Dear Heavenly Father,
Right now, we just want to thank You so much for sparing the life of our friend Drew. We thank You for bringing him through the pulmonary embolism he had last February and this latest scare as well. We also thank You that he's getting the medical attention he needs. We ask that You help the doctors to work with him to find the best course of action from here, and the best treatment going forward. We know that You are in control of everything, even in this situation, Lord Jesus. We ask that You would make Your Presence and Your peace to be felt by Drew and his family as they deal with this.
Thank You, Jesus. We love You!
Amen

Dear Jesus,
Thank You for this morning. Thank You for bringing us though all the trials that have faced us this week. Thank You for the meeting we had at the church last night, and people with a passion for science that is strong enough to compel them to find the truth on such topics as evolution vs creation. We ask that You would prepare the way for these education programs to be carried out. Prepare the hearts of people of all ages to attend, participate, and learn Your truths. We want to equip believers to share and even defend their faith and to reach out to others in love with scientific evidence to cut through the lies they have been taught regarding the origins of life and existence.
Help us all this morning to keep You in the forefront of our thoughts throughout the day. Help us to reach out and help one another in love. Help us to share Your Gospel throughout our communities. It doesn't really matter which station or channel one gets their news from - we can all see that this nation and the world is in bad shape. We all agree that something needs to happen. We just don't all agree on what needs to happen, when and how. Lord God, You know what needs to happen. You have already told us in Your Word what needs to happen. We cry out to You now asking that You would humble all of Your people so that we would all turn to You and pray. We pray that You also cause Your children worldwide to rise up and stand for love, truth, and morality.
We pray that You would bring peace to Israel and Jerusalem. Help this nation continue to stand with Israel and Jerusalem, as it has in the past. We ask that You wake up the leadership of this country so that they may open their eyes to the destruction they are bringing upon this country themselves. And open the eyes of this population to see what the leaders we put into positions of authority are doing so that we will not do it again. I believe that there are many good people still in this world and that the time for Your return has not yet come (although I'm still watching and waiting). But good people have been too quiet for far too long. Wake us up Lord.
We love You, Jesus!
Amen

Good morning God
Dear God,
Good Morning. It's another beautiful start to another day. Thank You Lord for getting me up and getting me going on this morning. Jesus, today I just want to honor You. Help me to tune out all the distractions and tune into Your voice today. I do not want to dwell on the negative things in the news and on the radio, but I do not want to be ignorant of it either. Help me to find that balance today and everyday. Teach me wisdom, Jesus. Teach me how to live so that I am not leaning to the right or to the left but upon You. I pray that You would make my soul more sensitive to the leading of Your Holy Spirit. Help me hurt for the hurting and encourage the discouraged. Help me humble myself so that I don't think more of myself than I should. Help me serve those around me with joy and thanksgiving.
Lord, I love You. And all I want to do is please You with my life. I want to honor You with everything You have given me. I love You, Jesus!
Amen

This Morning
Dear Lord,
This morning I want to thank You for seeing me through another day and night. Thank You for waking me up today. I am healthy and feel refreshed. I know that today I will encounter many people, either in person or in passing; it is my prayer today that You will help me share Your love with those I encounter today. Help me to serve You, Jesus, today. You have said that everything I do should be done as unto You; please help me live that out today. Open my eyes to the needs of those around me. Open my ears to the voices of the hurting and needy today. Help me look for the good around me. And enable me to bless those around me. Teach me how to turn bad into good. Help me impact this community for You. I pray that You would use me to reach out to others today.
I love You, Jesus!
Amen

A Prayer for Guidance
Lord God,
First, I want to start by thanking You for bringing me safely this far. Thank You for all the many blessings You've given to me. Thank You for bringing my friends and family through everything they have been through as well. Thank You for being with us not only in word but in deed.
Lord, I need help. You have been so good to me, but I feel that I have been misrepresenting You. As You know, I have been doing my best and standing up for what I believe, but in all that, I think I have been missing the mark set by love. Help me to show more love. You know how much I love, but help me to spread that love and show that love to those around me. Help me learn to fight my battles with the weaponry of love rather than being defensive and even offensive with my faith. Help me share my faith with those around me even just through my life and conduct. Polish the mirror of my soul so that I may reflect more of You, Lord Jesus. Let Yourself be seen in me. I know many people around me need to hear Your Gospel. And many more, non-believers and believers alike, need to experience Your love flowing from Your church.
There are so many of us that have forgotten what it means to love and became too busy pointing out and discussing what is wrong with the world. We have become more focused on the problems and less focused on the solution, which is You - our Savior. Help us re-prioritize our lives. Help us to shift our focus to who/what really matters. Jesus, help us be more like You.
Amen

Thank You, Jesus
Dear Jesus,
I just want to take a few minutes here to thank You for this weekend. It's not quite over yet. But it has been great so far! I so enjoyed spending time with my parents. You even let me see one of my sisters, her husband, and her son at the same time! That was awesome! Jesus, You are so good to me. All I want to say is 'Thank You'. You also gave us time to sit down and catch up with a couple of good friends last night. And we are so excited for all that You are doing in their lives as well. Although it's only Sunday morning and there's a full day's activities and roughly 400 miles until we get home, this has been a great weekend. Thank You so much!
Amen
