We pray that you provide us with whatever it is that we may be in need of today as we are not always aware of what that might be..May your light shine brightly upon us during our times of darkness and despair so that we can adjust our compass and get back to where we need to be...Teach us the value of our silent moments as it is then that we may connect with you through our inner voice.... ..........Please fill our hearts and souls with peace and trust so that we may have a closer relationship with you.. We pray for vision enough to see beyond our own needs..We pray for direction Dear Lord and pray that you will lead us towards a path of compassion for our fellow man/women..May we find ourselves on a road where we can give direction and help those in their time of need..In doing so we pray to be blessed with the enrichment of a full and satisfied heart..For it is the random act of compassion and kindness that fills one's heart with the best elixir one could ever seek....In closing Lord we pray for your healing hands and ask you to have mercy and compassion for anyone who is suffering with ailments that affect the body,spirit or mind....We ask that you extend your loving hand over any one in need who prays to you lord so that they may experience the miracle's of faith,hope and mercy and enjoy the pleasures of restored health... health.You have taught us that "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven"...We pray that this season will bring us to a place of self growth, awareness and most of all closer to you Lord...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.

    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.

    Dear Lord we look upon you this evening in thanks and ask that you journey with us.We seek your strength,patience,guidance and blessings.If we fall today please be near to guide us to our feet. If we become angry and frustrated ,please be near to calm our anxieties.If we are confused and in despair, please be there to aid us in our decision making process.And most of all please bestow upon us your many blessings. We seek your gentle touch of healing,not that just of the body
    Father but also that of the mind and soul.Amen

    Love and warm thoughts.MJB

    "Like the bee gathering honey from the different flowers,

    the wise person accepts the essence of the different

    scriptures and sees only the good in all religions."— Mahatma Gandhi







    This is the beginning of a new day.

    God has given me this day to use as I will. I can waste it, or use it for good, but what I do today is important because I am exchanging a day of my life for it.

    When tomorrow comes this day will be gone forever, leaving behind in its place something that I have traded for it. I want it to be a net gain and not loss, good and not evil, success and not failure, in order that I shall not regret the price that I have paid for it.

    Samuel F. Pugh



    Take my hand Dear Jesus-

    Guide me every day.

    Always stay close by me

    As I tread life's way.

    Make me kind and gentle,

    Loving,patient,true,

    Always treating others

    As you'd have me do.

    Take my hand Jesus,

    I am weak,You are strong.

    In the time of trouble,

    You are my hope,my song.

    You are the Son in daylight,

    You are the Son at night.

    Take my hand Dear Jesus,

    help me fight my fight...Author Unknown

    "Like the bee gathering honey from the different flowers,

    "Keep your faith in all beautiful things; in the sun when it is hidden, in the spring when it is gone."

    Roy R. Gilson



    This is such a beautiful prayer..A friend passed it along to me and I posted it a long time ago...Here it is again......
    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.

    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.

    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 we would be only too happen to help .

    This is another day, O Lord. I know not what it will bring forth, but make me ready, Lord, for whatever it may be. If I am to stand up, help me to stand bravely. If I am to sit still, help me to sit quietly. If I am to lie low, help me to do it patiently. And if I am to do nothing, let me do it gallantly. Make these words more than words, and give me the Spirit of Jesus. Amen.

    O God, the source of all health: So fill my heart with faith in your love, that with calm expectancy I may make room for your power to possess me, and gracefully accept your healing; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.



    Lord Jesus Christ, by your patience in suffering you hallowed earthly pain and gave us the example of obedience to your Father's will: Be near us in my time of weakness and pain; sustain us by your grace, that our strength and courage may not fail; heal us according to your will; and help us always to believe that what happens to us here is of little account if you hold us in eternal life, my Lord and my God. Amen.

    Everyday life is the Prayer:

    In the beginning was the Word.
    And the Word was with God.
    And the Word was God .
    Might I have a Word ?

    Love and warm thoughts.MJB

    "Like the bee gathering honey from the different flowers,
    the wise person accepts the essence of the different
    scriptures and sees only the good in all religions."— Mahatma Gandhi



    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



    Quote:
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    “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




    "Keep your faith in all beautiful things; in the sun when it is hidden, in the spring when it is gone."

    Roy R. Gilson



    This is such a beautiful prayer..A friend passed it along to me and I posted it a long time ago...Here it is again......
    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.

    This is the beginning of a new day.
    God has given me this day to use as I will. I can waste it, or use it for good, but what I do today is important because I am exchanging a day of my life for it.
    When tomorrow comes this day will be gone forever, leaving behind in its place something that I have traded for it. I want it to be a net gain and not loss, good and not evil, success and not failure, in order that I shall not regret the price that I have paid for it.
    Samuel F. Pugh

    Take my hand Dear Jesus-
    Guide me every day.
    Always stay close by me
    As I tread life's way.
    Make me kind and gentle,
    Loving,patient,true,
    Always treating others
    As you'd have me do.
    Take my hand Jesus,
    I am weak,You are strong.
    In the time of trouble,
    You are my hope,my song.
    You are the Son in daylight,
    You are the Son at night.
    Take my hand Dear Jesus,
    help me fight my fight...Author Unknown

    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.

    Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through

    the knowledge of God ```Peter 1:2





    And I pray that Christ will be more and more

    at home in your hearts as you trust in him.

    May your roots go down deep into the soil of

    God's marvelous love.



    And may you have the power to understand,

    as all God's people should,

    how wide, how long, how high,

    and how deep his love really is.



    May you experience the love of Christ,

    though it is so great

    you will never fully understand it.

    Then you will be filled with the fullness

    of life and power that comes from God.

    Oh, Lord, I thank you for the privilege and gift

    of living in a world filled with beauty and excitement

    and variety.



    I thank you for the gift of loving and being loved,

    for the friendliness and understanding and beauty

    of the animals on the farm and in the forest and marshes, for the green of the trees, the sound of the waterfall, the darting beauty of the trout in the brook.



    I thank you for the delights of music and children,

    of other people's thoughts and conversation

    and their books to read by the fireside or

    in bed with the rain falling on the roof

    or the snow blowing past outside the window.

