Lord, I am filled with sadness, yet I praise You this morning because I am making my choice to "choose life". I will see your goodness and the blessings of this life instead of focusing on the problems and hurts.God, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven! Lord, pray through me - let me be an instrument of your peace. I pray this morning for Muslims everywhere, that they will begin to see the truth and move in the direction of your Way. I pray for robin Howard as she ministers to Muslims in Europe - give her the insight she needs. I pray for Nancy Schaffer at the NJ Womens Center - help me to reach out there and see if I can help. Lord, I pray for my church - GMVUMC - I think it does good for people, but help it to be able to change to meet the needs of a new generation (help me also). And for all the Church - help it not to be just an institution but truly your Body, the incarnation of your love and justice. And God, I feel impelled to write some things and need to set aside a little time - help me to do that. God, I just want to live in your Will, trusting that you will guide my steps - help me to pray appropriately. Lord, my greatest concerns this morning in my family are for Donald and Ashley. They need to really know You - Lord I know you have revealed some aspects of yourself to them - continue to reach out to them and show them how submission to your Way would help them. Pour out Love upon them - the love that even I have for them, imperfect as it is, but Your love is so precious! Help me to be the bringer of that Love to them- my heart overflows with it and I need to be able to demonstrate that Love in new ways. And I pray for the baseball event that our church is involved with this weekend - infuse your spirit into all the games and fellowship so that people will see You.
Amen
