Dear Family of Love and Pilgrims on our Journey!
Tonight I'm honoring my body and taking a break from the prayer trail and praying in place!
I don't know about you but all the anticipation leading up to Christmas adds stress to one's body. So we are going have a little bit of prayer time! Tomorrow photos and a walk to be sure.
Let us pray!
Lord God we thank you for the gift of your Son Jesus and his example of unconditional love.
We thank you for the gift of family and especially the gift of this your family of Love. May we be good examples of how to bring hope, make peace, give joy, and carry your love to a broken world.
Lord we pray for those who spent Christmas alone. May we reach out to them with a loving and tender touch and remember to connect with them in some way.
We pray for our Troops and their families who may spend Christmases apart.
We give thanks to you God for all the many Christmas Blessings that you bestow upon us not just on Christmas but everyday!
We pray for _______________________
We give thanks for__________________
We celebrate the lives of loved ones who we cannot see any longer______________________
We lay all of our unnecessary stresses, anxieties, worries, and anything else that gets in the way of our daily prayer time with you at your feet knowing that you are handling each of these better than we can.
We pray for our lonely, lost, homeless, and hungry family members.and all the least of these.
We remember and pray for all those who have addictions and mental illnesses.
We pray for all our family members who are on the streets tonight without proper shelter especially Buena Vista Vince (He is a man who takes shelter at a bus stop across from Buena Vista Park. He has his designated spot and goes back and forth from the park to the bus stop. He is always there) Pray for all who are in similar situations.
Lord watch over all of our law enforcement officers and emergency rescue personnel.
We pray for much needed rainfall. Lord we need it now more than ever. We continue to pray for all areas where there is severe weather and all those who have been affected.
Help us to see the good in all situations and find positive nuggets.
Give us grace to honor our bodies and get rest this night and may we rest gentle in your arms of love.
We lift up these prayers and thanksgivings to you O Lord with grateful and humble hearts.Amen.
Lord God, I thank you especially for this my family that they will continue to walk with me on our journey and that they may always know that they are loved, treasured, and that they matter to you and to me. May we continue to be the lights of Hope, Peace Joy, and Love to the world. Amen.