    “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









    "Keep your faith in all beautiful things; in the sun when it is hidden, in the spring when it is gone."



    Roy R. Gilson







    This is such a beautiful prayer..A friend passed it along to me and I posted it a long time ago...Here it is again......

    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.

    This is the beginning of a new day.

    God has given me this day to use as I will. I can waste it, or use it for good, but what I do today is important because I am exchanging a day of my life for it.

    When tomorrow comes this day will be gone forever, leaving behind in its place something that I have traded for it. I want it to be a net gain and not loss, good and not evil, success and not failure, in order that I shall not regret the price that I have paid for it.

    Dear Lord we come here today with open hearts and minds..We thank you for our many blessings.. We thank you for setting our compass and leading the way to this board at a time when our vision was impaired and we needed an automatic pilot..... ...We are so thankful for the leadership of Dr. Weiss and her wonderful staff(Melissa thank you for keeping this board going)...Most of all Lord we are grateful for the company of women we have met here as Without them this would be a very lonely,frustrating,and dark journey... . We pray that you provide us with whatever it is that we may be in need of today as we are not always aware of what that might be..May your light shine brightly upon us during our times of darkness and despair so that we can adjust our compass and get back to where we need to be...Teach us the value of our silent moments as it is then that we may connect with you through our inner voice.... ..........Please fill our hearts and souls with peace and trust so that we may have a closer relationship with you.. We pray for vision enough to see beyond our own needs..We pray for direction Dear Lord and pray that you will lead us towards a path of compassion for our fellow man/women..May we find ourselves on a road where we can give direction and help those in their time of need..In doing so we pray to be blessed with the enrichment of a full and satisfied heart..For it is the random act of compassion and kindness that fills one's heart with the best elixir one could ever seek....In closing Lord we pray for your healing hands and ask you to have mercy and compassion for anyone who is suffering with ailments that affect the body,spirit or mind....We ask that you extend your loving hand over any one in need who prays to you lord so that they may experience the miracle's of faith,hope and mercy and enjoy the pleasures of restored health... health.You have taught us that "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven"...We pray that this season will bring us to a place of self growth, awareness and most of all closer to you Lord...Amen..

    Some thoughts...The value of persistent prayer is not that He will hear us . . . but that we will finally hear Him." -William McGill..

    Elbert Hubbard
    God will not look you over for medals, degrees, or diplomas, but for scars.

    Beauty is not in the face;
    beauty is a light in the heart.
    Roy Gilson


    May you be filled with loving kindness.
    May you be well.
    May you be peaceful and at ease.
    May you be happy.

    ancient - tibetan buddhist - blessing


    I thank Thee, Lord, for blessings, big and small;
    For spring's warm glow and songbird's welcome call;
    For autumn's hue and winter's white snow shawl.
    I thank Thee for the harvest rich with grain;
    For tall trees and the quiet shadowed lane;
    For rushing stream, for birds that love to fly;
    My country's land, the mountains and the plain.
    I thank Thee for each sunset in the sky.
    For sleepy nights, the bed in which I lie;
    A life of truth and peace; a woman's hand,
    Her hand in mine until the day I die.
    I thank Thee, Lord for all these things above;
    But most of all I thank Thee for Thy Love.


    Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through
    the knowledge of God ```Peter 1:2


    And I pray that Christ will be more and more
    at home in your hearts as you trust in him.
    May your roots go down deep into the soil of
    God's marvelous love.

    And may you have the power to understand,
    as all God's people should,
    how wide, how long, how high,
    and how deep his love really is.

    May you experience the love of Christ,
    though it is so great
    you will never fully understand it.
    Then you will be filled with the fullness
    of life and power that comes from God.

We pray that you provide us with whatever it is that we may be in need of today as we are not always aware of what that might be..May your light shine brightly upon us during our times of darkness and despair so that we can adjust our compass and get back to where we need to be...Teach us the value of our silent moments as it is then that we may connect with you through our inner voice.... ..........Please fill our hearts and souls with peace and trust so that we may have a closer relationship with you.. We pray for vision enough to see beyond our own needs..We pray for direction Dear Lord and pray that you will lead us towards a path of compassion for our fellow man/women..May we find ourselves on a road where we can give direction and help those in their time of need..In doing so we pray to be blessed with the enrichment of a full and satisfied heart..For it is the random act of compassion and kindness that fills one's heart with the best elixir one could ever seek....In closing Lord we pray for your healing hands and ask you to have mercy and compassion for anyone who is suffering with ailments that affect the body,spirit or mind....We ask that you extend your loving hand over any one in need who prays to you lord so that they may experience the miracle's of faith,hope and mercy and enjoy the pleasures of restored health... health.You have taught us that "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven"...We pray that this season will bring us to a place of self growth, awareness and most of all closer to you Lord...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.

    I thank Thee, Lord, for blessings, big and small;

    For spring's warm glow and songbird's welcome call;

    For autumn's hue and winter's white snow shawl.

    I thank Thee for the harvest rich with grain;

    For tall trees and the quiet shadowed lane;

    For rushing stream, for birds that love to fly;

    My country's land, the mountains and the plain.

    I thank Thee for each sunset in the sky.

    For sleepy nights, the bed in which I lie;

    A life of truth and peace; a woman's hand,

    Her hand in mine until the day I die.

    I thank Thee, Lord for all these things above;

    But most of all I thank Thee for Thy Love.





    Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through

    the knowledge of God ```Peter 1:2





    And I pray that Christ will be more and more

    at home in your hearts as you trust in him.

    May your roots go down deep into the soil of

    God's marvelous love.



    And may you have the power to understand,

    as all God's people should,

    how wide, how long, how high,

    and how deep his love really is.



    May you experience the love of Christ,

    though it is so great

    you will never fully understand it.

    Then you will be filled with the fullness

    of life and power that comes from God.

    Oh, Lord, I thank you for the privilege and gift

    of living in a world filled with beauty and excitement

    and variety.



    I thank you for the gift of loving and being loved,

    for the friendliness and understanding and beauty

    of the animals on the farm and in the forest and marshes, for the green of the trees, the sound of the waterfall, the darting beauty of the trout in the brook.



