    Breakfast Prayer


    Father, we thank thee for the night,
    And for the pleasant morning light.
    For rest and food and loving care,
    And all that makes the day so fair.
    Help us to do the thing we should,
    To be to others kind and good,
    In all we do, in all we say,
    To grow more loving every day.


    - Rebecca J. Weston


    Thomas Merton from Thoughts in Solitude

    My Lord God,
    I have no idea where I am going,
    I do not see the road ahead of me.
    I cannot know for certain where it will end.
    Nor do I really know my self,
    and the fact that I think I am following your will
    does not mean I am actually doing so.

    But I believe that the desire to please you
    does in fact please you.
    And I hope that I have that desire in all that I am doing.
    I hope that I will never do anything apart from that desire.
    And I know that if I do this you will lead me by the
    right road though I may know nothing about it.

    Therefore will I trust you always
    though I may seem to be lost
    and in the shadow of death.
    I will not fear, for you are ever with me,
    and you will never leave me
    to face my perils alone.


    [i In Happy moments, praise God.
    In Difficult moments, seek God.
    In Quiet moments, worship God.
    In Painful moments, trust God.
    And in Every moment, thank God. This was sent to me by way of email....xoxo,Patti

    When you awaken in the morning and see the brightness of
    the morning sun,
    Lock the door on yesterday and throw away the key.
    For God has given you a brand new day,
    Another day of love and laughter.
    Seize each moment before it flies away,
    For sweeter than the fragrant flower is each precious golden hour.
    Make today your best day,
    The power is yours alone.
    Make today the happiest and the best you've ever known.
    Yesterday is gone, as in a dream,
    Tomorrow is a vision still unseen.
    Today is yours to live,
    It's treasures you can use.
    It can be your best day,
    It's up to you to choose!
    ~*~Author Unknown~*~


    I call upon you, O Lord,
    and in the morning you hear me.
    In the morning I offer
    you my prayer,
    watching and waiting.
    I lift my heart to you, O Lord,
    to be strengthened for this day.
    Be with me in all I do, my God;
    guide me in all my ways.

    I will carry some burdens today;
    some trials will be mine.
    So I wait for your help, Lord,
    lest I stumble and fall.

    I will do my work, Father,
    the work begun by your Son.
    He lives in me and I in him;
    may his work today be done.
    Amen.



    This prayer was printed on a card...xoxo,Patti

    Special prayers for MJ today ...Praying for negative test results...Lord watch over our sister today...

    I AM
    I was regretting the past and fearing the future.
    Suddenly my Lord was speaking,
    "My name is I AM"

    He paused, I waited. He continued,
    "When you live in the past
    with its mistakes and regrets, it's hard.
    I AM not there.
    My name is not I WAS".

    "When you live in the future
    with it's problems and fears, it's hard.
    I AM not there.
    My name is not I WILL BE."

    "When you live in this moment,
    it is not hard.
    I AM here.
    My name is I AM."

    As you read these words, please join in prayer.......
    Pray along as you read and if you feel inclined leave a prayer of your own today on this thread......
    Praying for peace,light,hope,health and happiness..Praying for patience,wisdom,and healing..Giving thanks to all that is good and for all of our good fortune's..Help us see our good fortune Lord ..May we always have enough enthusiasm to look forward,
    Enough faith to banish depression,
    Enough determination to make each
    day better than yesterday.
    This we pray in your name.............

    Father, I ask you to bless my friends reading this right now. I am
    asking You to minister to their spirit at this very moment.
    Where there is pain, give them Your peace and mercy.
    Where there is self doubting,
    release a renewed confidence in Your ability to work through them.
    Where there is tiredness, or exhaustion,
    I ask You to give them understanding, patience,
    and strength as they learn submission to your leading.
    Where there is spiritual stagnation,
    I ask You to renew them by revealing Your nearness,
    and by drawing them into greater intimacy with You.
    Where there is fear, reveal Your love, and release to them Your courage..Where there is pain grant relief..xoxo,Patti

    Hope begins in the dark, the stubborn hope that if you just show up and try to do the right thing, the dawn will come. You wait and watch and work: you don't give up.

    Let your heart guide you. It whispers, so listen closely.
    From the Land Before Time


    Almighty God, the Refuge of all that are distressed, grant unto us that, in all trouble of this our mortal life, we may flee to the knowledge of Thy lovingkindness and tender mercy; that so, sheltering ourselves therein, the storms of life may pass over us, and not shake the peace of God that is within us. Whatsoever this life may bring us, grant that it may never take from us the full faith that Thou art our Father. Grant us Thy light, that we may have life, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

    --- George Dawson

    Father, we thank thee for the night,
    And for the pleasant morning light.
    For rest and food and loving care,
    And all that makes the day so fair.
    Help us to do the thing we should,

    **************************

    With every breath I take today,
    I vow to be awake;

    And every step I take,
    I vow to take with a grateful heart--

    So I may see with eyes of love
    into the hearts of all I meet,

    To ease their burden when I can
    And touch them with a smile of peace.
    Buddhist


    I call upon you, O Lord,
    and in the morning you hear me.
    In the morning I offer
    you my prayer,
    watching and waiting.
    I lift my heart to you, O Lord,
    to be strengthened for this day.
    Be with me in all I do, my God;
    guide me in all my ways.

    I will carry some burdens today;
    some trials will be mine.
    So I wait for your help, Lord,
    lest I stumble and fall.

    I will do my work, Father,
    the work begun by your Son.
    He lives in me and I in him;
    may his work today be done.
    Amen.

    Mathew 15 ;27 Take courage..It is I...Do not be afraid..

    “Troubles surround me-too many to count! They pile up so high I can’t see my way out. They are more numerous than the hairs on my head. I have lost all my courage. Please, Lord, rescue me!” Psalm 40: 12-13. “He lifted me out of the pit of despair, out of the mud and the mire. He set my feet on solid ground and steadied me as I walked along.”

    Psalm 40:2



    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



    This prayer was written by Father Larry Hess when he was struggling with cancer..


    I call on you right now in a special way. It is through your power that I was created. Every breath I take, every morning I wake, and every moment of every hour, I live
    under your power.

    Father, I ask you now to touch me with that same power. For if you created me from nothing, you can certainly recreate me. Fill me with the healing power of your spirit.
    Cast out anything that should not be in me. Mend what
    is broken. Root out any unproductive cells. Open any
    blocked arteries or veins and rebuild any damaged areas.
    Remove all inflammation and cleanse any infection.

    Let the warmth of your healing love pass through my body
    to make new any unhealthy areas so that my body will
    function the way you created it to function.

    And Father, restore me to full health in mind and body so
    that I may serve you the rest of my life.

