daily prayer

     Good morning! How are we faithing?  It's hard today to concentrate on writing because my buddy's son just passed away. I know what is ahead and man o man... I would like to ask everyone today to remember my friend and his family but also to look out beyond our own deals and see what is happening out there.  People are hurting in ways we don't see and sometimes that person who is acting like an idiot may be pain and we forget that they may be lashing out at who is in front of them and not us as the focus per say. Taking on Jesus and showing that heart full of peace and love may be exactly what that person needs at that point. As that person acts in this manner, pause and watch and listen, you may see something that requires a calm loving response which is exactly how Jesus dealt with situations. Sometimes a riled response is necessary but more often than not a loving word or a kind gesture is much better served.


  Heb 4:14-16
  Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.   For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.  Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.


Heavenly Father,
  Thank you for your loving kindness that covers us. Lord we ask for peace and love for those who are hurting. We ask for wisdom to see truth and the courage to act in a loving manner even when we want to lash out. Lord comfort those in despair, in Jesus name, amen
