Our Anniversary

In the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.  I can’t believe that about 22 years ago I met the man of my dreams.  My Lord, You have blessed me with so many wonderful things in my life, I love my husband so much.  I ask that the Holy Spirit help me to always be loving to my husband, not selfish and to put him first.  He is my joy and helps me through difficult times.  He gives me strength through his love and patience, even when I do not deserve patience.  He is a strong protector, loving father and thoughtful husband.  His laughter brings me such happiness, and I love the years I have laughed with him thus far.  Help me Lord, to always remember that our relationship is a gift from You, never to be taken for granted, but continually full of kindness.  I love him so much that I do not want to be self-centered, or focus so much on things that worry me, that I forget him and how he is feeling.  Each day with him is a blessing.  I will treasure the time together that you have given to us.  Thank you God for Dave, the love of my life, the joy in my heart, my true companion forever.  In Your precious Name I pray.  Amen

My Aunt is Dying

In the Name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.  My dearest Lord Jesus,  Today my mom received a call that my Aunt Louise had fallen into a comatose state.  Upon seeing her this afternoon, my heart was terribly saddened.  The memories of her strength and joyousness flood my mind and it hurts so bad to see my family hurting and Aunt Louise suffering.  Please Lord, be at my Aunt’s side during her last hours on earth.  I know that we are not made to stay here on earth forever, and that she must return back home to you.  Help her pain, ease her suffering, help to purify her heart to be more like You.  My dear Lord, help my family during this time, ease their anxieties and let them feel as though they have been good children, sisters, grandchildren, nieces and nephews to Aunt Louise.  Guide us as a family to come closer to You and together help each other with compassion and love.  Please help her Lord. Bless her and give her peace.  Thank you for your never-ending love for us.  Her life has been a true blessing in my life.  Thank you for the gift of family.  May we all be together again someday in your heavenly kingdom.  All glory and honor are yours, Lord Jesus.  In Your precious name I pray. Amen

Where is your home?

In the Name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.  Dear Lord,  As I go about my business of the day, I see people who are struggling to survive.  This is happening in America, the land of plenty.  Concerned with things that I have scheduled for the day, I ignore the suffering around me.  This embarrasses me, as it is not the example that you wish for me to lead.  It leads me to ask myself, where is my home?  Is it truly held close in Your heart?  Do I run towards the pain of others, or do I walk away?  Is my home with You, the Father, or is it set in material things of the world?    Yesterday, I found out that a very famous movie/television star in Malibu picks up the homeless, puts them in the front seat of his car, feeds them and then takes them where they are going.  This is love.  This is compassion.  I wish to learn from people who truly love in the moment like this, just like Mother Teresa did while on earth.  Let me look people in the eye and dig deep to their need through compassion, by taking the time to listen, and to realize that everyone is fighting a great battle inside.  Thank you Lord for all the wonderful blessings that I have.  Breathe in me Holy Spirit, to guide my heart to take action in Your will.  In Your Precious Name I Pray.  Amen

Take Time in Life

In the Name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.  Dear Lord, My life seems to be moving so quickly as times slips away.  I tend to spend so much time looking to the future, that sometimes I forget to enjoy the blessings of the day.  Help me to slow down and focus on what is happening in the moment.  May I smile at my children and listen to their requests and needs.  May I be loving to my husband, realizing that one day, he will no longer be on earth for me to hold.  My parents, family and friends, I want to be compassionate and caring to them every day.  Thank you Lord, for the beautiful gift of their love.  In Your precious Name I Pray.  Amen

I Will Turn

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.  Dear Lord, Everyday of my life, I make mistakes and everyday Lord, I want to be better.  Thank you for your forgiveness and unconditional love for me.  Whenever I pull away from you, I will turn and come back to you.  I will follow you always.  I will recreate myself into the image you want me to be.  You alone are my desire, may the Holy Spirit guide me, and turn to You.  In Your precious name I pray.  Amen

My Husband is a Blessing

In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.  Thank you Father for the wonderful blessing of my husband.  Please help us to always be focused on the love that you showed to us when we first met and the stronger love we now have grown to know.  Guide us to be slow to anger, quick to forgive and always to listen to your Word.  Lead us where you want us to go in life, and help us to be aware of Your call.  Thank you for the blessing of my husband.
