Strength in Relationships

Dear God, I have loved well
but not too wisely.
I’ve given my heart to
someone who has not honored
that gift and I realize this relationship
does not serve either of us.

Please give me the courage
and strength to end this
relationship gracefully.

Help me to forgive,
heal and move on with my life
so that I may open the door to
new happiness

During Divorce

Father, my spouse has chosen
to break the vow made before you,
our families and friends at our wedding.
My heart is heavy and my soul aches.
I pray that you give me the courage
and strength to go through this divorce
with dignity, self respect and the knowledge
that you are always with me.

Amen

Sometimes

Sometimes

Lord, sometimes when I look in the mirror
I’m not too happy with what I see.
Please let me see me the way you made me,
beautiful and perfect just as I am.

Help me to hold this image in my mind and heart
as I follow my life’s path.
Allow others to witness your light shining through me
as I walk with confidence, grace and a smile on my face

This World

This World

Father, this world sometimes bewilders me
and is beyond my understanding.
I see poverty and disease,
storms and earthquakes, war and killing.
Many hearts are bound by ego and fear.

Please strengthen my faith in your higher purpose
and open my mind to the truth that everything is
unfolding according to your divine plan.

Let compassion and love for my brothers and sisters
flow from me and may we all be uplifted by your glory.

~Amen

I Will Lift Up My Eyes

I Will Lift Up My Eyes

I will lift up my eyes to the hills—
From whence comes my help?
My help comes from the LORD,
Who made heaven and earth.

He will not allow your foot to be moved;
He who keeps you will not slumber.
Behold, He who keeps Israel
Shall neither slumber nor sleep.

The LORD is your keeper;
The LORD is your shade at your right hand.
The sun shall not strike you by day,
Nor the moon by night.

The LORD shall preserve you from all evil;
He shall preserve your soul.
The LORD shall preserve your going out and your coming in
From this time forth, and even forevermore.

Comfort in Loss

Comfort in Loss

Dear Lord,

Please help me in this time of
loss and overwhelming grief.
I don't understand why my life
is filled with this pain and heartache.
But I turn my eyes to you as I seek
to find the strength to trust in your
faithfulness. I will wait on you and not
despair; I will quietly wait for your
salvation. My heart is crushed, but I know
that you will not abandon me forever. Please
show me your compassion, Lord. Help me through
the pain so that I will hope in you again.
I believe this promise in your Word to send me
fresh mercy each day. Though I can't see past
today, I trust your great love will never fail me.

Amen
