Sunday Prayer

Captain’s Log, Stardate 01.01.2006

HAPPY NEW YEAR! Let’s ring in the New Year with some prayer.

Anybody have prayer requests? Leave them in the comments and I’ll be praying this week. You don’t have to be Christian to leave a prayer request. If you’d rather not advertise to everyone on the blogosphere, just leave an unspoken prayer request.

Not to be mean or anything, but if you don't email me or comment to update your prayer request, I'm only going to pray 3 Sundays. I've got a couple fly-by prayer requests and a growing list.

Father, thank you for a new year, filled with promise and a chance to grow closer to you.

Thank you for bringing Squirl back safely from India. Please give her direction and purpose this coming year. Please heal her leg pain, Lord we ask for your miraculous touch on her body. Give her and her husband your peace and guidance as they deal with his mother.

Continue to cover Pammer with your love and peace as she jumps into the new year. Keep her car running and ease the pain in her tooth.

I pray Julie's lumps are benign--give wisdom to the doctors, and I pray for no delays or complications. Please heal her leg, shoulder and wrists, and help her husband's recovery go swiftly and smoothly. I pray against the spiritual warfare in her life, and ask you to cover her with your peace. Lift her spirits with an awareness of you watching over her.

Please give Heather the discipline, affirmation, and courage to do these books this year. Please also continue to protect her from spiritual warfare, and help her to fight Satan’s lies.