    I thank you for the delights of music and children,

    of other people's thoughts and conversation

    and their books to read by the fireside or

    in bed with the rain falling on the roof

    or the snow blowing past outside the window.

    Quote:

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



    “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









    "Keep your faith in all beautiful things; in the sun when it is hidden, in the spring when it is gone."



    Roy R. Gilson







    This is such a beautiful prayer..A friend passed it along to me and I posted it a long time ago...Here it is again......

    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 ~





    This is the beginning of a new day.

    God has given me this day to use as I will. I can waste it, or use it for good, but what I do today is important because I am exchanging a day of my life for it.

    When tomorrow comes this day will be gone forever, leaving behind in its place something that I have traded for it. I want it to be a net gain and not loss, good and not evil, success and not failure, in order that I shall not regret the price that I have paid for it.

    Samuel F. Pugh

    Take my hand Jesus,

    I am weak,You are strong.

    In the time of trouble,

    You are my hope,my song.

    You are the Son in daylight,

    You are the Son at night.

    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.

    Lord, behold our family here assembled.
    We thank you for this place in which we dwell,
    for the love that unites us,
    for the peace accorded to 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. Amen.

    --- Robert Louis Stevenson


    Lord God...

    Make me an instrument of Your healing.

    When I am weak and in pain, help me to rest.

    When I am anxious, help me to wait.

    When I am fearful, help me to trust.

    When I am lonely, help me to love

    And when I place You apart from me

    Help me to know You are near.


    Healing God...

    Grant me not so much

    To demand everything from myself

    As to let others help me;

    Not to expect others to cure me

    As to do my own part toward getting better.

    Grant me not so much to seek escape

    As to face myself...

    And learn the depths of Your love.

    For it is in being uncertain and not in control

    That we find true faith.

    In knowing the limits of mind and spirit

    And in passing through death

    That we find life that lasts forever.

    I thank Thee, Lord, for blessings, big and small;
    For spring's warm glow and songbird's welcome call;
    For autumn's hue and winter's white snow shawl.
    I thank Thee for the harvest rich with grain;
    For tall trees and the quiet shadowed lane;
    For rushing stream, for birds that love to fly;
    My country's land, the mountains and the plain.
    I thank Thee for each sunset in the sky.
    For sleepy nights, the bed in which I lie;
    A life of truth and peace; a woman's hand,
    Her hand in mine until the day I die.
    I thank Thee, Lord for all these things above;
    But most of all I thank Thee for Thy Love.


    Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through
    the knowledge of God ```Peter 1:2


    And I pray that Christ will be more and more
    at home in your hearts as you trust in him.
    May your roots go down deep into the soil of
    God's marvelous love.

    And may you have the power to understand,
    as all God's people should,
    how wide, how long, how high,
    and how deep his love really is.

    May you experience the love of Christ,
    though it is so great
    you will never fully understand it.
    Then you will be filled with the fullness
    of life and power that comes from God.

    Oh, Lord, I thank you for the privilege and gift
    of living in a world filled with beauty and excitement
    and variety.

    I thank you for the gift of loving and being loved,
    for the friendliness and understanding and beauty
    of the animals on the farm and in the forest and marshes, for the green of the trees, the sound of the waterfall, the darting beauty of the trout in the brook.

    I thank you for the delights of music and children,
    of other people's thoughts and conversation
    and their books to read by the fireside or
    in bed with the rain falling on the roof
    or the snow blowing past outside the window.

    Quote:
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    “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




    "Keep your faith in all beautiful things; in the sun when it is hidden, in the spring when it is gone."

    Roy R. Gilson



    This is such a beautiful prayer..A friend passed it along to me and I posted it a long time ago...Here it is again......
    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.

    This is the beginning of a new day.
    God has given me this day to use as I will. I can waste it, or use it for good, but what I do today is important because I am exchanging a day of my life for it.
    When tomorrow comes this day will be gone forever, leaving behind in its place something that I have traded for it. I want it to be a net gain and not loss, good and not evil, success and not failure, in order that I shall not regret the price that I have paid for it.
    Samuel F. Pugh

    Take my hand Dear Jesus-
    Guide me every day.
    Always stay close by me
    As I tread life's way.
    Make me kind and gentle,
    Loving,patient,true,
    Always treating others
    As you'd have me do.
    Take my hand Jesus,
    I am weak,You are strong.
    In the time of trouble,
    You are my hope,my song.
    You are the Son in daylight,
    You are the Son at night.
    Take my hand Dear Jesus,

    Give ear, O Eternal, to my prayer

    Heed my plea for mercy.

    When pain and fatigue are my companions

    Let there be room in my heart for strength.

    When days and nights are filled with darkness

    Let the light of courage find it's place.

    Help me to endure the suffering

    And dissolve the fear.

    Renew within me...

    The calm spirit of trust and peace.



    Psalm 86

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

    Give me the strength

    to meet each day with quiet will.



    Give me faith to know

    Thou art my Shepherd still.



    Give me the light

    to find my way when shadows fall.



    Be Thou my steady guiding star

    ...Father of all.



    Hebrew Union Home Prayer Book







    Lord, behold our family here assembled.

    We thank you for this place in which we dwell,

    for the love that unites us,

    for the peace accorded to 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. Amen.

    Lord God...



    Make me an instrument of Your healing.



    When I am weak and in pain, help me to rest.



    When I am anxious, help me to wait.



    When I am fearful, help me to trust.



    When I am lonely, help me to love



    And when I place You apart from me



    Help me to know You are near.





    Healing God...



    Grant me not so much



    To demand everything from myself



    As to let others help me;



    Not to expect others to cure me



    As to do my own part toward getting better.



    Grant me not so much to seek escape



    As to face myself...



    And learn the depths of Your love.



    For it is in being uncertain and not in control



    That we find true faith.



    In knowing the limits of mind and spirit



    And in passing through death

    I thank Thee, Lord, for blessings, big and small;

    For spring's warm glow and songbird's welcome call;

    For autumn's hue and winter's white snow shawl.

