Prayers

Lord,

I am having a hard time being selfless. I cannot seem to think of others while things in my own life are raging. I am trying to be calm and peaceful, but not having much luck. Please help me. I need you.

I am trying to take this time to pray for others. Please be with all the children. The babies, the older ones and all in between. Love them, care for them. Be a guide in their lives. Give them that one person that makes a difference. I would pray they see You and hear You and know and follow You.

I pray for my friend P. May she hear You and be guided by You as she makes her way through life.

I pray for the ladies at M. I hope they are refreshed and learn about You. Some have not found a church to call home and I would pray they are led to find one. May each person find the voice to invite someone to share their Sunday.

I pray for my family. I pray that we could all communicate and get along. That we could be understanding and to help fill the needs of others.

I pray for me, my husband and kids. I desire us all to know You, though I am not sure how. We attend church in an effort to learn more, but we are not following through with more. I pray each night and hope You hear me. I ask for help and guidance as I clearly do not know what to do. My mind has been churning with thoughts and ideas, but I have done nothing to act on them. I am not sure where to turn so I have stayed still.

Lord, I pray all these things in Jesus Christ, Amen.
