Dear Heavenly Father,

If you would like to continue reading my writings, I have moved to Loving God Holy at WordPress. Thank you.

Thank you for another day of life on Your glorious creation. I come to You this morning to petition for Your Pastors and all the men and women who are doing Your work this morning. Please watch over them. Help them to make themselves an empty vessel for You to help all of us.

Lord, they need Your Love and Strength just as much as the rest of us do. Let us forget to pray for them. They work so hard, and sometimes it gets very hard. Help them to be still and know that You are God. Help them to hold onto their Faith.

I pray for the Online Pastor. Please protect him from all harm and evil; spiritually, physically, emotionally, and mentally. As well as our (the USA) men and women in the Military, their families, and loved ones. Also, I pray for their coalition partners who are fighting against The Enemy.

I pray the people whom work so hard trying to save those who do not know You. May they have a renewed spirit day by day. You are so faithful, Lord. Thank You so much.

I also pray for those who have been injured and those families of the ones who have come home. Please Comfort them, Love them, ease their pain, and put a hedge of Your Love around them. Grant them the will to carry on. I pray this also for those who are thinking about suicide. Help them to feel Your presense and know this is not the answer. Help them to hold on just a little longer until they can see past their pain.

God, why do people want to kill us? Why are they so evil? I know the answer, but sometimes this weighs heavy on my mind. Like the genocide in Darfur, Sudan, and the Ayatollahs in Iran. Won't You please crush them? They are our enemies. They are the children of Satan, I do believe.

I do not believe all Muslims are of this mind. That is something I cannot wrap my mind around. I know some very kind and gentle people who happen to be Muslims. I cannot even imagine them to be my enemy. Please lead me.

Help us to renew our minds and please purify our hearts. Make us white as snow. Ready at all times to do Thy will. I love You so much, Lord. Help me to be a better witness for You. I know I am missing the mark. I repent not reading Your word everyday. I also repent the evil thoughts of hatred I hold onto. Except the hatred of the enemies, for I am not ready to release that hatred. Please forgive me, but I will not. I do not believe I am supposed to.

Did You not say, 'To hate the things the Lord hates is the beginning of wisdom'? Is this what you meant? I pray it is. Please help me, Lord.

Thank You for being all powerful, all knowing, omnipresent, loving, the same yesterday-today-and tomorrow, and for loving us enough to give Your One and Only Son to go to the Cross in our place, that whosoever believes in Him, shall not perish, but have eternal life. I have no words to express my gratitude. It is overwhelming. Thank You loving us this much. In Jesus' Precious name I pray.

Amen.
