Who to Trust

Help us to see Your Children from a correct point of view on this day and may we not let one incident, that could be taken wrong, be a point that we judge from when we evaluate our relationship with someone.

Choices
Dear Lord please be with us this day and may the Holy Spirit be walking with us as we travel the paths of this day through the valleys and high places of thought and deed, among Your children in a tiny speck of Your Creation. Dear Lord please help us with our choices and may our priorities not be seeking acceptance by others no matter what their priorities are, but to influence others to seek Your Kingdom and live by the golden rule. In Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.

Garden
Dear Lord please be with us this day and may the Holy Spirit be guiding us in every thought and deed all the day long.
