm 130

Psalm 130

Psalm (2) (1)

Thank you, LORD, for listening and answering my prayers. My hope is in your Word. 

Thank you for not keeping a record of my sins.

When YOU forgive YOU forgive completely.

Help me to not keep a record of my past so I can move forward to the future that YOU have planned for me.

I know that YOU hold nothing against me.

Those sins happened, they will NEVER happen again. I must and will move on. 

I know that I can talk to YOU about everything because YOU already know what I am going to say.

I know that YOU are always near. No matter how far we drift away, no matter what we have done, YOU are always there.

Thank you, LORD, for always being there to protect us, guide us, and forgive us.

From the depths of despair, O Lord
I call for your help.
Hear my cry, O Lord.
Pay attention to my prayer.
Lord, if you kept a record of our sins,
who, O Lord, could ever survive?
But you offer forgiveness.
Psalm 130: 1-4

God Bless

Putting YOU first in my heart and my mind

These are the daily words that I pray
Please lead me, protect me and guide me today
