Posted in Prayer

This prayer was forwarded to me from my friend Kristine, whom has been a dear friend of mine for over 15 years.  We went to the same church in TX, were married around the same time, had our babies around the same time, bought our first houses  . . . etc.  We've been through many of life's changes together, and one thing is for sure . . . our foundation in Christ and friendship has been strong.  Thank you for this awesome prayer, and I just had to share it in return  You are a blessing dear sis :-)

Dear Lord, I thank you for this day. I
thank You for my being able to see and to hear this
morning. I'm blessed because You are a forgiving God
and an understanding God. You have done so much for me
and You keep on blessing me. Forgive me this day for
everything I have done, said or thought that was not
pleasing to you. I ask now for Your forgiveness.

             Please keep me safe from all danger and
harm. Help me to start this day with a new attitude
and plenty of gratitude. Let me make the best of each
and every day to clear my mind so that I can hear from
You.

             Let me not whine and whimper over things
I have no control over. Let me continue to see sin
through God's eyes and acknowledge it as evil. And
when I sin, let me repent, and confess with my mouth
my wrongdoing, and receive the forgiveness of God.

             And when this world closes in on me, let
me remember Jesus' example -- to slip away and find a
quiet place to pray. It's the best response when I'm
pushed beyond my limits. I know that when I can't
pray, You listen to my heart. Continue to use me to do
Your will.

             Continue to bless me that I may be a
blessing to others. Keep me strong that I may help the
weak. Keep me uplifted that I may have words of
encouragement for others. I pray for those who are
lost and can't find their way. I pray for those who
are misjudged and misunderstood. I pray for those who
don't know You intimately.  I pray for those who don't
believe. But I thank you that I believe.

             I believe that God changes people and
God changes things. I pray for all my sisters and
brothers. For each and every family member in their
households, and friends. I pray for peace, love, and joy in their
homes, that they are out of debt and all their needs
are met.

             I pray that every eye that reads this
knows there is no problem, circumstance, or situation
greater than God. Every battle is in Your hands for
You to fight I pray that these words be received into
the hearts of every eye that sees them and every mouth
that confesses them willingly..

             This is my prayer.
             In Jesus' Mighty Name, Amen. 

Feel free to pass it on . . . .  :-)