    I thank Thee for the harvest rich with grain;

    For tall trees and the quiet shadowed lane;

    For rushing stream, for birds that love to fly;

    My country's land, the mountains and the plain.

    I thank Thee for each sunset in the sky.

    For sleepy nights, the bed in which I lie;

    A life of truth and peace; a woman's hand,

    Her hand in mine until the day I die.

    I thank Thee, Lord for all these things above;

    But most of all I thank Thee for Thy Love.





    Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through

    the knowledge of God ```Peter 1:2





    And I pray that Christ will be more and more

    at home in your hearts as you trust in him.

    May your roots go down deep into the soil of

    God's marvelous love.



    And may you have the power to understand,

    as all God's people should,

    how wide, how long, how high,

    and how deep his love really is.



    May you experience the love of Christ,

    though it is so great

    you will never fully understand it.

    Then you will be filled with the fullness

    of life and power that comes from God.

    Oh, Lord, I thank you for the privilege and gift

    of living in a world filled with beauty and excitement

    and variety.



    I thank you for the gift of loving and being loved,

    for the friendliness and understanding and beauty

    of the animals on the farm and in the forest and marshes, for the green of the trees, the sound of the waterfall, the darting beauty of the trout in the brook.



    I thank you for the delights of music and children,

    of other people's thoughts and conversation

    and their books to read by the fireside or

    in bed with the rain falling on the roof

    or the snow blowing past outside the window.

    “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









    "Keep your faith in all beautiful things; in the sun when it is hidden, in the spring when it is gone."



    Roy R. Gilson







    This is such a beautiful prayer..A friend passed it along to me and I posted it a long time ago...Here it is again......

    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.

    This is the beginning of a new day.

    God has given me this day to use as I will. I can waste it, or use it for good, but what I do today is important because I am exchanging a day of my life for it.

    When tomorrow comes this day will be gone forever, leaving behind in its place something that I have traded for it. I want it to be a net gain and not loss, good and not evil, success and not failure, in order that I shall not regret the price that I have paid for it.

    Samuel F. Pugh

    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.

    Lord, behold our family here assembled.
    We thank you for this place in which we dwell,
    for the love that unites us,
    for the peace accorded to 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. Amen.

    --- Robert Louis Stevenson


    Lord God...

    Make me an instrument of Your healing.

    When I am weak and in pain, help me to rest.

    When I am anxious, help me to wait.

    When I am fearful, help me to trust.

    When I am lonely, help me to love

    And when I place You apart from me

    Help me to know You are near.


    Healing God...

    Grant me not so much

    To demand everything from myself

    As to let others help me;

    Not to expect others to cure me

    As to do my own part toward getting better.

    Grant me not so much to seek escape

    As to face myself...

    And learn the depths of Your love.

    For it is in being uncertain and not in control

    That we find true faith.

    In knowing the limits of mind and spirit

    And in passing through death

    That we find life that lasts forever.

    “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




    "Keep your faith in all beautiful things; in the sun when it is hidden, in the spring when it is gone."

    Roy R. Gilson



    This is such a beautiful prayer..A friend passed it along to me and I posted it a long time ago...Here it is again......
    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.

    This is the beginning of a new day.
    God has given me this day to use as I will. I can waste it, or use it for good, but what I do today is important because I am exchanging a day of my life for it.
    When tomorrow comes this day will be gone forever, leaving behind in its place something that I have traded for it. I want it to be a net gain and not loss, good and not evil, success and not failure, in order that I shall not regret the price that I have paid for it.
    Samuel F. Pugh

    Take my hand Dear Jesus-
    Guide me every day.
    Always stay close by me
    As I tread life's way.
    Make me kind and gentle,
    Loving,patient,true,
    Always treating others
    As you'd have me do.
    Take my hand Jesus,
    I am weak,You are strong.
    In the time of trouble,
    You are my hope,my song.
    You are the Son in daylight,
    You are the Son at night.
    Take my hand Dear Jesus,
    help me fight my fight...Author Unknown

    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.



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

    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

    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.

    Quiet things
    Lord grant the quiet things of life
    That bring a sense of peace, not strife;
    A tranquil hill of velvet green,
    A robins song,pastoral scence.
    The hush that comes at break of day
    Before the rush of work and play;
    The quiet patter of the rain
    That dances on my windowpane.
    The afterglow of sunset sky,
    A mothers tender lullaby;
    A time of prayer,a loved ones smile,
    Contentment from a day worthwhile
    Amid lifes noise and hurried pace,
    Help us find time for calming grace
    Of quiet things that bring release
    And give us to an inner peace...
    Message of Gratitude-By Helen Steiner Rice

    It's true we've never
    looked on God's face,
    But his likeness shines forth
    from every place,
    For the hand of God
    is everywhere
    Along life's busy
    thoroughfare,
    And his presence can be
    felt and seen
    Right in the midst
    of our daily routine.
    The things we touch
    and see and feel
    Are what makes God
    so very real.
    May you find serenity and tranquility in a world you may not always understand. May the pain you have known and the conflict you have experienced give you the strength to walk through life facing each new situation with courage and optimism. Always know that there are those whose love and understanding will always be there, even when you feel most alone. May you discover enough goodness in others to believe in a world of peace. May a kind word, a reassuring touch, and a warm smile be yours every day of your life, and may you give these gifts as well as receive them. Remember the sunshine when the storm seems unending.

    I asked the Lord to bless you
    As I prayed for you today
    To guide you and protect you
    As you go along your way....

    His love is always with you
    His promises are true,
    When things appear "too much" at times
    We know He'll see us through

    So when the road we're traveling on
    Seems difficult at best
    We'll keep praying for those better days,
    And God will do the rest....

    Lord, behold our family here assembled.
    We thank you for this place in which we dwell,
    for the love that unites us,
    for the peace accorded to 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. Amen.

    --- Robert Louis Stevenson


    Lord God...

    Make me an instrument of Your healing.

    When I am weak and in pain, help me to rest.

    When I am anxious, help me to wait.

    When I am fearful, help me to trust.

    When I am lonely, help me to love

    And when I place You apart from me

    Help me to know You are near.


    Healing God...

