My Prayer ........ July 3, 2007

Good Morning Precious Heavenly Father,

I come to You this morning in such a good mood because of a few reasons. First of all, today is the day before the 4th of July and my husband has the day off. He seems much more rested than he did this time last week. We've already had a good time this morning just sharing breakfast that he picked up for us. Secondly, because of the holiday my father has the week off from work. I am overjoyed because my father works a lot and he needs this time to relax and enjoy himself. So it just blesses me to think that a lot of the folks I love (hubby, dad, mom, bro) are having some time today/this week to enjoy themselves and to take a little bit of down time. Thirdly, I am in a good mood because I awoke to the sounds of the precious birds singing their praises unto You. How beautiful is that sound! I like waking up without being in a hurry so that I can enjoy this. So first and foremost, THANK YOU for this wonderful morning You have blessed me with once again. Thank You for my Salvation, my faith, family, friends, my job!, the air that is caressing my nostrils as we speak, and the many blessings that You bless me with over and over again!

I also ask for forgiveness of all the sins that I have been a part of whether it be the sin of doing something I shouldn't, or not doing something that I should. I am still a failure who is striving to do better with Your guidance and it boils down to me being a sinner SAVED by GRACE!

Please, watch over my precious family. Lord, satan attacked me so greatly yesterday. Thoughts of horrible things kept flooding my mind in regards to my family's safety. He knows where I am weak and he plays on that. Please Jesus, just be with them and keep a hedge of protection around about them. I love my family more than anything in this world. Touch my precious mother and heal her arthritic bones, keep her heart working correctly, help her diabetic condition, and just cover her body with Your power. Touch my precious father and heal his gout, stresses, tiredness, and his dealings with others who are not so nice sometimes. Use Your Holy Power to address his needs. Touch my baby brother and keep him safe in the years to come. Help him with his kidney disease, with learning to drive, picking a college, career, and eventually a mate. Touch my sweet husband and help him to succeed in all that he is working so hard at succeeding at. Heal his body of any infirmities that may be plaguing it, keep him safe from the sun's harmful rays on his fair skin. Touch my precious cousins and my in laws and keep them safe from harm and destruction. Save those in my family that do not know You and Your Saving Grace. Prick their hearts even at this moment with a desire to get to know You. I Pray that You continue to keep a hedge around my precious family and keep them safe from all the things that could harm them.

I Pray for all the lost and for the sinner closest to hell. Lord, please let them realize the error of their ways and turn before its to late. Please, open the eyes of those who are leading people down the wrong paths even now. Help them realize what they are allowing satan to do through them.

I Pray for the Creation Museum and its message of the Holy Word. I Pray for all those that enter its doors. Please just touch my husband, sis and bro in law and I as we enter and view this Truth!

Be with all those who are hurting this morning. Be with all the families who are missing folks that they love so dearly. Please just comfort the bereaved and provide peace for them. Bless my church and my co workers. Bless Michael's work and coworkers. Bless my pastor and his family. Be with all those who have a need today.

I love You Father and I thank You for taking the time to listen to my Prayers,
In Jesus' Name,
Amen.
