Another prayer
Just when you think something significant is going on in your life something happens to someone you know that makes everything you are dealing with trivial and silly. Not to demean our own challenges and trials but at times we have to put them aside so that we can remember that in life we really only have one another. Our treasures that we store up in heaven are our relationships with one another. So here is an open prayer...
Lord,
First and foremost forgive me for my transgressions against You, my family and friends and myself for all to often I get wrapped up in my plans. Also let me thank You for the blessings you have put in my life and blessings you continue to shower down on us.
I ask for you to be with Chris and his family as they greave the passing of their father today. For Michael and his family who also suddenly lost their father on father's day. Be with them. I can only imagine the pain and suffering that one goes through when loosing a close parent and my heart goes out to them. Provide them with comfort and peace in a time of uncertainty. Bring hope into their lives and allow them to grieve in your arms.
Lord be with our friends. Comfort for their loss, hope for their future, healing for their hearts and minds. I can only hope that you will bless them with a child in your time and allow them the joy for which they long. Nothing can replace what was taken and we can only hope for peace in time. Provide them with a renewed sense of hope and joy in their lives. Heal their family. I thank you so much for their friendship without which I may still be stumbling along the rocks of the cliffs. Bless them Lord.
For our friends and families who seem lost in their marriages and are seeking renewal I ask that you grant them a new love and joy. Remind them of the reasons they married the choices they made. Help the turmoil and anger to fade away into the past and bring forward the memories of joy.
For my son. Health. Safety.
For my wife. Joy, Peace, Restful sleep. That I might continue to be worthy to be her Husband.
For myself. Forgiveness, Guidance, Strength, Peace.
Thank you for listening to my prayers.
In His Name
Amen.