    Grant me not so much

    To demand everything from myself

    As to let others help me;

    Not to expect others to cure me

    As to do my own part toward getting better.

    Grant me not so much to seek escape

    As to face myself...

    And learn the depths of Your love.

    For it is in being uncertain and not in control

    That we find true faith.

    In knowing the limits of mind and spirit

    And in passing through death

    That we find life that lasts forever.

    I thank Thee, Lord, for blessings, big and small;
    For spring's warm glow and songbird's welcome call;
    For autumn's hue and winter's white snow shawl.
    I thank Thee for the harvest rich with grain;
    For tall trees and the quiet shadowed lane;
    For rushing stream, for birds that love to fly;
    My country's land, the mountains and the plain.
    I thank Thee for each sunset in the sky.
    For sleepy nights, the bed in which I lie;
    A life of truth and peace; a woman's hand,
    Her hand in mine until the day I die.
    I thank Thee, Lord for all these things above;
    But most of all I thank Thee for Thy Love.


    Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through
    the knowledge of God ```Peter 1:2


    And I pray that Christ will be more and more
    at home in your hearts as you trust in him.
    May your roots go down deep into the soil of
    God's marvelous love.

    And may you have the power to understand,
    as all God's people should,
    how wide, how long, how high,
    and how deep his love really is.

    May you experience the love of Christ,
    though it is so great
    you will never fully understand it.
    Then you will be filled with the fullness
    of life and power that comes from God.

    Oh, Lord, I thank you for the privilege and gift
    of living in a world filled with beauty and excitement
    and variety.

    I thank you for the gift of loving and being loved,
    for the friendliness and understanding and beauty
    of the animals on the farm and in the forest and marshes, for the green of the trees, the sound of the waterfall, the darting beauty of the trout in the brook.

    I thank you for the delights of music and children,
    of other people's thoughts and conversation
    and their books to read by the fireside or
    in bed with the rain falling on the roof
    or the snow blowing past outside the window.

    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




    "Keep your faith in all beautiful things; in the sun when it is hidden, in the spring when it is gone."

    Roy R. Gilson



    This is such a beautiful prayer..A friend passed it along to me and I posted it a long time ago...Here it is again......
    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.

    This is the beginning of a new day.
    God has given me this day to use as I will. I can waste it, or use it for good, but what I do today is important because I am exchanging a day of my life for it.
    When tomorrow comes this day will be gone forever, leaving behind in its place something that I have traded for it. I want it to be a net gain and not loss, good and not evil, success and not failure, in order that I shall not regret the price that I have paid for it.
    Samuel F. Pugh

    Take my hand Dear Jesus-
    Guide me every day.
    Always stay close by me
    As I tread life's way.
    Make me kind and gentle,
    Loving,patient,true,
    Always treating others
    As you'd have me do.
    Take my hand Jesus,
    I am weak,You are strong.
    In the time of trouble,
    You are my hope,my song.
    You are the Son in daylight,
    You are the Son at night.
    Take my hand Dear Jesus,
    help me fight my fight...Author Unknown

    Dear Lord we come here today with open hearts and minds..We thank you for our many blessings.. We thank you for setting our compass and leading the way to this board at a time when our vision was impaired and we needed an automatic pilot..... ...We are so thankful for the leadership of Dr. Weiss and her wonderful staff(Melissa thank you for keeping this board going)...Most of all Lord we are grateful for the company of women we have met here as Without them this would be a very lonely,frustrating,and dark journey... . We pray that you provide us with whatever it is that we may be in need of today as we are not always aware of what that might be..May your light shine brightly upon us during our times of darkness and despair so that we can adjust our compass and get back to where we need to be...Teach us the value of our silent moments as it is then that we may connect with you through our inner voice.... ..........Please fill our hearts and souls with peace and trust so that we may have a closer relationship with you.. We pray for vision enough to see beyond our own needs..We pray for direction Dear Lord and pray that you will lead us towards a path of compassion for our fellow man/women..May we find ourselves on a road where we can give direction and help those in their time of need..In doing so we pray to be blessed with the enrichment of a full and satisfied heart..For it is the random act of compassion and kindness that fills one's heart with the best elixir one could ever seek....In closing Lord we pray for your healing hands and ask you to have mercy and compassion for anyone who is suffering with ailments that affect the body,spirit or mind....We ask that you extend your loving hand over any one in need who prays to you lord so that they may experience the miracle's of faith,hope and mercy and enjoy the pleasures of restored health... health.You have taught us that "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven"...We pray that this season will bring us to a place of self growth, awareness and most of all closer to you Lord...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.



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

    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

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


    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.

    Sending special prayers to all fathers...May your day be blessed...xoxo,Patti

    May the blessing of light be upon you, light on the outside and light on the inside. With God's sunlight shining on you, may your heart glow with warmth like a turf fire that welcomes friends and strangers alike.



    May the light of the Lord shine from your eyes like a candle in the window, welcoming the weary traveler.



    May the blessing of God's soft rain be on you, falling gently on your head, refreshing your soul with the sweetness of little flowers newly blooming.



    May the strength of the winds of Heaven bless you, carrying the rain to wash your spirit clean, sparkling after, in the sunlight.



    May the blessing of God's earth be on you and as you walk the roads, may you always have a kind word for those you meet.



    May you understand the strength and power of God in a thunderstorm in winter, the quiet beauty of creation and the calm of a summer sunset.



    And may you come to realize that insignificant as you may seem in this great universe, you are an important part of God's plan.



    May He watch over you and keep you safe from harm.


    Lyrics by: Phil Coulter sung by Roma downey

    HAPPY FATHER'S DAY TO ALL THE WONDERFUL MEN IN OUR LIVES.