    I ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen


    Today's prayer's are for Pam the shop momma and her mom and NY Janet's SIL ,Hippie and her mom and Marissa and all of the women who frequent BC>Org and their families...Pam and her mom Jeanette ====Margaret....Kathy 2004 and her mom...***********NY Janet and her SIl

    "Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you.
    Not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let
    your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid--
    stop allowing yourself to be disturbed; and do not
    permit yourself to be fearful and unsettled."


    --John 14:27 (Amplified Bible)

    Dear Lord Father of all we pray....We pray for your blessing to start our day... .Please guide us and give us strength to face the challenges of today.. Comfort and renew us in our times of sorrow and despair........ Grant your grace and healing on us..Remind us that each new day is a fresh start regardless of how difficult the day before might have been.. Open our minds and our hearts and our whole being of awareness to your healing presence, as we seek ways to walk together on our journey through life... We pray for wisdom ,knowledge,patience,compassion and love to be part of our daily life...We pray for one another...........

    You are today where your thoughts have brought you; you will be tomorrow where your thoughts take you.

    James Allen



    Todays-- Quote Do not fear the winds of adversity. Remember: A kite rises against the wind rather than with it.
    A MORNING PRAYER-By E. Hardt
    Now I wake up from the night
    And thank the Lord for morning light.
    He'll be with me through the day,
    In my work and in my play,
    In the sunshine, in the rain,
    In His presence I remain.
    AMEN.
    Lord we give you thanks for our food today especially for our spiritual food...Without that we could not have fuel enough to face the day...xoxo,Patti
    Todays Quote ---Faith is the strength by which a shattered world shall emerge into the light. --Helen Keller

    GIVING THANKS FOR OUR FOOD. --E.Hardt
    God is great, and God is good.
    And we thank Him for our food.
    By His hand we all are fed,
    Give us, Lord, our daily bread.

    Take care of the minutes, for the hours will take care of themselves.





    I was so weary,
    so tired of the fight.
    I hadn't any strength left,
    I had no relief in sight.

    I could not continue on.
    The pain was to much to endure.
    Then I realized Jesus was there
    and in His hands, He held the cure.

    At my lowest valley
    He met me there,
    so that through the darkness
    He could show me He cares.

    He holds my hand
    and guides me along.
    He gives me the strength
    to keep me strong.

    He puts a rainbow at the end
    of the tunnel just in sight
    so that through the dark shadows
    I could see His shining light.

    Sonnett to Morning

    Let me unwrap the gift of this new day
    And view its contents as an innocent
    child
    Accepts the world: with eyes that see
    the way
    To sun beyond dark clouds, where
    skies are mild;
    With voice that lifts in prayer, as birds
    praise dawn;
    With hands that touch each miracle, in
    awe
    Of budding leaves or flowers on a lawn
    Or furry friends with hoof and horn
    and paw.
    Lead me along a path where I will find
    In all the precious hour that stretch
    before,
    The chance to help, to listen, to be kind;
    To heal the wounds that make the
    world heartsore.
    Oh, let me fill each second so that I
    May greet the day with a appreciative
    eye...Sheila Forsyth

    Each friend represents a world in us , a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born. Author Anais Nin.

    I wish you all a peaceful evening.Love and warm thoughts.MJB

    Aroused by light that softly
    permeates my mind,
    I sit up secretly to offer You my prayer.
    Words that tremble in the air,
    thoughts said in the mind in silence,
    reach the regions where You hear.
    As I breathe in, as I breathe out,
    I find the place where You are near,
    smiling in my silence.

    And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory...Mark 13:26

    Dear Lord, Good Shepherd, You heal the sick and the needy. I give you all those parts of our body which have suffered from illness. You know what it is like to endure pain. Look kindly on us today and heal us. Restore us to strenght of soul and body. Give Your gift of wisdom to our physicians that he/she may may be guided by the Holy Spirit in all he/she does. Bless our nurses so that their hands will become Your hands as they touch us. Bless, too, ourmedication. O Jesus, grant us all Your healing grace of love and peace. AMEN

Please, Lord, rescue me!” Psalm 40: 12-13. “He lifted me out of the pit of despair, out of the mud and the mire. He set my feet on solid ground and steadied me as I walked along.”

    Psalm 40:2

    This prayer was written by Father Larry Hess when he was struggling with cancer..


    I call on you right now in a special way. It is through your power that I was created. Every breath I take, every morning I wake, and every moment of every hour, I live
    under your power.

    Father, I ask you now to touch me with that same power. For if you created me from nothing, you can certainly recreate me. Fill me with the healing power of your spirit.
    Cast out anything that should not be in me. Mend what
    is broken. Root out any unproductive cells. Open any
    blocked arteries or veins and rebuild any damaged areas.
    Remove all inflammation and cleanse any infection.

    Let the warmth of your healing love pass through my body
    to make new any unhealthy areas so that my body will
    function the way you created it to function.

    And Father, restore me to full health in mind and body so
    that I may serve you the rest of my life.

    I ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen

    A MORNING PRAYER-By E. Hardt
    Now I wake up from the night
    And thank the Lord for morning light.
    He'll be with me through the day,
    In my work and in my play,
    In the sunshine, in the rain,
    In His presence I remain.
    AMEN.
    Lord we give you thanks for our food today especially for our spiritual food...Without that we could not have fuel enough to face the day...xoxo,Patti
    Todays Quote ---Faith is the strength by which a shattered world shall emerge into the light. --Helen Keller

    GIVING THANKS FOR OUR FOOD. --E.Hardt
    God is great, and God is good.
    And we thank Him for our food.
    By His hand we all are fed,
    Give us, Lord, our daily bread.

    Take care of the minutes, for the hours will take care of themselves.





    I was so weary,
    so tired of the fight.
    I hadn't any strength left,
    I had no relief in sight.

    I could not continue on.
    The pain was to much to endure.
    Then I realized Jesus was there
    and in His hands, He held the cure.

    At my lowest valley
    He met me there,
    so that through the darkness
    He could show me He cares.

    He holds my hand
    and guides me along.
    He gives me the strength
    to keep me strong.

    He puts a rainbow at the end
    of the tunnel just in sight
    so that through the dark shadows
    I could see His shining light.

    ::Traditional Sioux Prayer::

    I come before thee as one of thy many
    children. See, I am small and weak; I need
    thy strength and wisdom.
    Grant me to walk in beauty and that my eyes
    may ever behold the crimson sunset. May
    my hands treat with respect the things
    which thou has created, may my ears hear
    thy voice!
    Make me wise that I may understand the
    things which thou hast taught my people,
    which thou hast hidden in every leaf and
    every rock.
    I long for strength, not in order that I may
    overreach my brother, but to fight my
    greatest enemy -- myself.
    Make me ever ready to come to thee with pure
    hands and candid eyes, so that my spirit,
    when life disappears like the setting sun,
    may stand unashamed before thee.

