Here is a prayer I stole from my Verse of the Day email:

Help me hear Jesus' voice through your Word. Help me hear his voice through the wise counsel of spiritual friends. Help me hear his voice through the words sung to be by my brothers and sisters when we are assembled. Help me hear his voice in the Holy Spirit's work on my conscience. Father, I want to follow your Son as my Shepherd and Lord because I know he, like you, is good!

Sara is weighing on me for some reason. I pray that I will be a better sister to her. 
I pray for Sara. Please bless her and bring her to Yourself.

The first four chapters of my novel are with Katherine. Lord, I pray for my own prayerful dependence on You. I am in Your thrall, and I depend on You for the way forward. I want to be a novelist, and my motives for that are both well meaning and selfish, as You know. But I want to be refined. I want to see Katherine's response in the light of You and Your plan for me. 

I pray for Dad, and for the concert with Tom Conlan this Friday, that all will go smoothly. I pray for peace between Dad and Lee. I pray for Your spirit to fill Mom and Dad's house while Tom sings.

I pray for Isabel's health and fitness, that we would find a way forward as her friend quits swimming.

Thank you for the beneficial conditions at BSF yesterday and allowing me to shine during story time. Of course this was about serving the children, but it was also a confidence boost for me, which I needed obviously.

I pray that you would help me through my doubts.

In Your son's name I pray,

Amen
