Life is shorter for some
Watch the man on the left walking, crossing the road where there is no car. It is so definite that the coast on the left is clear, and safe to cross. Any person would see it is safe....
Take nothing for granted, not even for a split second!
Be grateful for every living minute.
We seem to take life for granted.... but Tomorrow is Not Promised...
Relax your mind and humble your heart to focus on Christ..
Allow God to be the only person on your mind while you
read this prayer. If we can take the time to read long jokes,
stories, etc., we should give the same respect to this prayer.
Friends, who pray together, stay together.
Dear Lord, I thank you for this day.
I thank You for my being able to see
and to hear this morning. I'm b lessed
because You are a forgiving God and
an understanding God. You have done
so much for me and You keep on
blessing me. Forgive me this day for
everything I have done, said or thought
that was not pleasing to you. I ask now
for Your forgiveness.
Please keep me safe from all danger and harm.
Help me to start this day with a new attitude
and plenty of gratitude. Let me make the best
of each and every day to clear my mind so that
I can hear from You.
Please broaden my mind that I can accept all things.
Let me not whine and whimper over things I have
no control over. Let me continue to see sin through
God's eyes and acknowledge it as evil. And when I
sin, let me repent, and confess with my mouth my
wrongdoing, and receive the forgiveness of God.
And when this world closes in on me, let me
remember Jesus' example -- to slip away and find
a quiet place to pray. It's the best response when
I'm pushed beyond my limits. I know that when
I can't pray, You listen to my heart. Continue to
use me to do Your will.
Continue to bless me that I may be a blessing to
others. Keep me strong that I may help the weak.
Keep me uplifted that I may have words of
encouragement for others. I pray for those who are
lost and can't find their way. I pray for those who
are misjudged and misunderstood. I pray for those
who don't know You intimately. I pray for those
who will delete this without sharing it w with
others. I pray for those who don't believe. I thank
you that I believe.
I believe that God changes people and God changes
things. I pray for all my sisters and brothers. For
each and every family member in their households.
I pray for peace, love and joy in their homes that they
are out of debt and all their needs are met.
I pray that every eye that reads this knows there is
no problem, circumstance, or situation greater than
God. Every battle is in Your hands for You to fight.
I pray that these words be received into the hearts of
every eye that sees them and every mouth that
confesses them willingly..
This is my prayer.
In Jesus' Name, Amen.
