Good morning Abba Father. Today is a day to shine in your prescense. Father you gave me life so that I may work for you and give it to others.
Father, feeling exhausted at times drives anger and feelings of guilt and shame. Father I pray for those around me going into these last weeks before budgets. Father I have been short, I have been unsupportive in my efforts to secure that which has been laid before me.
Focus, Father to sit and write my prayer to you is as much to make my mind wander. Why is it so hard to focus. Why is it so hard to harbor one thought and not many thoughts at once. What can I do to stop such a thing. What can I do to help my focus. Is it quiet time, is it meditation, is it practice at sitting quietly and allowing the thoughts to dominate until they have run their course. Father tell me if you will.

Father touch my boys, Justus and Michael, touch my unborn child. Keep them in your clutches forever. Father you are the great and the all mighty.

Father touch Stephanie. Break me down and make me the husband that can give to her as she needs. Direction, counsel, support, affection, love, care, understanding, etc... You and only you are the gift giver. Help me to be the bearer of fine gifts.

I invite you into my day Father and pray that you will lead in bright paths. Be with me during the two tough conversations I have to have with Wendy Melanie and John. Thank you father for the chances to grow.

Amen
