Dear Lord, let this moment be a special one with You. When I think about your love and grace, it really amazes me. Thank You for showering Your blessings to me everyday.

Thank You for creating me in Your image and likeness. I also pray for Your gift of freedom. Let Your Holy Spirit guide those in power to work for equality for all your people.

When I seek healing, courage and forgiveness, You are faithful to grant it to me. Let me reflect also on Your Word everyday. In Your Loving presence, I find rest and contentment.

Dear Jesus, I come before You today. I long for Your presence everyday. Nothing can separate us from Your love, O Lord.

Let my heart’s desire is to love You more and more each day. Thank You for calling us Your friends. It is indeed a great privilege that the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords calls us His friends.

I am grateful for the things that You have done to me. Please forgive me from all of my transgressions. And, be with us each day, Lord.


Amen.

Dear Lord, let Your grace be enfolded in our Spirit. We receive Your wonderful blessings in our lives today. Day and night, You are always there when we call upon Your Name.

Thank You for always waiting, listening to our call. Many times our fear of being hurt keeps us from being honest about our struggles. Help us to remember how much You love us.

Help us also to be patient and loving with others. Let unity and peace clothe us today. We love You, Lord.


Amen.

Dear Jesus, today I call on You in a special way. I just want to be with You, today. Let my heart respond to Your love.

Mostly, I am asking for favours, but now, I want to feel Your presence. Let my heart not be troubled. Help me to trust in You always.

I am sorry if I take for granted Your gift of freedom to me. Inspire me to live in freedom you intended. Let me use this correctly for the glory of Your Kingdom.


Amen.

Today We Pray - Nov 3, 2016

                       

Lord, you are always there
waiting for me.
May I never be too busy to
find time to spend in your presence.

A thick and shapeless tree-trunk
would never believe that it could become a statue,
admired as a miracle of sculpture,
and would never submit itself to the chisel of the sculptor,
who sees by his genius what he can make of it .
I ask for the grace to let myself be shaped by my loving Creator.

I ask how I am within myself today?
Am I particularly tired, stressed, or off-form?
If any of these characteristics apply,
can I try to let go of the concerns that disturb me?

Amen.

Today We Pray - Nov 2, 2016

                     

I pause for a moment
and reflect on God's life-giving presence
in every part of my body, in everything around me,
in the whole of my life.

By God's grace I was born to live in freedom.
Free to enjoy the pleasures He created for me.
Dear Lord, grant that I may live as You intended,
with complete confidence in Your Loving care.

Where do I sense hope, encouragement, and growth areas in my life? By looking back over the last few months, I may be able to see which activities and occasions have produced rich fruit.  If I do notice such areas, I will determine to give those areas both time and space in the future

Today We Pray - Nov 1, 2016

                                        

Dear Lord, help me to be fully alive in Your Holy Presence. Wrap Your arms around me, let me feel Your love. Let our hearts become one.

Thank You also for the gift of life that You have given to me. Teach me to slow down, to be still and know that You are God. Help me to be aware the beauty of things that surrounds me.

Empower me with Your love, Lord. I am Yours, forever. Your love and grace really amazes me.


Amen.
