Another day Lord...
Thank you for a quiet day. Time to read and to reflect. Help us to bolster for tomorrow...start of a busy week. Much to do.
Sometimes we have so much on our minds and in our hearts but aren't quit able to put It into words. I am so glad that we don't necessarily have to...so glad that You already know what it is even when we can't put words to it.
So now it is bed time...and I pray for rest.
Goodnight Lord, Amen.

Good Morning Lord,
Looking forward to getting some things done today, including getting my car checked out. Praying it is only a minor problem but want to get it fixed. Miss taking Preacher and Cooper for rides...and I think they miss it too and I need a car I can trust.
Please watch over my children as they start their week at work and at school. Have a two hour delay at my grandson's school. My son starts a new job...am grateful it is closer to home than the job in Georgia. I am grateful he can get good jobs with good companies...just pray they can be closer to home.
Praying for my church today. So much has been postponed due to the snow and ice. We didn't have church or Sunday School on Sunday...praying we can all get together this week and nothing has to be postponed because of the weather.
Praying for the deacons...that they will take the Pastor's advice and have a retreat...learn more about what it means to be a deacon and what deacons do. The main thing is for them to connect with You the way the transition team has done and begin to work together with You as leader...praying for Your will then following. Works a lot better that way and I am praying they will work towards that...
As I read the news today I will try to keep in mind that things aren't falling apart...they are just falling into place. Will try not to get so discouraged, angry, frustrated and flustered and will try to stay on task...
Lord, am praying for an early and quiet spring...with not too many snakes. Got my gun cleaned and ready just in case.
I pray in Jesus Name, Amen.

Lord,
Got some bad news today and am worried about an old friend and one of the best bosses I have had in this life. He has had two bypass surgeries over the past 10 or so years, and today found out he is in the hospital, and will be getting a stint tomorrow. He is 70 years old. I want to pray for him, that the surgery will be successful. Also praying for his wife...another good friend. Praying for Your will in this.
Praying for our country...heard the bombers today...all day. It was a reminder to me that Netanyahu is in Washington and will be speaking in Congress tomorrow. Our country is so divided and the leadership so poor...and I know what You have said about the fate those who bless and curse Israel...
Praying for my county. Our Board of Supervisors are still divided...and still have no chairman. Conducting business is difficult and the entire mess is making my county look ridiculous...statewide.
Lord, I am looking forward to spring...
Goodnight Lord...

Good Morning Lord,
Got my friend on my mind this morning. Feel guilty because I overslept and my friend and his wife are going thru heart surgery and over sleeping is the last thing they can do. I am worried. I remember my Uncle John and that 10 years is about the limit on a heart by-pass. He died about 10 years later. I am praying the stents will be the answer for my friend...I know how ever it goes he will be OK. Good medical staff and family to take care of Bob...To be absent from the body is to be with You.
Am praying for Netanyahu's speech in Congress. I pray it will have a good impact and influence people to do the right things with regards to Iran. I pray for Netanyahu's safety. The amount of air traffic yesterday told me security is tight.
Praying for the world today...trying to keep in mind the saying I heard. "In the world things aren't falling apart, they are falling into place." I know it is all part of You plan and that is a comfort when I see all the death, war and violence...hatred and division...
calls to mind something in Revelation "Even so, Come Lord Jesus." I pray for that day but also pray, just one more day...so many of our family and friends to reach out to Lord...so, one more day.
Praying as always for my own little family. Keep them safe as they go thru their day and bring them all home safely to You at the end of the day...and at the end of time.
I pray in Jesus Name, Amen

Good morning Lord,
Going to be a busy day. Good Samaritan and then riding lessons with Becks.
There are some problems...I am concerned about. Still trying to make a decision on the house. Winter is coming between me and making those decisions. Would like to meet with the builder to see the costs.
Winter blahs have set in...eating too much. Days are running alone one into another. Looking forward to spring with everyone else.
Lord, please forgive my sins...I know there are plenty.
Watch over my family as they go thru their day at work and at school.
In Jesus Name I pray, Amen

Learned that the husband of an old friend died today. Heart attack. Have her on my mind Lord. Please be with her and her family...
Praying for someone I heard about...an older man who had to be removed from his home because he could no longer care for himself. He was put in a nursing home and when he arrived he had nothing. His clothes were so nasty they had to be thrown away. The Director of the home came to Good Samaritan to get clothes for this gentleman...Sad. He has no one to care for him...no family. I know You care for him...
So many people like that who have no one. So thankful for places like Bannister River Nursing Home who will take them and care for them even if they have no money. Glad we could get clothes for him...
Praying about tomorrow...more bad weather. Lord, I am so looking forward to spring. Thank you for today. I heard frogs and picked buttercups...just a few but it was enough to let me know spring is coming...
Goodnight Lord...

