week of 7/4/10


God of grace and love, the heat outside reminds us of the struggles we face day to day. We struggle to find some comfort and peace in the midst of our strife. We turn to you at the end of the road, seeking some answers. In times of prosperity and in times of struggle, we pray that you help us to know your will for our lives. Hear now our prayers:


I want work and God blessing and for a home. I don’t do drug at all. May God bless you always


Happy 4th

Peace Love and Understanding


I pray for a happy and safe 4th of July without any problems


Pray for the barber ministry that it will continue. Amen.


The Housing looks nice in --------- but I need something in --------- – is there someone here who I can talk about a room at the most.

Thank you, your brother in Christ


I think I want to spend the rest of my life with my girlfriend.

Be there God.


I pray for shelter from the heat


Please Lord be with those of us seeking a word from you desperately trying to understand where to go, how to move forward, feeling more anger than joy more disappointment than encouragement Can you replenish? Can you show the way…?


Dear G-D;

Please keep on watching my granddaughter, help me get out of this mess I got myself in.

Praise be to your name

Me


Good for all in Christ


Dear God,

I feel so far from you. I pray that this week (at BSM Youth initiative) I would be open to you. Draw me close.


That I can love myself, when others put me down

There seems to be a lot of ambiguity in my life.


I am broken. I feel like I’ve gone astray. I feel like a child in the face of the adult demands I’m facing – I cling to a false sense of control, I am living timidly. I pray for wholeness. For letting go, for strength to live a life of light in a world so often dark.


I hold up to God:

-My health

-The partnership for youth that I and others are working on

-My partner and my upcoming transition


Dear God,

Life is great. I love it. Thank you. But you’re not here. I feel like I frequently betray and reject you. And sometimes I don’t even feel guilty. But I want you in my life. Help me God.

Amen.


I don’t think I can ask for any more at this moment. I landed that job I wanted last week, I’m doing great in my running program and races, I have great friends and support and I should have a beautiful summer.


Oh Father,

Please be with me as I explore the true nature of your love and all of the ways in which you show it.


That deep down peace seems so elusive, Jesus.

Make me open so that I can receive and hold and give away your peace.

Spirit, bring Your healing to the myriad of names that I carry in my heart.


Praise God

God has blessed me and kept me safe. He is good, so good and I want to thank him for being good to me.


Well God, sooth me. I got myself in a bit of a funk today. Help. Thanks. P.S. I just thought ya know what. How can I help today?


I pray for cool weather with nice breezes. I pray for people to appear where I need them. I pray for patience and insight. I pray for love and guidance. I pray endlessly. Guide my steps, my words, my actions my everything.


Pray that I will build a life worth the effort of creating and sustaining. Pray that I will focus on the right things. Lord, I am nothing. Make in me something worth taking up space on this earth.


Pray for safe travels and good health for all of us on our ------- Mexico mission trip next week


Why do we as human not up with God and only his lifestyle words? Don’t live in lies Be no case.


Lord, we continually seek out your will. Our lives are full of ambiguity. You seem elusive at times. We feel lost. However, in the midst of it, we also feel your presence. We know you are guiding and supporting us. We know your love carries us on. Give us shelter and cool in the midst of the heat waves we face in our lives. Amen.