    I will join in this every morning. Not sure if men are welcome here but I was searching for something to help me better serve my wife as we wait to get test results. After many days and nights of research I have decided that even if the results are negative, both she and I will be involved with BC in some way. My prayers go out to all...

    Traditional Sioux Prayer



    I come before thee as one of thy many

    children. See, I am small and weak; I need

    thy strength and wisdom.



    Grant me to walk in beauty and that my eyes

    may ever behold the crimson sunset. May

    my hands treat with respect the things

    which thou has created, may my ears hear

    thy voice!



    Make me wise that I may understand the

    things which thou hast taught my people,

    which thou hast hidden in every leaf and

    every rock.



    I long for strength, not in order that I may

    overreach my brother, but to fight my

    greatest enemy -- myself.



    Make me ever ready to come to thee with pure

    hands and candid eyes, so that my spirit,

    when life disappears like the setting sun,

    may stand unashamed before thee.







    Oh God of peace, who hast taught us that in returning and rest we shall be saved, in quietness and in confidence shall be our strength:

    By the might of thy Spirit lift us, we pray thee, to thy presence, where we may be still and know that thou art God. . .

    Prayer for Quiet Confidence from the Episcopal Book of Common Prayer









    O God, we are one with you. You have made us one with you. You have taught us that if we are open to one another, you dwell in us. Help us to preserve this openness and to fight for it with all our hearts. Help us to realize that there can be no understanding where there is mutual rejection. O God, in accepting one another wholeheartedly, fully, completely, we accept you, and we thank you, and we adore you, and we love you with our whole being, because our being is your being, our spirit is rooted in your spirit. Fill us then with love, and let us be bound together with love as we go our diverse ways, united in this one spirit which makes you present in the world, and which makes you witness to the ultimate reality that is love. Love has overcome. Love is victorious.

    Thomas Merton 1915-1968







    The Light of God before me.

    The Light of God behind me.

    The Light of God above me.

    The Light of God beside me.

    The Light of God within me.

    From the Prayer of St. Patrick



    /b]



    Lord Jesus,

    grant that I and my spouse may have a true

    and understanding love for each other.

    Grant that we may both

    be filled with faith and trust.

    Give us the grace to live

    with each other in peace and harmony.

    May we always bear with one another's weaknesses

    and grow from each other's strengths.

    help us to forgive one another's failings

    and grant us patience, kindness, cheerfulness

    and the spirit of placing the well-being

    of one another ahead of self.



    May the love that brought us together

    grow and mature with each passing year.

    Bring us both ever closer to You

    through our love for each other.

    Let our love grow to perfection.



    Amen.

    Christian Prayer



    Recharge Prayer--Ruth Bell Graham

    Lord when my soul is weary and my heart is tired and sore,

    and I have that failing feeling that I cant take anymore then let me know the freshening found in simple child like prayer..when the kneeling sould knows surely that a listening God is there...



    Mathew 15 ;27 Take courage..It is I...Do not be afraid..



    Our hope in difficult times is not based on positive thinking...wishful thinking...or natural optimism.....It is a certainty based on the truths that God is in complete control of our universe and he loves us.....Excerpt from the purpose driven life





    From the inside of a Greeting Card.....May you find hope in knowing that the LORD is in control of your life and is tenderly taking care of you....May you find rest in His GREAT UNENDING LOVE FOR YOU>>>>>



    God comforts us in our troubles so that we can comfort others..When others are troubled we will be able to give them the same comfort God had given us..CORR>>NLT 1:4 ..



    Dear Lord, We place ourselves in your care today..In Your loving arms and sacred heart... Please ease our

    doubts, deepen our faith and trust, calm our fears, touch

    our aches and pains,heal our hearts,

    hang onto us

    and restore our insight and help us to place our trust

    in you everday..xoxo,Patti

Please, Lord, rescue me!” Psalm 40: 12-13. “He lifted me out of the pit of despair, out of the mud and the mire. He set my feet on solid ground and steadied me as I walked along.”

    ::Traditional Sioux Prayer::



    I come before thee as one of thy many

    children. See, I am small and weak; I need

    thy strength and wisdom.

    Grant me to walk in beauty and that my eyes

    may ever behold the crimson sunset. May

    my hands treat with respect the things

    which thou has created, may my ears hear

    thy voice!

    Make me wise that I may understand the

    things which thou hast taught my people,

    which thou hast hidden in every leaf and

    every rock.

    I long for strength, not in order that I may

    overreach my brother, but to fight my

    greatest enemy -- myself.

    Make me ever ready to come to thee with pure

    hands and candid eyes, so that my spirit,

    when life disappears like the setting sun,

    may stand unashamed before thee.

    Prayer for Protection--James Dillet Freeman

    The Light of God surrounds Us
    The Love of God enfolds Us
    The Power of God protects Us
    and the Presence of God watches over Us
    Where ever we are God is! And all is well!
    Amen.


    Do you need Me ?
    I am there.

    You cannot see Me, yet I am the light you see by.
    You cannot hear Me, yet I speak through your voice.
    You cannot feel Me, yet I am the power at work in your hands.

    I am at work, though you do not understand My ways.
    I am at work, though you do not understand My works.
    I am not strange visions. I am not mysteries.

    Only in absolute stillness, beyond self, can you know Me
    as I AM, and then but as a feeling and a faith.

    Yet I am here. Yet I hear. Yet I answer.
    When you need ME, I am there.
    Even if you deny Me, I am there.
    Even when you feel most alone, I am there.
    Even in your fears, I am there.
    Even in your pain, I am there.

    I am there when you pray and when you do not pray.
    I am in you, and you are in Me.
    Only in your mind can you feel separate from Me, for
    only in your mind are the mists of "yours" and "mine".
    Yet only with your mind can you know Me and experience Me.

    Empty your heart of empty fears.
    When you get yourself out of the way, I am there.
    You can of yourself do nothing, but I can do all.
    And I AM in all.

    Though you may not see the good, good is there, for
    I am there. I am there because I have to be, because I AM.

    Only in Me does the world have meaning; only out of Me does the world take form; only because of ME does the world go forward.
    I am the law on which the movement of the stars and the growth of living cells are founded.

    I am the love that is the law's fulfilling. I am assurance.
    I am peace. I am oneness. I am the law that you can live by.
    I am the love that you can cling to. I am your assurance.
    I am your peace. I am ONE with you. I am.

