John 15:1


Jesus, I praise you as the True Vine, my source of all spiritual power and eternal fruitfulness. (15:1) 

I got the notes from Katharine. Thank You, Lord. Now I can move forward. But only in Your strength. Please Lord don't let me forget You. I need You desperately. I need to stay with the Vine.

I pray that You will fill me with ideas and creative energy to forge on and make the book into the story You want it to be.

I pray for Lee, for his physical health, for his emotional health. I pray for his restlessness, that You would bring him peace. 

I ask...to know You better. To not just be talking to You but to hear You communicating with me and to feel Your love for me. 

In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen

Psalm 5:3

In the morning, O LORD, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait in expectation. — Psalm 5:3


My last morning with the sweet, precious, lovely children in the Young 3's class! I am so grateful for them and loved them. Lord, thank You. I pray that each one will grow to know You and to walk with You through their lives. 

I pray the same for my own, sweet, wonderful Isabel and Lily. That Your hand would always be on them, and never let them go. 

I pray that all the negative thoughts that bombard me at Leaders Circle will recede as I focus on You and You alone. I want to surrender, to lay down my own will and follow Yours. Please show me the way!

I pray for each child today:

Joshua, Peyton, Victor, Charlie, Ryder, Israel, Elizabeth, Savannah, London, Katie, Holly, and Hannah. 

They are Your children. I pray that I might joyfully I serve You by caring for them one more time. Thank You!!!!!

I pray for Lee, that You will bless him at work and heal him spiritually, physically, emotionally and restore his self-esteem. Please show me my part in that.

In Your son's name I pray,

Amen
