Revelation 2:4

Revelation 2:4 But I have this against you, that you have abandoned the love you had at first.

From Rhetorical Jesus: "I think God wants us to live with an urgent expectancy that He could return at any second."

I have not been keeping up with the "renewing of the mind" that the Bible talks about. Lord Jesus, Lee has closed himself off from me. I pray for You to soften his heart, and mine, too. I love him. Help me to love him more.

I pray that he will go to the psychiatrist and that Dr. Hunter will not be too old and stodgy, but will relate. I pray for their meeting, that he will be the one to help Lee. The one You use to help Lee, I mean.

I've been praying for his healing. I am shooting into the dark, but it's my latest idea, and I'm sinful and helpless. I can only pray and do what I think is the next right thing. Lord Jesus, please take my filthy-rag efforts and heal Lee through them.

I pray that he would believe that I love him, and that he would stop having negative thoughts. I pray that he would have more energy and enthusiasm. I pray for spiritual joy. I pray these things for myself, too.

If You returned today, you will find me as I am, sinful, filthy, selfish. I turn myself over to You, I am at Your mercy. Please change me.

I pray for Dad, whose mood was so volatile in France, it made me not want to be around him. I pray for Mom, who's getting older. Strengthen them both please Lord!

I pray for our day at the water park today with Melanie and her boys. I pray for traveling safety and for edifying, joyful conversation.

Amen