    I found these in a book written by Gale Pryor called Family Blessing for Special Moments Great and Small:

    May you find joy in the now,peace in the here, and love in me and thee.
    May you awake first and make the early piece of the morning your own.
    May you awake side by side and make tea together.
    May you always have company and conversation as you do the dishes.
    May your husband still show you his biceps after twenty years of marriage.
    May you remember your own faults two seconds before you remind someone else of theirs.
    May your home have more books than shelves,more food than plates, and more guests than chairs.
    May your home have a garden,however small,full of event.
    May your sheets always dry in the wind.
    May you find a patch of sun and a place in the shade every day.
    May you discover that baking fresh bread isn't really so hard after all.
    May the first tomato from your garden be tangy,fragrant,and still warm from the sun.
    May you never know hunger so strong that you would consider eating any of the cookie crumbs wedged in the back seat of the van.
    May you have a friend who inspires you anew with each encounter.
    May every neighborhood have a potluck,every dish its way home,and every family its place in the world.
    May you want what you have,and may the unmet needs of others be your only discountent.
    May you remember,whenever you go out into the world,that someone may need you there.
    May your memories of babies and toddlers be adequately recorded in your photo albums.
    May every parent of a teenager know when their child is right and they are wrong---and say so.
    May every small child watch an ant,and let it live.
    May the nightmare that woke the child be hushed and tucked away.
    May your children choose to read.
    May you accept your children as they are,even when they're never the same.
    May your children never be expected to do what they are not yet ready to do.
    May the rhyme your children chant be a rhyme that you--and all the children who came before you--once knew.
    May your children let you sleep in once in a while,and not try to cook while you do.
    May you reach the end of your to-do list.

    AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST::::
    MAY YOUR HEAD BE CLEAR,YOUR TEETH CLEAN,AND YOUR BOWELS FUNCTION PROPERLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Love and warm thoughts.MJB

    Lord, behold our family here assembled.
    We thank you for this place in which we dwell,
    for the love that unites us,
    for the peace accorded to 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. Amen.

    --- Robert Louis Stevenson


    Todays thought** HOPE

    By Emily Dickinson

    Hope is the thing with feathers
    That perches in the soul,
    And sings the tune without the words,
    And never stops at all,

    Cast all your anxieties on him, for he cares for you... 1 Peter 5:7

    Come now, turn aside for a while from your daily employment, escape for a moment from the tumult of your thoughts. Put aside your weighty cares, let your burdensome distractions wait, free yourself for a while for God and rest awhile in him. Enter the inner chamber of your soul, shut out everything except God and that which can help you in seeking him, and when you have shut the door, seek him. Now, my soul, say to God, 'I seek your face; Lord it is your face that I seek.' Amen.

    Let the peace of this place surround you as you pray. Let the hurry and worry of life fall away from you. You are God's child he loves you and cares for you. He is here with you now and always. Speak to him thoughtfully and allow him time to speak to you. Lord, thou knowest how busy I must be today. If I forget thee, do not Thou forget me . Have mercy on me, O God, according to your steadfast goodness; In your abundant mercy blot out my offences. Wash me thoroughly from my sin. For I acknowledge my rebelliousness, And my sin is always before me. Against you only have I sinned, And done what is evil in your eyes. Purge me with hyssop and I shall be whiter than snow. Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.Amen

    Love and warm thoughts.MJB

    Doubt sees the obstacles

    Faith sees the way.

    Doubt sees the darkest night

    Faith sees the day.

    Doubt dreads to take a step

    Faith soars on high.

    Doubt questions 'who believes?'

    Faith answers, 'I.'

    WELLSPRING

    By R. H. Grenville



    My life is fed at secret springs

    By quiet waters flowing

    From the eternal heart of things,

    Beyond my conscious knowing.

    I cannot bare their mystery

    Or mark upon a chart

    The avenues through which these streams

    Refresh the tired heart.

    I only know that when I thirst

    Or stumble in despair

    From wellsprings inexhaustible

    God hears and heeds my prayer.









    "I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean,

    Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens,

    Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance,

    And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance...



    I hope you dance..."



    From the song "I Hope You Dance"

    As performed by Lee Ann Womack







    Doubt sees the obstacles

    Faith sees the way.

    Doubt sees the darkest night

    Faith sees the day.

    Doubt dreads to take a step

    Faith soars on high.

    Doubt questions 'who believes?'

    Faith answers, 'I.'

    O Blessed Source,

    eternal Lord of creation,

    sustainer of all worlds,

    you embrace the whole cosmos within yourself,

    for everything exists in you.

    Let your winds come and breathe your everlasting Spirit in us.

    Let us inhale your divine Spirit and be inspired.

    Enlighten us in your truth.

    Pour your grace into our hearts.

    Wipe away our sin and all negativity.

    Transform us into your Love,

    and let us radiate that Love to all others.

    Inflame us with your unending life.

    Dissolve our limited way of being.

    Elevate us into your divine Life.

    Give us your capacity to share that Life with everyone.

    Shape us in your wisdom.

    Grant us your joy and laughter.

    Let us become that divine wisdom, sensitivity,

    laughter and joy for all beings.

    Let us realize fully that we are members of that Sacred Community with all humankind, with other species, with nature and the entire cosmos.

    Grant us a heart that can embrace them all in you.

    Let us be in communion with you forever in the bliss of that Love:

    the Love that sustains all

    and transforms all

    into your Divine Radiance.
    Brother Wayne Teasdale

    Special love and prayers go out to PCONN-Pat...her new grand-daughter Reilly Constance...And Pat's family...
    Doubt sees the obstacles
    Faith sees the way.
    Doubt sees the darkest night
    Faith sees the day.
    Doubt dreads to take a step
    Faith soars on high.
    Doubt questions 'who believes?'
    Faith answers, 'I.'

    Dearest Lord
    Help me to remember.
    That there is nothing in this world.
    That will happen to me today.
    That you and I together
    Can not handle.

    Author unknown

    /b]
    +++++++++++++++++++++++++

    Look to this day,
    For it is life,
    The very life of life.
    In it's brief course lie all
    The realities and verities of existence,
    The bliss of growth,
    The splendor of action,
    The glory of power--

    For yesterday is but a dream,
    And tomorrow is only a vision,
    But today, well lived,
    Makes every yesterday a dream of happiness and
    And every tomorrow a vision of hope.

    -Sanskrit Proverb-


    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    Lord, You invite all who are burdened to come to You. Allow your healing hand to heal me. Touch my soul with Your compassion for others. Touch my heart with Your courage and infinite love for all. Touch my mind with Your wisdom, that my mouth may always proclaim Your praise. Teach me to reach out to You in my need, and help me to lead others to You by my example. Most loving Heart of Jesus, bring me health in body and spirit that I may serve You with all my strength. Touch gently this life which You have created, now and forever.

