To Find Strength And Hope

 

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 further understanding and the wisdom that is there for us to discover as we mix and mingle with Your Children in Your Creation while seeking Your Kingdom among the temptations of this world as we struggle to find the strengths to continue on even in the face of evil and false thought and evil values away from hope, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.
