Heavenly Father,
   You are mighty and powerful.  You have created this world.  You have accepted me as your child.  Thank you for the gift of life.  Thank you for these trials.  May I use them to grow stronger in faith.  Amen

Lord,

Thank you, God, for the freedom of worship.  There are places in this world where belief in you is punishable by death.  I pray that all the believers in the world have a blanket of protection covering them.  Strengthen them, God.   Give them courage to spread your word to others.  Open the heart  of those persecuting them.  You can change their hearts, Lord, like you converted Paul.  Let us all pray for the freedom of worship.  Amen

God,
   Today we come to worship you and give you praise and glory.  We take time to reflect and meditate.  We take time to examine ourselves and discover any sins we may have committed in the past week.  Forgives us our transgressions.   Help us to forgive others who we feel have sinned against us.  Cleanse our hearts.  Renew our connection to you.  Amen

Lord,
   Enter my heart this very day.  Mold me into your vessel.  Use me today to spread your love to others.  Make me your servant.  Amen

God,
   Do you look down from heaven and become sadden with what you see here on earth?  Do you still have hope that we can become loving and giving people? 
   Sometimes I see the cruelness we inflict on others and cringe with shame.  We know better and we should do better.  Help us learn to treat everyone with kindness. 
   Sexual slavery needs to stops.  Hatred needs to stop.  Abuse needs to stop.  So please change our hearts. Guide us into becoming better.  Help us eradicate evil.  Encourage us to make a difference and conquer the hurtfulness on earth.  Amen

Amen

Lord God Almighty,
   I am your humble servant.  You have given me a new day.  Help me use it wisely.  Guide the words of my mouth so only love is sown by me today. 
   Please help those who are battling despair and depression.  Those suffering dark days need to feel your healing love.  It's awful to feel so far from you.  Give them a ray of sunshine.  Give them hope, Lord.    Amen

Lord,
   Please be with and send comfort to all the parents grieving the loss of their beloved child.  They have stood vigil at the bedside and knew nothing they could do would ease their child's suffering and date with death.  Their heart has cracked wide open.  You alone know the pain of seeing Your only Son suffer and die.  So please help these grieving parents.  You alone comprehend their pain.  Strengthen them and bolster them in this dark hour.  Amen

Lord, use me, my body, my mind, in such a manner that I, as They servant, may fill those lives and hearts and minds I meet - day by day- with such hope and faith and power in Thy might, that it might bring the awareness of Thy presence into the experience of others as well as myself.

Lord God,
    There are many who have been forced into sex slavery.  This oppression does grave damage to the heart.  I am asking for Your mercy for those poor innocent victims.  Aid those coming to their rescue.  Strengthen their resolve.  Let Your love find its way into the crevices and all the hidden corners of the broken hearts of those in this situation.  Amen
