Dear Heavenly Father, I thank You for the joy that You have given me. I do not want to take the fruit of the Holy Spirit for granted. I am blessed to experience Your love, joy and peace, especially in the middle of my trials. Truly You give us peace that passes all understanding. Father, give me a continued love for Your Word and a desire to study it faithfully. I also need the grace to apply it in my daily life. Help all of Your people to esteem Your Word and honor You by keeping it. May we all declare as David did in  Psalm 119:11 , "Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee."  I ask in the name of the Lord, Jesus Christ. Amen.

Dear Heavenly Father, Thank You for Your promise of protection from the enemy. Thank You for the many times that I have been spared from the evil plans of the devil. I do appreciate Your angels watching over me and my loved ones. I am grateful that no weapon formed against me prospers. Lord, I submit to You, knowing that when I resist the enemy, he must flee from me. Thank You for answering me when I am in trouble and showing me the way out and how to overcome every problem that I face. Lord, help all of Your people to know the promise of Your power to keep us from harm. Strengthen our faith to trust You in all of our ways. Amen.

Dear Father God, I am so blessed to have You in my life. Thank You for loving me and giving me eternal life. Lord, I am also very grateful to have a wonderful, godly husband who is loving and kind. You have blessed us with a good family. We are thankful for loving children and grandchildren. We have also been blessed with many wonderful friendships over the years that have grown stronger today in the love of God. How blessed we are with kind, caring, friends that have demonstrated their love over and over again. Lord, help Bud and I to be the same kind of friends. Our family and friends are our true treasures in this life. Keep them all under Your hand of protection and bless them each. Bless the many people we have not met, but that pray for us and support this ministry. We are thankful for each of them and look forward to meeting them one day, if not in this life, in the life to come. I ask this in the name of the Lord Jesus. Amen.

Dear Father God, I am ever so grateful to have access to a reservoir of wisdom, counsel, and guidance in knowing You.

When I come to You asking for forgiveness of my sins, I can feel Your mighty power cleansing me. I do want You to correct me when I need it, as I do not want to get off of the path of holiness. Lord, use me to reach out to those around me with the same love You have shown me. Guide me today in the things that I should do. Sometimes I feel overwhelmed with so many things to do. I am trusting You to show me the things that are priority and give me the grace and strength to do them. May I be an instrument of Your love today. I ask this in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
