Prayer #00015
Good morning FATHER! Thank you for another BLESSED day … a day that is filled with joy and lots of new opportunities. Thank you for keeping us safe in our homes, and protecting us from all the dangers that lurked in the night. Dear LORD, for all of the people who woke up today having no hope, and no desire to live, please restore that for them. Give them a BLESSING so big that they will know that it came from you. HOPE is the one thing that we all have, and the one thing that keeps up fighting to live another day; and that pushes us to move pass our misery and unhappiness and rise to be great again. Touch their minds today LORD, and give them a new start; a new direction and a new path. And for the families that woke up today grieving the loss of a loved one, feel them with your HOLY SPIRIT so that they can live again; and believe once again in your POWER. LORD I pray for all the sick-and-shut-ins around the world; all the homeless that have nowhere to turn; all the veterans suffering from their wounds; all the hungry, undernourished children, who only wish they had a single meal to eat; and all the people that would give anything to receive a decent education. These are just some of the problems that so many have to deal with on a daily basis, and I PRAY that these situations would change. LORD, keep me HUMBLE, APPRECIATIVE and GRATEFUL for the BLESSINGS that I receive each new morning. Help me to never forget how fortunate I am to have the life that I have, even when I complain, even when I worry, and even when I fail to remember those that are less fortunate. Help me to never lose the GIFTS of caring; empathy; consideration; and compassion for others that you gave me; and help me to one day be able to do so much more than just PRAY for them – but to one day be able to change it for them one situation at a time. Thank you for this day, and all that is contained within, and LORD, I’ll be careful to give you the HONOR, GLORY, and the PRAISE. In JESUS’ precious name I pray, Amen.
