God,
   Today is a day when  we pause and reflect,   We take time you honor You in worship.  We praise and glorify You.  Your might and majesty is awesome.  All power, glory and honor is Yours.  Alleuia, Alleuia, Alleuia.

God,
   It a new day and I am ready to do Your bidding.  Guide my steps.  Put a guard on the words of my mouth.  Use my hands to ease the pain of others.  Amen

Friday, September 28, 2012

Lord God,
   Many, many thanks for taking the pain away.  I can actually move my back this morning.  It gave me great joy to move without pain.  So thank You, Lord.  I will rejoice in Your goodness.  Amen

God,
   Look at all the broken people in the world.  They are hurting and scared.  They need help.  So my prayer to You today is to send Your healing love to them and I know the only way that happens is when You use us to pass Your love on to them.  We must use our arms to hug them and comfort them.  You must put the consoling words in our mouth to start the healing process.  We must recognize that through You we have the power to aid each broken and hurt person and we do this through interactions with each other.  Empower us to show our love and compassion to the hurting, broken folks we meet each day.  Amen

Almighty God,
    You have created this world and You have made me Your child.  So thank You for these gifts.  I count my blessings and the most important of them all is being Your child.  That makes me happy, God.  It's great to know we are family.  Amen

Morning Lord,
   I must confess that I don't want to get up and get to work.  I want to be a slug a bug and pull the covers back over me.  I want to tell the world I am too tired to start the day so just leave me alone. 
    But that is not what You want from me.  You want me to serve others and do it lovingly.  You want me to bolster and encourage others.  So if that's the plan, then God, You have got Your work cut out for You because I am totally relying on Your grace to get through the day. Be with me. Energize me. Use me.    Amen

Gracious and Loving God,
  All power and glory are Yours.  Your kingdom on earth is filled with marvel and wonder.  Let all I do be in service.  Make me Your instrument.  Use me.  Amen

Lord God.
  I can't thank You enough for allowing me back to set my prayer down at this site.  I felt really lost without my morning talk with You.  So thank You for getting me on-line.  Thank You for time to pray.  Thank You for being there for me in time of pain and time of disconnect.  It is by faith that we know You when we are tested.  So thank You for testing me.  You must really love me.  Amen

God,
  Be with all health care workers today.  Use their healing hands to ease the suffering of the sick.  Guide their steps and lighten their load.  Amen

Monday, September 17, 2012

Holy Father,
   As I awake and plan for the day, I ask You to be with me.  Guide my steps, put a guard on my mouth so my words only help - not hinder, use me to extend Your love to all I interact with throughout the day.   Amen

Sunday, September 16, 2012

Our Father, who art in heaven, may Thy kingdom come on earth through Thy presence in me, that the light of Thy word may shine unto those that I meet day by day.  May Thy presence in my brother be such that I may glorify Thee.  May I so conduct my own life that others may know Thy presence abides with me and thus glorify Thee.

Lord,
   Be with all of those who are facing surgery today.   Bless the hands that operate on the sick.  Be with the families waiting to hear the news.  Send comforters to all in need.  Amen

Friday, September 14, 2012

God,
   I am going to need Your help today to contain the pain.  I know with You I can get through anything.  Help me.  Help me.   Help me.  Amen
Lord God,
   All power and glory is yours.  I recognise Your might and majesty.  I am so glad I am Your child.  Thank You for sending Your son, Jesus, to take away my sin and making me one with You.  Amen

God,
    Another day has begun.  Protect me from all harm today.  Amen

Jesus Christ,
   You have made the ultimate sacrifice for me.  You have saved me and washed away my sins with Your blood.  All I can do is say thank You.  Thank You for rescuing me and making me worthy to be called a child of God.  Amen

Sunday, September 9, 2012

God,
  I am so happy I am Your child.  Today I come to honor you with worship and praise.  I recognize Your glory and might.  All the splendor of the world was created by You.  I am amazed at the workings of this world.  Thank you for sharing it with me.  Amen

Saturday, September 8, 2012

Okay, God, my body aches and creaks with every move I make.  Pain shoots through me like a knife.  You wants me to learn something and I know when I am in pain a lesson is coming my way.  But can I say enough already.  You have got my attention and I am waiting on You for further instruction and education in changing my ways.  Although I strive to abide by the ten commandments, I do have trouble with the greatest of them when it comes to loving my neighbor.  So You are going to have to help me there.  Please. 
Amen

Friday, September 7, 2012

My Lord God,
   Upon awakening I come to You with praise, glory and honor.  You have created a fabulous universe.  I am just a small part of that creation.  Show me how to aid You in making this world a better place.  Help me share Your love with everyone I encounter today.  Amen

Thursday, September 6, 2012

Jesus,
   I give my heart to You today.  I want to become a more loving person, following Your way as I go about the day.  Help me not to let the chaos of the world drown out Your message.  Still my being and let me center myself on You.  Amen

Wednesday, September 5, 2012

Lord God,
   Thank you for all the tireless home health care workers.  There are millions of elderly being cared for at home and these workers allow the caregivers little slices of time to get a life in the real world.  Bless the conscientious workers who bring joy to their clients.  Amen

Tuesday, September 4, 2012

God,
   There are friends who are mourning today.  Send your loving comfort to them.  Let me be of service to those who are suffering.  Amen

Sunday, September 2, 2012

Lord,
   In the grand scheme of things I know this is such a small matter.  But I am asking for the healing of my pet.  I love her and don't want to see her suffer.  Please touch her and heal her.  This I ask in the name of Jesus, your son.  Amen

God,
   There are many being enslaved right now as sex objects.  They are being abused physically and mentally.  There is no one to tell them that God loves them and sees their plight.  I am asking for grace for those trying to get free from the horrible sex trade.  Open doors, open shackles and make guards blind as they escape.  Give them safe harbors of refuge as their wounds heal.  Lift them up in love as You lifted up Jesus into Your loving arms when He died on the cross for us.  Let these poor, weak souls be refreshed.  Aid those who are trying to rescue them.  Put a blanket of safety over these rescue operations.  Amen
