Arms Reaching Up to God

This is to be a prayer journal for my reach to God. I have been thinking lately about the fact that my heart is full of prayers that I can't seem to articulate and I think the Holy Spirit desires to pray through me. This will be for that purpose.

Lord, I want to do your will, and I pray that your will be done on earth as in heaven.
My heart is filled with the problems of family and friends and I don't know how to pray for them, because I don't understand what outcomes would be best, but You do. So I mention their names before you and realize that You know their pain --
for Donald, Ashley and Shane, Sierra and Jimmy
for Paula and Denny
For Carla
for Nancy and Ed and Jeanie and Mike
for Charles and Marie
for Monica and Mark

These are who is on my heart today.

God, help me to develop my prayer life and accomplish whatever You desire through it.

God, I understand that it is Your will that we should be frustrated with the world as it is, that we should be upset with the evils in this world, and that being unhappy with those things should make us seek You. It has done that for me - I pray that it will have the same effect on these others.
