Abide thou with Me, fear not…but with Me thou shalt be in safeguard.
1 Samuel 22:23
Lord, I thank You for my friends. Bless and keep them, these special people You created and filled with qualities that have meant so much to me. Thank You for all the times we’ve shared together. Bless our friendship. Amen.
<><
If you have true friends – take a moment to appreciate them. Praise them for their attributes and hold them accountable when they stray, you are aware that they do the same for you. Speak in love all the time! You never know who is watching and listening – seeds are sometimes planted without our knowledge!!

Wisdom
May 27, 2008 – Tuesday
The counsel of the Lord standeth for ever, the thoughts of His heart to all generations.
Psalm 33:11
We would be more grateful if we knew how much of what we take for granted is planned by God.
<><
Oh Heavenly Father, I think that I am dependant on You, and then You show me that I have been relying on my own understanding and bring me back into Your arms and realize Your wisdom in the situation. I am thankful that You have chosen a path for me to walk, and I am so grateful that You have not forsaken me. Lord, I see the positive in each situation, and remain joyful through the storm. I trust You as we walk through the day together!! In Jesus Heavenly Name. Amen.

Creator
May 28, 2008 – Wednesday
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
Genesis 1:1
Thank You Father for the reminder that You can make something out of nothing. Amen.
<><
Abba, You are so Awesome and Powerful. There isn’t anyone or thing that can compare to You. God help me to take the focus off of my little life and fix it on You. God, all things just run better when You are in charge. Every little detail is considered and handled with love and grace. Father, I place my entire being in Your hands, and I trust that Your will be done. Lord, I pray for wisdom through this trial, as well as patience, peace and joy. God I am thankful that I am being taught by You. I rejoice in the fact that through this experience I will be closer to You, and hopefully more mature. Lord I pray that I am alert to the Holy Spirit moving within me, guiding and directing me so that Your tasks will be accomplished. In Jesus Precious Name. Amen.

Praising Others
May 29, 2008 – Thursday
Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips.
Proverbs 27:2
Help me, Father, to be humble today with my words. Amen.
<><
Oh Heavenly Father, Your Word is Alive and Active in me – and I believe that Your Holy Spirit resides within me and I can feel Your presence and Your guidance. God, when my flesh is weak then my tongue goes wild, You are always strong and I rely on You for everything that I need to get through the day. God – I look to You first and praise You through everything. God, thank You so very much for the rain this morning – You know how much I enjoy the rain and the trees – the wind blowing. God, You are just magnificent. God, You know that I learned about the battle in Joshua 10 last night. And as I was watching the rain come down, I wondered. God, do You tell each rain drop where to go too? I see You in the smallest detail – I know that You are concerned for every little thing on this planet – I am so thankful that You have chosen me as Your child. I am in Awe of You!! In Your Son’s Holy and Precious Name – Jesus!!! Amen!!

God's Light
May 30, 2008 – Friday
Men light a candle, and put it…on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
Matthew 5:15
Those who bring sunshine to the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves. – James Barrie
<><
Granted, I can testify to this statement but I don’t believe that we can intentionally try to turn those rays of sunshine on ourselves. God’s light must shine through me – He is the source of my Sonshine!!!
My version of this quote would be more like this:
Those who bring sunshine into the lives of others never realize that the affect they have.
Or
Those who bring sunshine to the lives of others can’t contain it. Only God can control the power of the Son.

Thank You, Father, for giving me the strength when I am weak. Amen.

A Prayer for the Ephesians
14For this reason I kneel before the Father, 15from whom his whole family[a] in heaven and on earth derives its name. 16I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, 17so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, 18may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, 19and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
20Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, 21to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.
