To See The Beautiful


Dear God,

When things seem to explode,
fill us with Your grace.

May the sadness we feel be
filled with Your presence.

Give us the patience to see the
beautiful in the middle of the explosion.

Thanks God.
Amen.

Hope - To Continue



Dear God,

As we travel life's road,
Help us to move past the
Charred and blackened parts.

Give us hope to continue
Around the next bend in the road.
Grant us the faith we need to hold on.

Watch over us during our journey.
Keep us safe from all harm.
Ease our pains, calm our fears.

In Christ's Name we pray.
Amen.

When shadows grow long in our lives,
Remind us to connect the little things.