    Though you fail to find ME, I do not fail you.
    Though your faith in Me is unsure, My faith in you never
    wavers, because I know you, because I love you.

    Beloved, I AM there.

    James Dillet Freeman




    O God, we are one with you. You have made us one with you. You have taught us that if we are open to one another, you dwell in us. Help us to preserve this openness and to fight for it with all our hearts. Help us to realize that there can be no understanding where there is mutual rejection. O God, in accepting one another wholeheartedly, fully, completely, we accept you, and we thank you, and we adore you, and we love you with our whole being, because our being is your being, our spirit is rooted in your spirit. Fill us then with love, and let us be bound together with love as we go our diverse ways, united in this one spirit which makes you present in the world, and which makes you witness to the ultimate reality that is love. Love has overcome. Love is victorious.
    Thomas Merton 1915-1968



    The Light of God before me.
    The Light of God behind me.
    The Light of God above me.
    The Light of God beside me.
    The Light of God within me.
    From the Prayer of St. Patrick

    /b]

    Lord Jesus,
    grant that I and my spouse may have a true
    and understanding love for each other.
    Grant that we may both
    be filled with faith and trust.
    Give us the grace to live
    with each other in peace and harmony.
    May we always bear with one another's weaknesses
    and grow from each other's strengths.
    help us to forgive one another's failings
    and grant us patience, kindness, cheerfulness
    and the spirit of placing the well-being
    of one another ahead of self.

    May the love that brought us together
    grow and mature with each passing year.
    Bring us both ever closer to You
    through our love for each other.
    Let our love grow to perfection.

    Amen.
    Christian Prayer

    Recharge Prayer--Ruth Bell Graham
    Lord when my soul is weary and my heart is tired and sore,
    and I have that failing feeling that I cant take anymore then let me know the freshening found in simple child like prayer..when the kneeling sould knows surely that a listening God is there...

    Mathew 15 ;27 Take courage..It is I...Do not be afraid..

    Our hope in difficult times is not based on positive thinking...wishful thinking...or natural optimism.....It is a certainty based on the truths that God is in complete control of our universe and he loves us.....Excerpt from the purpose driven life


    From the inside of a Greeting Card.....May you find hope in knowing that the LORD is in control of your life and is tenderly taking care of you....May you find rest in His GREAT UNENDING LOVE FOR YOU>>>>>

    God comforts us in our troubles so that we can comfort others..When others are troubled we will be able to give them the same comfort God had given us..CORR>>NLT 1:4 ..

    Dear Lord, We place ourselves in your care today..In Your loving arms and sacred heart... Please ease our
    doubts, deepen our faith and trust, calm our fears, touch
    our aches and pains,heal our hearts,
    hang onto us
    and restore our insight and help us to place our trust
    in you everday..xoxo,Patti

    “Troubles surround me-too many to count! They pile up so high I can’t see my way out. They are more numerous than the hairs on my head. I have lost all my courage. Please, Lord, rescue me!” Psalm 40: 12-13. “He lifted me out of the pit of despair, out of the mud and the mire. He set my feet on solid ground and steadied me as I walked along.”

    Psalm 40:2



    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



    This prayer was written by Father Larry Hess when he was struggling with cancer..


    I call on you right now in a special way. It is through your power that I was created. Every breath I take, every morning I wake, and every moment of every hour, I live
    under your power.

    Father, I ask you now to touch me with that same power. For if you created me from nothing, you can certainly recreate me. Fill me with the healing power of your spirit.
    Cast out anything that should not be in me. Mend what
    is broken. Root out any unproductive cells. Open any
    blocked arteries or veins and rebuild any damaged areas.
    Remove all inflammation and cleanse any infection.

    Let the warmth of your healing love pass through my body
    to make new any unhealthy areas so that my body will
    function the way you created it to function.

    And Father, restore me to full health in mind and body so
    that I may serve you the rest of my life.

    I ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen

    "Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you.
    Not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let
    your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid--
    stop allowing yourself to be disturbed; and do not
    permit yourself to be fearful and unsettled."


    --John 14:27 (Amplified Bible)

    Dear Lord Father of all we pray....We pray for your blessing to start our day... .Please guide us and give us strength to face the challenges of today.. Comfort and renew us in our times of sorrow and despair........ Grant your grace and healing on us..Remind us that each new day is a fresh start regardless of how difficult the day before might have been.. Open our minds and our hearts and our whole being of awareness to your healing presence, as we seek ways to walk together on our journey through life... We pray for wisdom ,knowledge,patience,compassion and love to be part of our daily life...We pray for one another...........

    You are today where your thoughts have brought you; you will be tomorrow where your thoughts take you.

    Todays-- Quote Do not fear the winds of adversity. Remember: A kite rises against the wind rather than with it.
    A MORNING PRAYER-By E. Hardt
    Now I wake up from the night
    And thank the Lord for morning light.
    He'll be with me through the day,
    In my work and in my play,
    In the sunshine, in the rain,
    In His presence I remain.
    AMEN.
    Lord we give you thanks for our food today especially for our spiritual food...Without that we could not have fuel enough to face the day...xoxo,Patti
    Todays Quote ---Faith is the strength by which a shattered world shall emerge into the light. --Helen Keller

    GIVING THANKS FOR OUR FOOD. --E.Hardt
    God is great, and God is good.
    And we thank Him for our food.
    By His hand we all are fed,
    Give us, Lord, our daily bread.

    Take care of the minutes, for the hours will take care of themselves.





    I was so weary,
    so tired of the fight.
    I hadn't any strength left,
    I had no relief in sight.

    I could not continue on.
    The pain was to much to endure.
    Then I realized Jesus was there
    and in His hands, He held the cure.

    At my lowest valley
    He met me there,
    so that through the darkness
    He could show me He cares.

    He holds my hand
    and guides me along.
    He gives me the strength
    to keep me strong.

    He puts a rainbow at the end
    of the tunnel just in sight
    so that through the dark shadows
    I could see His shining light.

    Religions are different roads converging upon the same point.
    What does it matter that we take different roads
    so long as we reach the same goal.

    Mahatma Gandhi



    For all that has been—Thanks.
    To all that shall be—Yes.
    To say Yes to life is at one and the same time
    to say Yes to oneself.
    Yes—even to the element in one which is most unwilling
    to let itself be transformed from a temptation into a strength.
    To be free, to be able to stand up and
    leave everything behind—without looking back.
    To say Yes.

    — Dag Hammarskjord

    It is better to light a candle than curse the darkness.
    Lights of peace become circles of peace.
    Circles of peace become communities of peace.
    Communities of peace become a peaceful world community."
    Bob Stewart

    Mother Teresa
    There is more hunger for love and appreciation in this world than for bread.




