Circle of Prayer (4/30/19)

Oh, Father Above! How great is your name and of great power! How magnificently you created all things and called all things Good! Lord, your creation brings you joy and gladness! Thank you for finding joy and gladness in us, your Day 6 creation!

Father, united in prayer, a circle of friends knit these words together for one creation specifically. I pray that you will heap these words into your cup and pour them out upon this mother and upon all mothers of the unborn. Father, creator and giver of life, I pray You will cast the heartache of abortion into the pit of hell. Free this world, this country, this city, this heart from the entanglement of this most dreadful lie.

This is our Circle of Prayer.

Oh, Dear Lord, please change ____________’s heart today! Intervene in a miraculous way! Dear Lord, bring words of life and dispel any fears that she may have. Have friends speak life and hope to her. Please protect this life and pour out your Holy Spirit! We are beseeching you for a miracle! Father, we pray hope for _________! And a supernatural sense of peace that can only come from You! Open her eyes and heart to the precious life growing inside her! Please, Jesus, move mountains in this situation! Show ____________ her options besides termination. Please sustain this life, in Jesus’ name! Lord, how I pray that this thread of prayer will pour from Your Hands upon ____________’s mind and upon ______________’s heart and into the life of this unborn child! Knit, I pray, these prayers together for your glory in the Name of Jesus Christ!!

Together we say, Amen and Amen!!

Your Light 4/23/19

Oh, Lord, my God, when I in awesome wonder behold the sun in all its glorious shine. Beckon its ray to touch my ever wintered skin that I may delight in the sweet kiss of its luster.

The moon, Oh Lord, has always been my favorite in all its watchful purity, yet the sun -when it is beaming your Light in such glorious display – fills my heart, my soul, and my mind with radiant life! Oh, how my soul sings in the refreshment of its drink!

Thank you. Just, Thank You! Thank you for speaking Light into the sun. Thank you for its beams, its rays, its vitamin D, and its heat. Oh, how I smile in its awakening!

Also, how I smile as I think of my sisters, my friends, who dread summer as I dread fall. Bless their backward heads 😉 and provide the shade their bodies desire. Allow their Light to shine through them in overly air conditioned buildings. Thank you for creating each of us in your image yet with such beautifully individual qualities!

Lord, selfishly, may I pray that I might shine your Light on my son. Oh, how my soul might just burst for all of eternity! May my light never dim that his little light only ever shine brighter!!!

Your Light, Lord, is who I am and your light, Lord, I will Shine!!

Shine!

Certainly there are good words; chocolate, wine, sex.  See? Those are good words. Smiles, heartbeats and palettes all peek at those words. There are so many words out there that touch our heart and smiles and heartbeats and palettes in personal and individual ways. I love that! I love words!

One of my favorite words is Shine. Always has. Perhaps it is courtesy of vintage Newsboys, perhaps it is simply the word whispered on my heart from the Holy Spirit. Nevertheless, I love this word! Read more
