Fear of Reprisal


Dear Lord please be with us this day and please may Your Holy Spirit be guiding and protecting us in every thing that we say and do. Thank You for all of the great gifts and blessings that You give us and please forgive our sins the same as we forgive the mistakes of others.
Dear Lord please lead us into the comfort of security and away from the fear of reprisal or of being corrected and over burdened as we mix and mingle with Your Children in Your Creation as we seek Your Kingdom, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.
