Father, may I have the strength to resist temptation and always walk in Your ways. Lord, Your ways are not grievous, but given to me to help and bless me. ' May I realize this, when you correct me and not rebel against Your restraints. Give me grace to overcome those things that are not pleasing in your sight and yield to your Holy Spirit.' I know there is no temptation that I face that You have not made a way for me to escape it and overcome it.' You are all powerful and I acknowledge my need for Your help in my time of trial. Thank you, for Your promise of protection and freedom from fear. I am glad you are a caring Father that loves me.' I ask these things in the name of Jesus, Amen.

Dear Lord, I come to you in the name of Jesus and thank you for giving me the Bible, your wonderful book, that is not only full of Your knowledge and wisdom, but is Your love letter to mankind.' All through this book is the plan of redemption. You show us how we, as mortals, can find a loving God who gave Jesus, His Son to die for us and redeem us from our sin and destruction. I am thankful that my name is written in the Book of Life. ' Lord, help me today to be a caring and loving person that reaches out to share the Bible's message with others. Give me understanding as I read the Bible, but most of all, give me the grace to obey the things that you have revealed to me in your Word. Amen.

Dear Father, I am grateful that you have left us the Bible with all of its wisdom and knowledge so that we do not get lost in this life or overwhelmed by the problems that we face.' I do thank you that for every problem we face, You will help me find the answer and overcome in the situation.' Help me not only be able to overcome my problems, but also Lord, help me to maintain the proper heart attitude as I work on the situations in my life that need changing.' I know that I must react to my problems with Your love and in a way that is pleasing to you.' Give me the grace to do that, as in my own strength I am not able to approach many of my problems with a godly attitude. In Jesus name, Amen.

Dear Father in Heaven, Thank you for your love and concern for me and the things that concern me. Lord, I was judged wrongly this week by someone I loved and befriended. Yes, it hurt, but I also hurt for them, as I see how they believed a lie of the devil, and now they no longer want this relationship.' Lord, though they were wrong, what do I need to learn from this experience' Lord, I confess I wanted to strongly justify and defend my position, not only to them, but to the other concerned parties also.' However, I know that I must leave this to You, as You are the righteous judge.' You know what really happened, and even if I spoke it in defense of my position, unless you revealed it to them they could not hear it anyway.' So, at this point, I shall leave this all to you to repair. I will simply voice the words that you give me to share in this situation. I know those words will be gracious, as You are gracious.' Thank you, that I will be able to' speak the truth in love,...