    Amen. Found on a greeting card....


    Special love and prayers go out to PCONN-Pat...her new grand-daughter Reilly Constance...And Pat's family...

    A Poem by Babaji

    A Poem by Babaji

    A Himalayan Saint



    Love and serve all mankind, Assist everyone



    Be cheerful, be courteous

    Be a dynamo of irrepressible happiness

    See God and good in every face

    There is no saint without a past

    There is no sinner without a future

    Praise every soul

    If you cannot praise someone, let them pass out of your life



    Be original, be inventive

    Dare, dare, and then dare more

    Do not imitate. Stand on your own ground

    Do not lean on the borrowed staff of others

    Think your own thoughts. Be yourself

    All perfection and all virtues of God are hidden inside you, reveal them

    God is already within you reveal Him



    Let God emancipate you. Let your life be that of a rose

    Through silence it speaks in the language of fragrance











    Oh, Lord, I thank you for the privilege and gift

    of living in a world filled with beauty and excitement

    and variety.



    I thank you for the gift of loving and being loved,

    for the friendliness and understanding and beauty

    of the animals on the farm and in the forest and marshes, for the green of the trees, the sound of the waterfall, the darting beauty of the trout in the brook.



    I thank you for the delights of music and children,

    of other people's thoughts and conversation

    and their books to read by the fireside or

    in bed with the rain falling on the roof

    or the snow blowing past outside the window.



    Louis Bromfield





    Lord, You invite all who are burdened to come to You. Allow your healing hand to heal me. Touch my soul with Your compassion for others. Touch my heart with Your courage and infinite love for all. Touch my mind with Your wisdom, that my mouth may always proclaim Your praise. Teach me to reach out to You in my need, and help me to lead others to You by my example. Most loving Heart of Jesus, bring me health in body and spirit that I may serve You with all my strength.

    Quote:
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    “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



    Lord, You invite all who are burdened to come to You. Allow your healing hand to heal me. Touch my soul with Your compassion for others. Touch my heart with Your courage and infinite love for all. Touch my mind with Your wisdom, that my mouth may always proclaim Your praise. Teach me to reach out to You in my need, and help me to lead others to You by my example. Most loving Heart of Jesus, bring me health in body and spirit that I may serve You with all my strength. Touch gently this life which You have created, now and forever.

    Amen. Found on a greeting card....


    Special love and prayers go out to PCONN-Pat...her new grand-daughter Reilly Constance...And Pat's family...
    For Pepper and her daughter who is expecting a baby and for STacy-Harleyhoney and her daughter who is also expecting....
    +++++++++++++++++++++

    Dear Lord our special prayers go out to Tine and her family... LU...Lori and Phil Sr...
    Wendy K..Shellay and her family for the loss of their mom.........Lauren....Marissa..Dunners friend Terri..And for Mac a family friend who passed away suddenly this week......And all of the women and men of this board and their families...For our new members..Anyone waiting for results or Having surgery or treatments today...Please hear our prayers...


    May you be blessed and safe today..xoox,Patti



    Sometimes the answer to prayer is not that it changes life,
    but that it changes you.



    Lord help me to remember that nothing is going to happen to me today that You and I together can't handle.
    Amen.

    O Lord, our heavenly Father,
    almighty and everlasting God,
    who hast safely brought us to the beginning of this day;
    defend us in the same with thy mighty power;
    and grant that this day we fall into no sin,
    neither run into any kind of danger,
    but that all our doings may be ordered by thy governance,
    to do always that is righteous in thy sight;
    through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

    Other refuge have I none;
    Hangs my helpless soul on Thee:
    Leave, ah! leave me not alone,
    Still support and comfort me.
    All my trust on Thee is stayed,
    All my help from Thee I bring;
    Cover my defenseless head
    With the shadow of Thy wing! Amen

    I was scanning the website this morning and I see some of you ladies are burning the midnight oil, I remember those days vividly. I found there was always one or two here to talk all the time . All of our sisters give of their time so lovingly .This morning I would like to share the words of a Cancer Sister :

    When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say , "I used everything you gave me " Author Erma Bombeck .

    Sowing Hopes and Wishes

    Balm brings you sympathy and Marjoram joy
    Sage is long life...Sweet Woodruff augurs well for health---
    A blessing richer far than wealth.
    While Lavender means deep devotion,
    Herb of sweet omen,Rosemary conveys
    Affection and remembrance all your days
    May Heaven and Earth and Man combine
    To keep these blessings ever thine...Rachel Page Elliot

    I have learned, in whatsoever state I am,therewith to be content.

    I offer prayers to Almighty God for the many newbies on our sight . I pray ever thing goes well for them. I pray the number gets less and less as each day goes by . The sisters who are going through treatment may they find peace ,strength and comfort in God . Sisters who have a recurrence, God help them find hope and peace of mind as they face the new challenges . The sisters who are finally finished ,help them to overcome the fear of recurrence, give them courage to forge ahead and live their life in Christ. I most humbly ask for help so the doctors will finally find a cure for this beast , I ask in the name of Jesus Christ or Lord .Amen

    I would like to also pray for the husbands,boyfriends , fathers,wives,mothers,girlfriends and children of the men and women overseas.Blessings and thanks to the men and women in the military who have choosen the career in life to defend our Countries . May they all come back to us with health and peace of mind . I pray their stay overseas will be short lived defeating the evil that excess in this world .Amen

    Have a great day.
    Love and warm thoughts.MJB

    In the morning, O Lord, you hear my voice;
    In the morning, I lay my requests before you
    and wait in expectation.
    Psalm 5:3

    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.



    Love is patient; love is kind. Love is not jealous, it does not
    put on airs, it is not snobbish. Love is never rude, it is not
    self-seeking,
    it is not prone to anger; neither does it brood over injuries.
    Love does not rejoice in what is wrong but rejoices with the
    truth. There is no limit to love's forbearance, to its trust,
    its hope, its power to endure. 1 Corinthians 13:4-7




    "For wherever two or more are gathered in my name, there am I in the midst of them."