    I am the Pattern-Maker.

    I, God, made a world so infinite
    That there is nothing, if you try,
    That you may not make out of it.
    This is a wonder world;
    I wrought It out of nothing and My love,
    Yours to reshape it by your thought,
    Which is the stuff I made it of.
    Love is its secret inmost part,
    And you can think and you can feel
    And you are mind and you are heart.
    Child, only you and I are real.
    This world is what it is so you

    Can make it beautiful and true.

    James Dillet Freean



    “Jesus, help me to empty myself and admit my deep need to receive your unconditional love. My highest ambition is to be a fellow servant with you in the household of faith.”

    Sirach 36:1,4-5,10-17; Psalm 79:8-9,11,13


    Live simply,
    Laugh heartily and
    Love deeply

    ::Traditional Sioux Prayer::

    I come before thee as one of thy many
    children. See, I am small and weak; I need
    thy strength and wisdom.
    Grant me to walk in beauty and that my eyes
    may ever behold the crimson sunset. May
    my hands treat with respect the things
    which thou has created, may my ears hear
    thy voice!
    Make me wise that I may understand the
    things which thou hast taught my people,
    which thou hast hidden in every leaf and
    every rock.
    I long for strength, not in order that I may
    overreach my brother, but to fight my
    greatest enemy -- myself.
    Make me ever ready to come to thee with pure
    hands and candid eyes, so that my spirit,
    when life disappears like the setting sun,
    may stand unashamed before thee.

    Nancylee thank you so much...I had a wonderful birthday...Bless you ...

    Prayer is not an old woman's idle amusement. Properly understood and applied, it is the most potent instrument of action.
    - Mahatma Gandhi


    Prayer by John Mcloud-Dear Father
    Dear Father thank you for this day
    The wonder I can't hide
    The glow of true belonging
    That I feel so warm inside,
    For patience when I stray
    From pathway true, and then somehow
    The gift of sight to see beyond
    The darker clouds of now.

    Dear Father, thank you for this day
    Your presence ever near
    The colours and the splendour
    Of all living things that cheer,
    The joy of safe arrival
    In completing Living's vow,
    The gift of sight to see beyond
    The darker clouds of now.

    Dear Father, thank you for this day
    And all that I have earned
    From travelling's rich experience
    Wise lessons slowly learned,
    To rest at evensong
    And know your blessings still endow
    The gift of sight to see beyond
    The darker clouds of now!
    *******************************

    Father, bless my family and friends in whatever it is that You know
    they may be needing this day! And may their life be full of your
    peace, prosperity and power as they seek to have a closer
    relationship with you.
    Amen.....xoxo,Patti

    Love wholeheartedly, be surprised, give thanks and praise- - then you will discover the fullness of your life.

    - Brother David Steindl- Rast







    Here are the two best prayers I know: 'Help me, help me, help me' and 'Thank you, thank you, thank you.'

    - Anne Lamott









    Waking up this morning, I smile.



    Twenty-four brand new hours are before me.



    I vow to live fully in each moment



    and to look at all beings with eyes of compassion.Thich Nhat Hanh







    You have brought me into life as into an enchanted paradise. We have seen the sky like a chalice of deepest blue, where in the azure heights the birds are singing. We have listened to the soothing murmur of the forest and the melodious music of the streams. We have tasted fruit of fine flavor and the sweet-scented honey. We can live very well on Your earth. It is a pleasure to be Your guest.

    Glory to You for the Feast Day of life.

    Glory to You for the perfume of lilies and roses.

    Glory to You for each different taste of berry and fruit.

    Glory to You for the sparkling silver of early morning dew.

    Glory to You for the joy of dawn's awakening.

    Glory to You for the new life each day brings.

    Glory to You, O God, from age to age.



    by Gregory Petrov

    ::Traditional Sioux Prayer::



    I come before thee as one of thy many

    children. See, I am small and weak; I need

    thy strength and wisdom.

    Grant me to walk in beauty and that my eyes

    may ever behold the crimson sunset. May

    my hands treat with respect the things

    which thou has created, may my ears hear

    thy voice!

    Make me wise that I may understand the

    things which thou hast taught my people,

    which thou hast hidden in every leaf and

    every rock.

    I long for strength, not in order that I may

    overreach my brother, but to fight my

    greatest enemy -- myself.

    Make me ever ready to come to thee with pure

    hands and candid eyes, so that my spirit,

    when life disappears like the setting sun,

    may stand unashamed before thee.

    My heart and soul soared as I searched this site. I truely rejoiced that God guided me here and I praise him and that all of you who are contributing. I, too, will join in the morning prayer... a little time delayed here on the west coast but none the less. I have savored each and every word that I read here. There is no doubt in my mind that God's hand is amoung those who come to read, share and pray.

    There has been a calmness surrounding my dx that fills me daily and I know that God is with me and is with you. As sad as I am about what will be happening in the next weeks, months, etc, I firmly beleive that God is working in my life and that there will be good coming from this event. God is in control and I will praise him daily for all the blessings he has given me.

    My prayer is for all who are suffering from pain, depressing, and loss. Pray that surgeons, doctors and nurses are guided by God in each and everything they do to administer to those under their care. Pary that families are strengthened through these events and are brought closer as they rest in God's promises.

    Thank you for a beautiful day, family and friends. And in the days ahead for all the people here.

    Thank you Lord Jesus and in his Holy Name we rejoice.

    Welcome Ideclaire..Thank you for your beautiful post...Please post with me...I loved your prayer....xoxo,Patti

    Most merciful God,
    bless all who have suffered trauma
    in their lives.
    Support them with love
    during their time of shock.
    Grace them with peace
    as they wrestle with the challenges
    of each day.
    Sustain them in hope
    as they prepare for the days ahead.
    Amen.


    Vienna Cobb Anderson |

    Bless, O God,
    all who struggle with cancer.
    Empower them with hope
    for each and every day.
    Provide them with loving
    and tender care, laughter,
    and the support of love.
    Grant them
    courage when they are afraid,
    comfort when they are in pain,
    and your blessing
    when all else seems hopeless,
    that in their fight with illness
    they may continue to praise you
    and glorify your name.
    Amen.

    Vienna Cobb Anderson

    The little plans I tried to carry
    Have failed
    O' Dear God.
    But, I will not sorrow
    I will pause a little while
    And try again tomorrow.
    Anushree Karnani


    Father, bless my family and friends in whatever it is that You know
    they may be needing this day! And may their life be full of your
    peace, prosperity and power as they seek to have a closer
    relationship with you.
    Amen.....xoxo,Patti

    Lord, we thank Thee for this place in which we dwell;
    For the love that unites us;
    For the peace accorded us this day;
    For the hope with which we expect the morrow;
    For the health,the work,the food,
    And the bright skies that make our lives delightful;
    For our friends in all parts of the earth.

