The Thought Of Our Destiny


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 and the 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 where we will feel that we are doing Your Will as we make progress in the things which are of little importance as we mix and mingle with Your Children in Your Creation while seeking Your Kingdom in this world of only the serious thoughts that are in mixtures of pain and anguish as we can only let Your Will be done as the time is ready while we leave our safety to Your Happenstance as we live in this world of Your Choices and the outcomes branded by the thoughts of those who are not always qualified to to make such serious decisions, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.
