Good morning Father

Father, at times it seems so improper to ask for your forgiveness. Especially on the heels of failing you yet again. Father, failures that are relative in nature to the failures of just a few writings ago.

Father, thank you for being the only God, the God of the mighty world. All things work for the glory of God you have said and I want to believe that such that fear of conflict flies right out the window.

Father, I have a need with a conversation collision course. I see a very difficult conversation on the horizon and need you. I need you everyday in my life but this day especially. Wendy is a strong character and I need to rein her in. I need to stand firm in my convictions and the signs that abound around me. I need to avoid the influence of others in the market place and go with my own gut feelings, the feelings and the convictions that you place upon me.

Father, thank you for the trip to Denver and back. Thank you for a good night sleep. Thank you for watching over and protecting my family.

May the honor and praise go to you on this day.

In Jesus name, Amen

Good moring Father

What a morning. We have managed to run the propane out and our house is freezing. Father I pray that I can get the tank filled today without delay.

Father as I read your word this morning a few things stuck out to me.

First, to be bold in my presentation of your truth. Be that with you, my family, my co-workers etc... Scary. Father you made me who I am and you know that I am not bold, I am weak and I am unsure most of the time. Perfect for you relative to the Gideon Story we heard in church yesterday. I pray for your touch and blessing of boldness.

Second, you are with me always never turning a blind eye. You are the very one that awards those who walk in your light and in your truth. I pray that I "Absolutely" belive that.

Thirdly, Truth must be backed by action: Father in all my studies and reading there is one theme that gets repeated over and over; ACTION. We must get in motion and stay in motion. Father bless me with wheels of motion.

Fourth, May I be a durable "Container" In the contrast of kitchen tools; garbage container and beautiful china I see the subtle difference. We are made to move your word. Trashcans and cups both serve a purpose, Father may I be the cup?

Lastly, be mature, gentle, and patient when presenting your word to unbelievers. Father bless me with that dispostion.

Touch our leaders (world and domestic), my family, and those I work with on this day. Amen

Father thank you for another day and another chance to walk in your ways. Thank you fro providing a book of procedure in your ways. Father you lay out the perfect way to live and it is up to the one your wrote it for to take advantage and make a life worthy of you. Father thank you too for all that you have done in my life to bring me to where I am. Thank you for Stephanie, Justus, Michael, and my family.

Father, I pray for a friend to come my way. I have found a friend in you and eagerly want a Father in you. Father you are my Father, you are my Abba Father. I pray that I seek your wisdom and your knowledge in my life's activities. Father you and only you can give me the tools to make my life a better life.

I pray for your blessing over my family. I pray a hedge of protection over me and my family.

Amen

Fathe you have it in you to wipe the planet clean of all sin and shortcomings yet you persist in holding out for your kingdom to spread the good news.

C Father thank you for my family and Father I pray that you would allow me to see and act on the things that would lead them best.

Father allow me the ability to be diplomatic without giving up who I am as a human being. Allow me to come into my own as a leader. Allow me to lead a team to the promised land. Allow me to influence this earthly team both up the chain and down to your promise. Give me the words and actions that will prompt the questions. Give me the courage to answer them with honesty and integrity. Father you know the things I should value, you know the things I have chosen to value, I pray that you would bless them or change them to the right things.

In Christ name, AMEN!

Good evening Father. Tonight is the night before what some call the most important election in recent history. The sane among us know that the most important election of our lifetime is the election to accept Jesus as our lord and savior.

With that in mind lord I call on you to mold me each day of my life. Father lead me to the well and I will drink. Father you mold me and I will make you proud. I know it is not a one way street and we live in a broken world. I am as broken as the next guy Father. However, Father I know that I am remarkable. I know that I have it in me to blow away the world and make a mark. Make a legacy that will last into the ages. Be that in a book, in a song, in a poem, in a testimony, in whatever endevour you present to me, I have it. It is you in me and this can and will be a break out year for me and for my family.

The hurdles will still be there and I will have to overcome, but I know I can do with you as my pilot. With you in the driver's seat. You control everything about my life and with you in control only successful things can happen.

In Christs Holy name. Amen
