Common Needs

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 give us and please forgive our sins the same as we forgive the mistakes of others.
Dear Lord please lead us into paths of discovery on this day as we continue to seek Your Kingdom at the same time that we seek satisfaction and peace of mind among Your children when opportunities to help by deed or thought or encouragement or just by listening to their stories arise, as we discover that we all have pretty much the same needs.
Dear Lord please lead us not into the temptations of the worldly lusts for glory and power, and please protect us from thoughts of hate and greed, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen. 

KJV*
Mt 6:5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. 
Mt 6:6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. 
Mt 6:7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. 
Mt 6:8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.