    O Heavenly Father, we ask for your help for alll the sisters and brothers on this web site,who so desperately need your help. Watch with us,we pray thee,over these servants for whom our prayers are offered, and grant that they may be restored to that perfect health which it is thine alone to give;through Jeasus Christ out Lord.Amen

    Almighty God,giver of health and healing: Grant to these thy servants such a sense of thy presence that they may have perfect trust in thee. In all their suffering may they cast their care upon thee,so that, enfolded in thy love and power,they may receive from thee health and salvation according to thy gracious will ; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

    I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me......Phillippians 4:13

    Praying that God will fill your day with His own peace and the assurance of a quick recovery.

    When I'm in pain, I forget that you care about me.
    I forget that you have helped me through my trials.
    I forget that you hold me in your arms to keep me safe.
    I forget that you are feeling my pain with me.
    I forget that you love me,
    I forget that I am important to you.
    Show me your presence - let me feel your enveloping love.
    Heal my hurting soul.
    Thank you for staying with me .

    Love and warm thoughts.MJB

    Here are the two best prayers I know: 'Help me, help me, help me' and 'Thank you, thank you, thank you.'

    - Anne Lamott





    Eternal God,

    Creator of years, of centuries,

    Lord of whatever is beyond time,

    Maker of all species and master of all history --

    How shall we speak to you

    from our smallness and inconsequence?

    Except that you have called us to worship you

    in spirit and in truth;

    You have dignified us with loves and loyalties;

    You have lifted us up with your loving kindnesses.

    Therefore we are bold to come before you without groveling

    [though we sometimes feel that low]

    and without fear

    [though we are often anxious].

    We sing with spirit and pray with courage

    because you have dignified us;

    You have redeemed us from the aimlessness

    of things' going meaninglessly well.

    God, lift the hearts of those

    for whom this holiday is not just diversion,

    but painful memory and continued deprivation.

    Bless those whose dear ones have died

    needlessly, wastefully [as it seems]

    in accident or misadventure.

    We remember with compassion those who have died

    serving their countries

    in the futility of combat.

    There is none of us but must come to bereavement and separation,

    when all the answers we are offered

    fail the question death asks of each of us.

    We believe that you will provide for us

    as others have been provided with the fulfillment of

    "Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted."

    I forget that you have helped me through my trials.

    I forget that you hold me in your arms to keep me safe.

    I forget that you are feeling my pain with me.

    I forget that you love me,

    I forget that I am important to you.

    God's eloquent flags,
    royal purple and
    ruffled violet, stand tall
    in the springtime
    breeze
    demonstrating
    our Creator's magnificence
    and care.

    Breathe in the fragrance
    and beauty
    of our King,
    knowing His banner
    over us
    is love.
    - Nancy Spiegelberg

    Scripture Inside

    He brought me to the banqueting house,
    and his banner over me was love
    [for love waved as a protecting and
    comforting banner over my head
    when I was near him].
    Song of Solomon 4:5
    Amplified Bible

    From a greeting card...



    Rudyard Kipling wisely said: "Keep your mind about you
    while all others are losing theirs."

    Surround Me With Your Light
    Surround me with your light, Jesus, and penetrate the very depths of my being with that light. Let there remain no areas of darkness in me or in my family members, but transform our whole being with the healing light of your love. Open me completely to receive your love, Jesus. Thank you for being our family healer and my personal healer.

    I saw a quote once that stated "We might not have been born sisters or brothers but the Lord has allowed us to become that close".... Love to all .......xoxo,Patti



    For Times of Fear
    Almighty God, the Refuge of all that are distressed, grant unto us that, in all trouble of this our mortal life, we may flee to the knowledge of Thy lovingkindness and tender mercy; that so, sheltering ourselves therein, the storms of life may pass over us, and not shake the peace of God that is within us. Whatsoever this life may bring us, grant that it may never take from us the full faith that Thou art our Father. Grant us Thy light, that we may have life, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
    - George Dawson



    Lord, Settle My Soul
    O Lord, this is all my desire -- to walk along the path of life that Thou hast appointed me, even as Jesus my Lord would walk along it, in steadfastness of faith, in meekness of spirit, in lowliness of heart, in gentleness of love. And because outward events have so much power in scattering my thoughts and disturbing the inward peace in which alone the voice of Thy spirit is heard, do Thou, gracious Lord, calm and settle my soul by that subduing power which alone can bring all thoughts and desires of the heart into captivity to Thyself. All I have is Thine; do Thou with all as seems best to Thy divine will; for I know not what is best. Let not the cares or duties of this life press on me too heavily; but lighten my burden, that I may follow Thy way in quietness, filled with thankfulness for Thy mercy, and rendering acceptable service unto Thee.
    - Maria Hare (1798-1870)



    Surround me with your light, Jesus, and penetrate the very depths of my being with that light. Let there remain no areas of darkness in me or in my family members, but transform our whole being with the healing light of your love. Open me completely to receive your love, Jesus.

    Our special thoughts and prayers are with Lu and Lori and Phil Sr...xoox,Patti

    O Lord, this is all my desire -- to walk along the path of life that Thou hast appointed me, even as Jesus my Lord would walk along it, in steadfastness of faith, in meekness of spirit, in lowliness of heart, in gentleness of love. And because outward events have so much power in scattering my thoughts and disturbing the inward peace in which alone the voice of Thy spirit is heard, do Thou, gracious Lord, calm and settle my soul by that subduing power which alone can bring all thoughts and desires of the heart into captivity to Thyself. All I have is Thine; do Thou with all as seems best to Thy divine will; for I know not what is best. Let not the cares or duties of this life press on me too heavily; but lighten my burden, that I may follow Thy way in quietness, filled with thankfulness for Thy mercy, and rendering acceptable service unto Thee.
    - Maria Hare (1798-1870)

    God, make me brave for life: oh, braver than this.
    Let me straighten after pain, as a tree straightens after the rain,
    Shining and lovely again.
    God, make me brave for life; much braver than this.
    As the blown grass lifts, let me rise
    From sorrow with quiet eyes,
    Knowing Thy way is wise.
    God, make me brave, life brings
    Such blinding things.
    Help me to keep my sight;
    Help me to see aright
    That out of dark comes light.
    - Author Unknown



    Surround me with your light, Jesus, and penetrate the very depths of my being with that light. Let there remain no areas of darkness in me or in my family members, but transform our whole being with the healing light of your love. Open me completely to receive your love, Jesus. Thank you for being our family healer and my personal healer.
    - Author Unknown


    I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me......Phillippians 4:13

    Praying that God will fill your day with His own peace and the assurance of a quick recovery.

