We often pray for our family, friends and loved ones. Praying for those who are sick, injured or going through some crises.
We pray for end results, or a fix to something that is turning our lives upside down.
Praying for material things, or love from the unknown. Do we pray more at Christmas time? Do we expect more?
As we go through the lacking efforts of just acknowledging and putting Christ every part of every one of our days.
We raise concerns that we are taking IN GOD WE TRUST out of the public eye. We raise concerns that someone wants to be different and make it a law we can not have CHRISTMAS during the CHRISTMAS season. But everything is now a holiday.
Yet do we really step out and acknowledge that “Jesus is the reason for every season!”
Sure we all believe in something. I am not here to judge you; I know what I believe and what works for me.
I am no authority; but I know what has worked for me.
So why can’t we have:
Prayers for our father that May He never get tired of our human lacking ways and inabilities.
Prayers for those who judge and determine they have all the answers and quickly condemn or have something better for the people, places and things they encounter on a daily basis.
Prayers for all our care givers, and care takers. May God's strength and will continue to fill their lives, allowing all of us the blessings of their services at one time or another.
Prayers for those with addictions that they feel so out of touch they have to numb themselves from all they deal with on a daily basis.
Prayers for our Service Men and Women; away from the comforts of home, in the middle of all that will be forever imprinted on their hearts and minds.
Prayers for the throw away parents, May God teach you abstinence, and/or ways to protect the blessings you are just not ready to accept.
Prayers for the evil minds; that God has mercy on your souls, and warms your hearts to stop all the harmful sick things you are doing.
Prayers for the cheaters, liars, and thieves may God give you strength, courage and will to want to do what is right.
Prayers for the takers, which must continually use up what others have, yet can not get out and do for themselves or show they can do for others.
That doesn’t mean I don’t believe in prayers for all that are in need, desperate, hurting, sick, dying.
Prayers for the husband or wife who has been together for years and one will now suffer loneliness as the other has gone ahead.
Prayers for the children, who are beaten, broken, tormented and tortured, left to cry in the dark if they are even able to make a sound at all.
Prayers for the people who are suffering issues with mental illness; afraid and alone in the world of their own.
Prayers for the person unemployed, not knowing how they will feed or house their family, feeling so strapped they just can not go on.
Prayers for all that can never see past the darkness this world sometimes over whelms us with.
Thank you Lord for protecting our nations; thank you for allowing we mere specs in the grand scheme of things to even one ability of your life and wisdom.
Not only on this day; but every day you allow us life and freedom of choice.
For I will never be a scholar when it comes to knowing even a sliver of what you really have done for me or anyone else of this world.
But I know I have been blessed in more ways then I can ever repay.
I will still want things I should not have, I will still do things I should have never done.
And in the end I know despite even my best efforts on my best days. I or anyone I know could never deserve your blessings.
Yet you have and continue to bless me and my family and friends and people I may never know. THANK YOU
Happy Birthday Jesus
During this CHRISTmas season and every day~
With all that I am, All that I was always then, always now, always me Kelly