    To help us in days of need,
    And to rejoice with us in moments of celebration...

    Father,
    We praise You for Your Son Jesus,
    Who knew the happiness of family and friends,
    And in the love of Your Holy Spirit.
    Blessed are you for ever and ever.

    The Wise Old Owl

    Like the Solomon of fowl
    Sat a wise old owl
    Perched in a Sycamore tree,
    While the moonlight glimmered
    And the starlight shimmered,
    These words he spoke to me:

    "I guess you've heard
    I'm a wise old bird,
    And if wisdom you would find...
    Always look for the best
    And your life will be blest,
    To all others' faults be blind.

    "In this life, I know
    You will find it so
    That if you think kindly of others,
    You'll soon find that it's true
    They'll think kindly of you...
    *Praise* your sisters and your brothers!"

    You may think me a fool ~
    Owls don't talk, as a rule,
    But in solemn tone he said:
    "Don't be quick to enact
    Words you'll wish to retract,
    Dwell upon the *good* instead!"

    Though I hate to admit it,
    I could see, once I did it,
    What that wise owl said was true.
    Your faults I'll overlook
    'Cause it says in The Book
    What you sow comes back to you!

    Now, if you will agree
    With what he said to me,
    Then *my* faults you will ignore...
    Like that sage bird said
    We'll both come out ahead
    If we judge less, and *praise* more!

    "Fix your thoughts on what is true and good and right. Think about things that are pure and lovely, and dwell on the fine, good things in others. Think about all you can praise God for and be glad about... and the God of peace will be with you." (Philippians 4:8 )
    ... Connie Hinnen Cook
    Love and warm thoughts.

    Dear Lord we gather here this morning

    to give you thanks...



    Help us on our journey today...



    WE need direction...



    Lord we ask for



    more faith...



    more hope...



    strength



    healing



    love



    compassion



    patience



    sound judgement



    and most of all we peay for an open mind...

    heart

    and ears



    so that we can feel your presence



    recieve your message



    and



    receive your gifts......



    Hear our prayers and grant us peace this day....Amen...xoxo,Patti



    "This is the beginning of a new day. You have been given this day to use as you will. You can waste it or use it for good. What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever; in its place is something that you have left behind...let it be something good."



    Author Unknown





    To believe is to know that every day

    is a new beginning.

    It is to trust that miracles happen,

    and dreams really do come true.

    To believe is to see angels dancing among the clouds,

    To know the wonder of a stardust sky

    and the wisdom of the man in the moon.

    To believe is to know the value of a nurturing heart,

    The innocence of a child's eyes

    and the beauty of an aging hand,

    for it is through their teachings we learn to love.

    To believe is to find the strength

    and courage that lies within us.

    When it is time to pick up the pieces and begin again.

    To believe is to know we are not alone,

    That life is a gift and this is our time to cherish it.

    To believe is to know that wonderful surprises

    are just waiting to happen,

    And all our hopes and dreams are within reach.

    If only we believe.

    • When I live in the moment life is always very good to me.

    • When I live in the moment illness keeps its distance from me.

    • When I live in the moment my dreams become a reality for me.

    • When I live in the moment stress and worry melt away from me

    • When I live in the moment the love I seek finds its way home to me.

    • When I live in the moment happiness and prosperity increase for me.

    • When l live in the moment my thoughts never cause inner conflict for me.

    Poem by Ralph

    “In the Morning”:



    I met God in the morning



    When my day was at its best,



    And His presence came like sunrise



    Like a glory in my breast.







    All day long the Presence lingered;



    All day long He stayed with me.



    And we sailed with perfect calmness



    O’er a very troubled sea.







    Other ships were blown and battered,



    Other ships were sore distressed;



    But the winds that seemed to drive them



    Brought to us a peace and rest.







    Then I thought of other mornings



    With a keen remorse of mind,



    When I, too, had loosed the moorings



    With the Presence left behind.







    So I think I know the secret,



    Learned from many a troubled way.



    You must seek God in the morning



    If you want Him through the day.





    May we all find peace and comfort as we live and concentrate on the moments..Have a safe 4th ..xoxo,

    Patti



    Dear Lord we gather here this morning

    to give you thanks...



    Help us on our journey today...



    WE need direction...



    Lord we ask for



    more faith...



    more hope...



    strength



    healing



    love



    compassion



    patience



    sound judgement



    and most of all we peay for an open mind...

    heart

    and ears



    so that we can feel your presence



    recieve your message



    and



    receive your gifts......



    Hear our prayers and grant us peace this day....Amen...xoxo,Patti



    "This is the beginning of a new day. You have been given this day to use as you will. You can waste it or use it for good. What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever; in its place is something that you have left behind...let it be something good."

    To believe is to know that every day

    is a new beginning.

    It is to trust that miracles happen,

    and dreams really do come true.

    To believe is to see angels dancing among the clouds,

    To know the wonder of a stardust sky

    and the wisdom of the man in the moon.

    To believe is to know the value of a nurturing heart,

    The innocence of a child's eyes

    and the beauty of an aging hand,

    for it is through their teachings we learn to love.

    To believe is to find the strength

    and courage that lies within us.

    When it is time to pick up the pieces and begin again.

    To believe is to know we are not alone,

    That life is a gift and this is our time to cherish it.

    To believe is to know that wonderful surprises

    are just waiting to happen,

    And all our hopes and dreams are within reach.

    If only we believe.







    [bIn our Home…



    We encourage one another,

    We build one another up,

    We are at peace with each other,

    We seek to do good,

    We rejoice,

    We give thanks,

    We pray constantly,

    In our Home. ....from apple-seeds



    Heavenly Father,

    in my present need,

    help me to believe

    that you are aware of my anxiety

    and will do what is best for me.

    Give me the strength to trust you

    and put the present and future in your hands.

    Grant this through Christ, our Lord. Amen....~~From CD-Ministry

    Sometimes the answer to prayer is not that it changes life,

    but that it changes you.







    Lord help me to remember that nothing is going to happen to me today that You and I together can't handle.
