Today I pray

To my Heavenly Father,

Today I find much on my heart and in my mind.  First, there is so much pain in the lives of people I know.  So many are suffering from illness, specifically cancer.  Lord, I ask that you will surround them with your love and comfort.  If healing is in order, help them to be patient for the cure.  For those who are facing a terminal illness I pray you will also surround them and their loved ones with your love.  Give them courage and put them at peace that you are with them always and will carry them through the difficult days ahead.

Also Lord, I continue to look to you for guidance as I discern your call for me.  I am inpatient in waiting for your plan to be revealed to me.  Reveal to me what it is you want me to do and give me the courage to follow your call.  May I be a good steward of your gifts and use them to glorify you in all I do.  Calm my anxiety as I continue to seek and listen and work towards my purpose.  Keep me actively engaged in your ministry and help me to boldly proclaim your love and the words of salvation which we receive through the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross.

Thank you always for the blessings you have given me and keep me humble in my service to you.  I pray all of these things in the name of Jesus my savior.  Amen
