A Simple Child-like Prayer

sometimes a simple child's prayer is exactly what we need. The following poem/prayer seems to fit today.

Children's Morning Prayer

Lord, in the morning I start each day,
By taking a moment to bow and pray.
I start with thanks, and then give praise
For all your kind and loving ways.
Today if sunshine turns to rain,
If a dark cloud brings some pain,
I won't doubt or hide in fear
For you, my God, are always near.

I will travel where you lead;
I will help my friends in need.
Where you send me I will go;
With your help I'll learn and grow.

Hold my family in your hands,
As we follow your commands.
And I will keep you close in sight
Until I crawl in bed tonight.

Amen.

-- Mary Fairchild

A Prayer for the Children

Check Out: Look At All The Lonely People

Today, Lord, we wish to pray for the children, especially those that are within our family. We ask that you will protect them and keep them from the evil one. Put a barrier of your love around them so they stay within your way and so that those that would lead them astray cannot do so. You are a loving Father and we trust these we love to your hands. Amen. 

Lo, children arean heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward. (Psalms 127:3)

Stewardship?

I am overwhelmed with gratitude. You have blessed me with a great family, good friends, and all my needs. Still, I am not a very good steward of these gifts. I do not pray for family like I should. I do not cultivate and nurture my relationship with my family or my friends. I often neglect the necessary things you have provided. 

Today I ask you to help me be a better steward of the blessings you have granted. 

And he called him, and said unto him, How is it that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship… Luke 16:2

Help Me Love

Help me to love what is important and not to love what the world loves. Help me to love my family, my brothers and sisters in Christ, and you with the kind of love you have for me. Help me to learn to also love my enemies. Amen.

And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ. (2Th 3:5)

A Prayer for Family

Lord, today I wish to express my gratitude for my family. We are an imperfect clan with each member having good traits and bad traits.  Nevertheless, we are the family you have assembled. Help each of us to fulfill the purpose you have intended with an abundance of love and encouragement toward each other. Amen.