Good Morning Lord,
Starting another day in driving rain. Glad I picked some buttercups yesterday and thank you for those bright yellow harbingers of Spring.
Am praying for a productive day and that the snow misses us here in Southside Virginia tho I pray for those further north who are winter weary...and waiting for warn weather and sunshine. Praying that the flooding from the snow melt won't be so bad.
Praying for a friend who is traveling today...traveling north. Hoping he and his family have safe travels.
Praying again for my friend out on the coast whose husband died suddenly yesterday. My heart is broken for her. Please be with her and her family as they go thru the next few days.
Thank you for my children and be with them today as they go thru their day at work and school. I pray for my son and sister...I know they know you...I just pray they will commit to living as Christians...
Praying for my children's friend who is going thru such a hard time with depression. Know that battle well...hoping this battle will draw him to You.
I am praying all this in Jesus name...
Amen.

Thank you Lord that the storm was not so rough as first predicted. Just rain and cold. I have my buttercups where I can look up and see them.
Enjoyed my day. Got the car fixed. Took my daughter to lunch and went shopping...just looking.
Now the day is over...time to go read and go to bed.
Thank you for today...
Good night Lord.

Good morning Lord!
Sun is out and it is going to be a beautiful cold day...but nothing is falling from the sky...
A day at home...no where to go. Please help me to make it a useful day. Have plenty to do. Might have picked up a bug out in the rain and cold yesterday. I am praying it isn't so and if it is it is just a cold.
Haven't ventured into the news yet. Am praying it is also quiet...
Praying for my youngest cousin's children who are expecting their first baby...it was due yesterday...and we are waiting for that babies arrival.
Praying still for my friend Bob who recently had the stent and for my friend Bryan who lost her husband Wed. The funeral is today. Going to be a hard day for her.
As always praying for my children.
Praying for my church...we are still working towards a new Pastor. Not feeling real settled about it all...
Praying in Jesus Name,
Amen.

Good Morning Lord,
Beautiful day...sunshine and warmer. Thank you. Been fighting a "bug" of some kind. Praying it will just go away...
Got a couple of meetings...praying they will both be productive. Especially the meeting at church. Praying for my church and for my old Church. Both are without Pastors at present.
I still have the worry about a decision over my house. Man I would like to give me an estimate, because of the weather, hasn't been able to get out here to look at the chimney and the floor joist. Please let things hold till he can take a look. Help me to make a good decision. I don't know what to do. Said I would follow it and see where it goes.
I pray as always for my family as they go thru today. Pray for my children's friend who is having such a hard time...
Please Lord, forgive my sins. Help me to make this a productive day.
I pray in Jesus Name, Amen.

Good Morning Lord,
Feeling a little off this morning and so stayed home. Went to the Transition Team meeting last night and came away again feeling unsettled...and uneasy.
Don't know where it is off...and maybe it is me that is off. Praying for direction from You on this. It is beginning to weigh on my mind. Am trusting that each one of the 7 of us was hand picked by You to serve on this team...and I am going to run on faith that things are going where you intend for them to go.
Guide us...Lord.
Amen.

good morning Lord,
It is a beautiful day altho cooler. Been feeling rocky the past few days but better now. Seems I get this stuff every spring now. Change in weather.
Praying for the world Lord...while I was not well seems it moved on and not in good directions. Worried about race relations in this country. Spotlight seems to be on creating problems instead of solving them...people are going to get hurt. Praying that those in leadership will work to defuse the situation instead of stirring the pot and throwing wood on the fires...
Praying that instead the focus of the US will turn to ISIS and Iran and how to solve that problem...it is a huge threat to our country.
Also praying that Obama & Co. will cease and desist from pushing Israel away and vilifying her and Netanyahu...
I pray for a revival in our country...and not Josiah's variety tho he certainly tried...I am praying for a gut wrenching...soul tearing...sack cloth and ashes true revival...
I pray in Jesus Name, Amen.
