PRAYER

Discussed by Terry Lowry
with Host of the What's UP Radio Program

In the hustle and bustle of life, let’s quiet our hearts and approach the throne room of our Redeemer, our Sustainer, and our Provider.

Father God,

Thank you for your thoughts towards your children throughout this day.

May all we do be in the center of your will. Plant our feet on the path that leads to heaven.

Dry the tears of those who grieve. Grant comfort to those who are hurting.

Forgive us for our missteps as we forgive others.

Place your protecting hands over your children.

Hear our pleas for guidance.

We lift up family members and friends that may be wandering far from you.

Father, open their eyes to see you.

Lord Jesus, open their hearts to receive you.

Holy Spirit, fill them.

May the harvest be abundant today.

And if we are granted tomorrow, let’s repeat.

Be with us until the end of the age as we continue to serve.

For we pray in and through the name of Jesus Christ,

Amen.
