traveling mercies

Why do you call me, Lord, and do not do what I say?

Luke 6:46

Lord Jesus,

I desperately need Your help to walk with You and do what You say. I pray that You will remind me when I forget, which is often, to treat others as I would want to be treated.

Today I have to drive Lily to her dress rehearsal for her recital. I pray for a smooth and easy ride to the Ferst Center at Georgia Tech. I pray that the rain will hold off, or that it will be light. I pray that You would go with us and keep us safe from accidents. I pray that I would remain calm while I drive, and that the way would be clear and easy. I pray that You will help me, and that I will feel Your presence.

I pray for protection over my children. Thank you for protecting them this weekend at their respective camping/sleepovers. Thank you for a wonderful time with Lee. I praise You for Your provision and Your love over me. Thank you thank you.

I pray for the next chapter of my book, Chapter 11. And I pray that the book will take shape and move into the shape You want for it.

You are in charge of everything. You have power over everyone and everything. I pray that You will fill me with Your spirit to help others, that You would use me as Your instrument today.

In Your precious name I pray,

Amen