    When I'm in pain, I forget that you care about me.
    I forget that you have helped me through my trials.
    I forget that you hold me in your arms to keep me safe.
    I forget that you are feeling my pain with me.
    I forget that you love me,
    I forget that I am important to you.
    Show me your presence - let me feel your enveloping love.
    Heal my hurting soul.
    Thank you for staying with me .

    Love,peace and great light to all..xoxo,Patti

    I saw a quote once that stated "We might not have been born sisters or brothers but the Lord has allowed us to become that close".... Love to all .......xoxo,Patti



    Almighty God, the Refuge of all that are distressed, grant unto us that, in all trouble of this our mortal life, we may flee to the knowledge of Thy lovingkindness and tender mercy; that so, sheltering ourselves therein, the storms of life may pass over us, and not shake the peace of God that is within us. Whatsoever this life may bring us, grant that it may never take from us the full faith that Thou art our Father. Grant us Thy light, that we may have life, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

    If only I could see today,
    In everyone that comes my way,
    A child of God,though dimly drawn,
    Then no one, Lord,would be a pawn
    To use in any scheme of mine,
    However grand, or warped design...

    If only,passing on the street,
    In every stranger I may meet...
    The businessman who rushes by,
    The homeless one, with downcast eye,
    The mother with the child in tow,
    The rowdy kids that laughing go,
    The actress with her haughty look,
    The student with his bag and book...

    A child of Thine, I could discern,
    The heart in me,oh Lord,would burn
    To look on each with kind regard,
    And not with looks indifferent,hard.
    In each,if only I might see
    The essence of humanity
    And godliness,through blurred the grace;
    For all that breathe reflect God's face.
    O,let me see with clearer eye---
    A child of God just walked on by...William Deerfield

    May the Great Mystery make sunrise in your heart.

    Special prayers go out to anyone having surgery,chemo,tests,waiting for test results,newly diagnosed,having a rough day,and feeling just down and out.I would like to invite any person new to our community looking for specials prayers for yourself , family or friends to lets us know , please .

    Love and warm thoughts.MJB

    May today there be peace within.

    May you trust your highest power that you are exactly where you are meant to be....

    May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of
    faith.

    May you use those gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you....

    May you be content knowing you are a child of God....

    Let this presence settle into our bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for each and every one of you....We pray for the following:

    Faith
    Serenity
    Strength
    Courage
    Hope
    Peace of Mind
    Healing....


    [i Surround me with your light, Jesus, and penetrate the very depths of my being with that light.

    Almighty God, the Refuge of all that are distressed, grant unto us that, in all trouble of this our mortal life, we may flee to the knowledge of Thy lovingkindness and tender mercy; that so, sheltering ourselves therein, the storms of life may pass over us, and not shake the peace of God that is within us. Whatsoever this life may bring us, grant that it may never take from us the full faith that Thou art our Father. Grant us Thy light, that we may have life, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

    Today let me touch the Earth

    with gentle hands

    and build anew.



    Tomorrow let me remember

    that all that I have built

    belongs to Earth alone.



    And always

    let me ask for no other blessing

    than the one that God has already

    given me:

    TO BE...Daniel Roselle



    Please protect our friend LuAnn dear Lord and grant her peace, strength and courage to fight her way back to health .



    May God protect you LuAnn and all the brave men and women fighting this beast. Lord, we ask that you surround these brave people with guardian angels and bring them all comfort and peace of mind . We all pray for them in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen



    Love and warm thoughts. MJB

    Lord in heaven,
    please listen to all those
    who are praying to you now.

    Those who are sad and crying,
    those who have lost friends and family.

    Those who are alone
    and frightened.

    Help them to remember,
    that you are there
    and you are listening.

    In Jesus' name, we pray.
    Amen.
    Christian Prayer

    I raise my hands in honor of the Lord of the morning,
    who rises in glory in the east of the world.
    Piercer of darkness, illumine my path as I go through my day.
    Way-shower, illumine my path as I go through my life.

    You have created us to live in community,
    O God of love;
    bless our friends who provide us
    with the grace and love of an extended family.
    Endow them with the riches of your blessings:
    good health, sight, and mobility,
    that they may enjoy the wonders of your creation
    and share their delight with others.
    Bless them with keen minds and compassionate hearts
    that they may create a better life for all.
    Guard them from injustice, oppression, and evil
    that they may know freedom and hope lifelong.
    In their waking and in their sleeping,
    in their laughter and in their tears,
    surround them with your love
    until the end of their days;
    and so bring them to eternal life in peace.
    Through Jesus Christ, our Savior.
    Amen.

    For flowers that bloom about our feet,
    For tender grass, so fresh, so sweet,
    For song of bird, and hum of bee,
    For all things fair we hear or see,
    Father in heaven, we thank Thee!

    For blue of stream and blue of sky,
    For pleasant shade of branches high,
    For fragrant air and cooling breeze,
    For beauty of the blooming trees,
    Father in heaven, we thank Thee!

    May today there be peace within.

    May you trust your highest power that you are exactly where you are meant to be....

    May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of
    faith.

    May you use those gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you....

    May you be content knowing you are a child of God....

    Let this presence settle into our bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for each and every one of you....We pray for the following:

    Faith
    Serenity
    Strength
    Courage
    Hope
    Peace of Mind
    Healing....

    [i Surround me with your light, Jesus, and penetrate the very depths of my being with that light. Let there remain no areas of darkness in me or in my family members, but transform our whole being with the healing light of your love. Open me completely to receive your love, Jesus. Thank you for being our family healer and my personal healer.

    [b~ The Tide Will Turn ~

    When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you,

    until it seems as though you cannot hang on a minute longer,

    never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.



    Harriet Stowe

    Dear Lord thank you for guiding me to this board and to the true heroes in my life..I have learned so much here...Much about life,ups and downs,strength,courage,love ,healing,laughter and friendship...God bless all of you here on the boards....Patti



    Bless, O God,

    all who struggle with cancer.

    Empower them with hope

    for each and every day.

    Provide them with loving

    and tender care, laughter,

    and the support of love.

    Grant them

    courage when they are afraid,

    comfort when they are in pain,

    and your blessing

    when all else seems hopeless,

    that in their fight with illness

    they may continue to praise you

    and glorify your name.

    Amen.

