Today's Prayer

Heavenly Father,

I come to You this day with a heart so full. I know that You care about me and desire for me to lean on You and so today I thank You for Your grace and understanding. You are such an awesome God and send reminders of Your love and care, Your beauty and majesty. As I looked upon the rainbows in the sky I was once again reminded that you are alive and aware of your children and their needs.

Thank you for the gift of Your son who made my relationship with you possible. Through His shed blood I am free to call you Abba Father. I know that Your love for me is unspeakable, and when heart overflows with gratitude. Because of this love for me I come to You now with the burdens of my heart.

Lord I pray for our friends that are hurting today with the news of cancer in thier daughter. Lord we often do not understand Your ways. But we rest in the knowldge that You never promised our life here would be easy, only that You would walk with us through whatever we face. And so I pray for Your comfort and love. Surround them with Your pressence and guide them as they face days ahead when decisions will need to be made and hardships will need to be overcome. Remind them that at their lowest moments they can rest on You, for You promised to never leave us or forsake us. Thank You for the smiles from their little girl that may bring tears as they are reminded how much all of this hurts, but that those smiles and words of love from the one who hurts so much are just reminders of how much You love them and are providing for them in all ways. You are the Master Physician and so most of all I pray for healing. I pray that You use this in the life of this girl and this family in a wonderful and amazing way, that all who witness this may come to know You and Your love for them.

Thank You Father, for the blessings I see everyday, for the care You have taken to see to the details of my life and the reminders that you are with me in all things. It is in the Name of your precious Son and His shed blood that I pray, Amen
