Prayer for Those With Alzheimer's

Dear Father,
My prayer is for all who bear the crosses of Alzheimer's and other dementias. Society values the intellect so much that it forgets to value the whole person. May God bring strength and joy into the lives of people who suffer from these devastating diseases.

Prayer for focus

Keep My Mind Focused on Good Health


O Lord, I find it hard to remember what it was like
to be healthy.
Help me keep my mind focused on good health
and strength.
Let me be positive about the course of treatment
I am undergoing.
And let me always have faith, great faith,
in your presence in my life
and your glory in my health.

Prayer for a Summer Day

Long warm days...
The pace of life slows...
A time for picnics and rest in the shade...

Lord,
help me to rest a while in the cooling shade of your presence.
Slow down my restless heart and fill me with gentle compassion for all your people.
Amen.

Families Torn by Addiction

We pray, O God of hope,
for all families
whose lives are torn and disrupted
by drugs and alcohol.
Enable them to identify the illness.
Strengthen them to seek help.
Bless them with the power of your love,
which imparts transformation and wholeness
to those who trust in your name.
Grant that as they walk this tortured road,
they may journey together
and bound close in the bond of love.
Amen.

God's Love

Loving God,
there are times in each life
when there is no one.
No one with whom to share
a word,
a laugh,
a sad remembrance,
a gentle touch,
a fond embrace,
a kiss of love.
Bless each one who suffers
from such loneliness.
Enrich life with a friend
or gentle stranger
who will spend a moment
noticing
and loving.
In those times
your love shines through,
the world is reborn,
and Christ is known.
So be it!
Amen.and amen

Hurt?

A major problem in the church today is people living their lives with hidden hurts inside. These hurts are sealed up in nice little bags that cause us to look okay in public. However, when we open this baggage to our friends, it stinks!

Have you ever stopped to think that most people don’t want to hear about your hurts? Yes, there are problems in our lives that can hurt us, but they can only hurt us if we receive the hurt. John 10:10 says that the thief is a destroyer. He wants to destroy you. He is relentless and he shows no mercy. If he can’t destroy you with attacks from the outside, then he will attempt to destroy you from the inside. He does this by bringing hurts and offenses your way and tempting you to bring them inside. You can stop this cycle by not receiving them into yourself.

The choice is yours. Will you rehearse the hurt or will you confess the victory? What you say is what you’ll get. Instead of saying, "I’m so hurt," say "I’m set free!"
Thanbk you Father, For taking away the hurts for me life!

oh, God

O God, you will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are fixed on you; for in returning and rest we shall be saved; in quietness and trust shall be our strength.


- Isaiah 26:3; 30:15

A HEBREW SAGE MIGHT SAY. . .
GOD hides Himself in His manifestations and shows Himself in His concealments.
