Prayers

Lord, Father,

Thank you for this day. It was cold and windy, but we were all together and doing the things we like. There is something about going to church each week to learn and worship. I feel like a different person. The kids were good and entertaining to boot.

I pray for many things tonight. First, please help my boy. He is in pain and having such a hard time. I ask that you help his tiny bottom heal. He has been a champ, but I know he is tiring of the situation. He is wearing down. Please help him. I also ask for strength for those of us caring for him. It is so hard to hear him so sad and in pain. Things have to be taken care of and we are doing the best we can, but I ask you to be with us and keep us strong for him.

I pray for kids that are cold. Whether they have no home, no coat or just no money to pay the bill I pray they can stay warm. Cold season has hit with a force and I pray You would take care of them. Give them a way. Coats donated, gas bills paid for them, something. It is in Your wisdom I trust. I pray they do not have to suffer this winter.

I pray for myself tonight. Help me change. Help me be the person I should be. The person living in Your image. Guide me through the difficult choices. Give me strength to stay on the right path. Lord, I ask to be different. I desire a different relationship with my family. I desire to do Your will. Help me, guide me.

Lord, You have a plan for our lives. I trust in that. I only ask you keep us on the path to do Your will. Help us do the things we are meant to do.

In Jesus Christ, Amen.
