Dear Family of Love,
It has been a wild past few days! I'm feeling much better and I can't believe that today if my blood work is okay that I will have Chemo #8 . This morning I decided to write a special morning blog just for you. Do you all realize how much you matter? You matter to God, me, and all of our family members.Today is Take Care Tuesday. We all must take time to care for our bodies, minds, and spirits, This means keeping watch over our daily activities and surroundings. God always wants us to take care. That is what being a good steward it all about. I did this for the past few days and it worked. We all must take time to find peace at the center and take time for morning prayers and meditation as well. They are a part of the Breakfast of Champions too. They don't have to be very long. Just a way to start the day off right. So this morning as we prepare for today, let us take time to do what we usually do in the evening and allow time to find peace at the center. Get out your timers, music, or Tibetan Mindfulness Bowl app and set it for what ever time you can take.

Gracious and loving God we thank you for this new day and all that it brings with it . May we feel your loving presence and encouragement in our lives today.
This morning we remember before you O Lord your broken and tender world that is in need of love, mercy, justice, and peace.
We pray for all those who teach and those who learn that every day brings a new voyage of discovery and wonder.
We pray for all of our family members who are ill that they may find comfort, healing, and the strength to bear their illnesses with grace.
We pray for all who continue to mourn losses of any kind that they may be able to meet each day with a little less sorrow and find time to remember with joy and laughter.
We pray for all faith communities that there will be respect and love between them and that divisions may cease and that everyone will know that we are all God's Children.
We pray for energy to meet the day ahead and choose wisely those things we must do or lay down.
We pray for those who are or will be undergoing medical treatments of any kind. Give us courage to see these times as retreats and times to spend with you in prayer and relaxation.
We especially remember the caregivers who have a lot on their plates and that they may find time for respite.
We pray especially for_______________________________
