Only take care, and keep your soul diligently, lest you forget the things that your eyes have seen, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life. Make them known to your children and your children’s children.   Deuteronomy 4:9


Lord,
I pray that You will keep my heart and focus towards You. I pray that throughout my day today I will desire to please You first and foremost. Yesterday I was at the pool and did a better job of honoring You by not getting into gossip with the hornets nest of gossipy women. I pray that You would continue to turn me towards You and keep me holy. I am certainly not all-the-way holy, but I want to walk every day, step by step with You. Please, please infuse me with Your spirit, because I'm not capable on my own.

I pray for the Girl Drama Solutions group I'm starting. I pray that this will be Your group, and that It will progress along Your terms. I pray for each girl who's going to come. I pray that You will work through me, because I'm nothing, less than nothing, without You. I am happy to be a shell as long as I know that You are the one filling me up. Lord, show me what You'd have me teach these girls.

I pray for my book. Lord, what will Chapter 11 look like? I feel like it's a crucial turning point and I'm not sure where I'm going. But You know. Lord, send me Your ideas. What do I write next? I want to glorify You with this book. That is my main goal. I am sinful and selfish, but I can pray for You to change me, and to use me. 

I pray for Lee's mood, and for his health. I pray for the situation with the worship band. It's Your band, and You know what You want for it. I pray that Lee will realize this, and that he will move forward prayerfully as he helps to shepherd the band members through this transition to a new leader.

I pray for our skit practice today, that the children will learn their parts. I pray that they will speak up slowly, loudly and clearly enunciating. I pray for Carter, that he will have confidence. I pray that we will all learn our lines quickly.

I pray for protection over my whole family.

In Your son's precious name I pray,

Amen
