Opportunities

Dear Lord please be with us this day and may Your Holy Spirit please be guiding and protecting us in every thing that we say and do. Thank You for all of the great gifts and blessings and protection that You have given us and please forgive our sins the same as we forgive the mistakes of others.
Dear Lord please lead us into paths of peacemaking and problem solving on this day and may the problems that we encounter become opportunities to learn how to repair the broken operation of physical things as well as opportunities to become peacemakers and to serve others. In Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.