    Almighty God, the Refuge of all that are distressed, grant unto us that, in all trouble of this our mortal life, we may flee to the knowledge of Thy lovingkindness and tender mercy; that so, sheltering ourselves therein, the storms of life may pass over us, and not shake the peace of God that is within us. Whatsoever this life may bring us, grant that it may never take from us the full faith that Thou art our Father. Grant us Thy light, that we may have life, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

    "Moment by moment, I center myself in the presence of infinite peace. "

    ````from the Word




    Do not keep the alabaster box of your love & friendship sealed up until your friends are dead. Fill their lives with sweetness. Speak approving, cheering words while their ears can hear them, and while their hearts can be thrilled and made happier. The kind things you mean to say when they are gone, say before they go."

    George William Childs



    Dream big. Love large.

    Live with gratitude.

    Do the right thing.

    Practice angel-like ways.

    Plant honest gardens.

    Let your light shine.

    Write The Word on your heart.

    Celebrate the wonder all around you.

    Share your blessings.

    Be a living prayer in the world.

    From an email I recieved a long time ago...




    Just close your eyes and open your heart,

    And feel your worries and cares depart.

    Just yield yourself to the Father above,

    And let Him hold you secure in His love.





    For life on earth grows more involved,

    With endless problems that can't be solved.

    But God only asks us to do our best,

    Then He will take over and finish the rest.





    So when you are tired, discourage and blue,

    There is always one door that is open to you.

    And that is the door to The House of Prayer,

    And you'll find God waiting to meet you there.





    And The House of Prayer is no further away,

    Than the quiet spot where you kneel and pray.

    For the heart is a temple when God is there,

    As we place ourselves in His loving care.





    And He hears every prayer and answers each one,

    When we Pray in His name - Thy will be done.

    The burdens that seemed too heavy to bear,

    Are lifted away on the wings of a prayer.

    ~ Author Unknown ~



    Please teach me, Lord ...

    I want to know

    Exactly how to pray.

    I need some words

    Which ones are right?

    Please tell me what to say.

    I've bowed my head

    I have knelt down,

    But ... should I be upright?

    I've closed my eyes,

    I've raised my hands,

    Or ... should I fold them tight?



    Do I stand up?

    Should I sit down?

    Dear Lord ... what do you like?

    Are lights turned on Or are they off?

    Maybe ... candle light?



    Wear my glasses?

    Take them off?

    Be at my desk or table?

    Should I whisper?

    Speak out loud?

    Do I quote the Bible?



    What do you think

    About the time?

    Do You prefer the dawn?

    Should I pray fast,

    Or keep it slow?

    Better short ... or long?



    I'm new at this

    What are the rules?

    I want to do it right.

    How do I know

    You'll even hear

    That I am in Your sight?



    And while I sat there quietly, Waiting for some sign, I heard a gentle voice say:



    "Oh, dearest child of mine ...

    Do you think I really care about the time of day,

    Or whether you are standing up,

    Or kneeling when you pray?"



    "I don't care about your posture,

    Or about the place you choose;

    Just open up your soul to me,

    I have no other rules.

    Tell me what is in your heart,

    And tell me what you seek;

    Tell me of your sorrows,

    And of those things that made you weak."



    "Speak to me in private

    About what concerns you most;

    I know about your good deeds ...

    You have no need to boast.

    My child, you don't need lessons,

    Just talk to me each day.

    Tell me anything you want, dear child,

    Anyone can pray."





    May the light of the Lord guide you and keep you safe...xoxo,Patti

    [b~ The Tide Will Turn ~

    When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you,

    until it seems as though you cannot hang on a minute longer,

    never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.



    Harriet Stowe

    Dear Lord thank you for guiding me to this board and to the true heroes in my life..I have learned so much here...Much about life,ups and downs,strength,courage,love ,healing,laughter and friendship...God bless all of you here on the boards....Patti



    Bless, O God,

    all who struggle with cancer.

    Empower them with hope

    for each and every day.

    Provide them with loving

    and tender care, laughter,

    and the support of love.

    Grant them

    courage when they are afraid,

    comfort when they are in pain,

    and your blessing

    when all else seems hopeless,

    that in their fight with illness

    they may continue to praise you

    and glorify your name.

    Amen.

    Lord in heaven,

    please listen to all those

    who are praying to you now.



    Those who are sad and crying,

    those who have lost friends and family.



    Those who are alone

    and frightened.



    Help them to remember,

    that you are there

    and you are listening.



    In Jesus' name, we pray.

    Amen.

    Christian Prayer

    I raise my hands in honor of the Lord of the morning,

    who rises in glory in the east of the world.

    Piercer of darkness, illumine my path as I go through my day.

    Way-shower, illumine my path as I go through my life.

    - Ceisiwr



    You have created us to live in community,

    O God of love;

    bless our friends who provide us

    with the grace and love of an extended family.

    Endow them with the riches of your blessings:

    good health, sight, and mobility,

    that they may enjoy the wonders of your creation

    and share their delight with others.

    Bless them with keen minds and compassionate hearts

    that they may create a better life for all.

    Guard them from injustice, oppression, and evil

    that they may know freedom and hope lifelong.

    In their waking and in their sleeping,

    in their laughter and in their tears,

    surround them with your love

    until the end of their days;

    and so bring them to eternal life in peace.

    Through Jesus Christ, our Savior.

    Amen.

    For flowers that bloom about our feet,

    For tender grass, so fresh, so sweet,

    For song of bird, and hum of bee,

    For all things fair we hear or see,

    Father in heaven, we thank Thee!



    For blue of stream and blue of sky,

    For pleasant shade of branches high,

    For fragrant air and cooling breeze,

    For beauty of the blooming trees,

    Father in heaven, we thank Thee!





    - Ralph Waldo Emerson





    May today there be peace within.



    May you trust your highest power that you are exactly where you are meant to be....



    May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of

    faith.



    May you use those gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you....



    May you be content knowing you are a child of God....



    Let this presence settle into our bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for each and every one of you....We pray for the following:



    Faith

    Serenity

    Strength

    Courage

    Hope

    Peace of Mind

    Healing....



    [i Surround me with your light, Jesus, and penetrate the very depths of my being with that light. Let there remain no areas of darkness in me or in my family members, but transform our whole being with the healing light of your love. Open me completely to receive your love, Jesus. Thank you for being our family healer and my personal healer.

    I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me......Phillippians 4:13



    Praying that God will fill your day with His own peace and the assurance of a quick recovery.



    When I'm in pain, I forget that you care about me.

    I forget that you have helped me through my trials.

    I forget that you hold me in your arms to keep me safe.

    I forget that you are feeling my pain with me.

    I forget that you love me,

    I forget that I am important to you.

    Show me your presence - let me feel your enveloping love.

    Heal my hurting soul.

    Thank you for staying with me .



    Love,peace and great light to all..xoxo,Patti
