Morning Prayer

" "This little light of mine..I"m going to let it shine"



There is not enough darkness

in all the world

to put out the light

of one small candle~~~~ inscription on a grave marker



In Christ there is no East or West,

in him no South or North,

but one great fellowship of love

throughout the whole wide earth.



taken from a hymn





We are on this journey together

holding hands

finding comfort and love

friendship and inspiration

while trying to hold onto

hope for the future...

our future

May God bless all of us with

all he knows we need for this day

as we try to live

one day at time ...

xoxo,

Patti

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



along the way

One furnace melts all hearts -

love;



One balm soothes all pain -

patience;



One medicine cures all ills -

time;



One light illuminates all darkness -

hope.

This is for all of my friends here--

Love is patient, love is kind.

It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.

It is not rude, it is not self-seeking,

it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. ...**********

--Asking the Lord to send special blessing to all of the women and men on the boards....



Praying that God's blessings are abundant and that he is always close by your side as your journey through each day of life.....

Most of all may each and every one of your prayers be answered today and always...With love

xoxo,Patti

Dear Jesus, Divine Physician and Healer of the Sick, we turn to You in this time of illness. O dearest comforter of the Troubled, alleviate our worry and sorrow with Your gentle love, and grant us the grace and strength to accept this burden. Dear God, we place our worries in Your hands. We place our sick under Your care and humbly ask that You restore Your servant to health again. Above all, grant us the grace to acknowledge Your holy will and know that what-so-ever you do, you do for the love of us. Amen.

Dear Lord, Good Shepherd, You heal the sick and
the needy. I give you all those parts
of my body which have suffered from illness.
You know what it is like to endure pain.
Look kindly on me today and heal me. Restore me to strength of soul and body.
Give Your gift of wisdom to my physician
that he/she may may be guided by the Holy Spirit
in all he/she does. Bless my nurses so that their hands will become Your hands as they touch me. Bless, too, my medication. O Jesus, grant us all Your healing
race of love and peace. AMEN --
##############################
We ask you to restore faith where faith is weak
We ask you to restore hope where hope is weak

Lord please help us and guide us
Lord please bring comfort where there is pain,
courage where there is fear,
hope where there is despair,
acceptance when the end is near,
and a touch gentle with tenderness, patience, and love

We pray for our Doctor's,Nurses and caregivers..
Oh my God,
teach me to receive the sick in Your Name.
Give to my efforts success
for the glory of Your Holy Name.
It is Your work, without You I can not succeed.
Grant that the sick You have placed
in my care may be blessed,
and not any one be lost
because of neglect on my part.
Help me to overcome every temporal weakness,
and strengthen in me whatever will enable me to
bring joy to the lives of those I serve.
Give me grace for the sake of Your sick ones
and of those lives that will be influenced by them.
Amen
We can do no great things, only small things with great love

May God bless you with discomfort at easy answers,
half truths, superficial relationships,
so that you will live deep within your heart.

May God bless you with anger at injustice, oppression and exploitation of people so that you will work for justice, equality and peace.

May God bless you with tears to shed for those who suffer from pain, rejection, starvation and war, so that you will reach out your hand to comfort them and change their pain into joy.

And may God bless you with the foolishness to think that you can make a difference in the world, so that you will do the things which others tell you cannot be done.

I can take enough dynamite and move
it if it needs movin'. I pray, Lord,
for enough faith to move me.

Dear God....May we always trust you in every situation...



Lord we pray together as a group on our prayer chain..

We know you that you read and see what is burried deep inside of our minds

feel what is inside of our hearts and also experience the pain and anguish that we endure on earth...

We also know that you feel our joy and walk by our sides regardless of where we are on life's journey.. .



We pray today that you answer some of our prayers and hear the gentle whisper of anyone who is too weak to seek you out..



For some are so weak and feeble and are unable to call your name..Please accept our prayers on their behalf ...Amen..xoxo,Patti



Where two or more are gathered together, there dwells divine spirit!

As you read these words, your prayers join with the prayers of all who pray here.....

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.............



todays thought=== It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver.

~ Mahatma Gandhi



in memory of oud dear and precious sisters we have lost to cancer....They watch over us from above..xoxo,Patti

Indian Prayer--

I give you this one thought to keep -

I am with you still - I do not sleep.



I am a thousand winds that blow,

I am the diamond glints on snow,

I am the sunlight on ripened grain,

I am the gentle autumn rain.



When you awaken in the morning's hush,

I am the swift, uplifting rush

of quiet birds in circled flight.

I am the soft stars that shine at night.



Do not think of me as gone -

I am with you still - in each new dawn.





• Because God is with me, I am content to be wherever I am.

• Learning to respond to now is all there is to learn.

• I will make no effort to step ahead of God.

• All power and glory lie in my harmlessness, which is of God.

• Gentleness of thought is my way Home.

• Today I will not project.

• My mind is cradled in the peace of God.

Quiet Answers , Hugh Prather





May we all know and experience the gift of



faith and hope ..xoxo,

Patti

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.

And may God bless you with the foolishness to think that you can make a difference in the world, so that you will do the things which others tell you cannot be done.

Lord, I don't ask for a faith

that would move yonder mountain.

I can take enough dynamite and move

it if it needs movin'. I pray, Lord,

for enough faith to move me.



Norman Allen

There is not enough darkness

in all the world

to put out the light

of one small candle~~~~ inscription on a grave marker



In Christ there is no East or West,

in him no South or North,

but one great fellowship of love

throughout the whole wide earth.



taken from a hymn





We are on this journey together

holding hands

finding comfort and love

friendship and inspiration

while trying to hold onto

hope for the future...

our future

May God bless all of us with

all he knows we need for this day

as we try to live

one day at time ...

xoxo,

Patti

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



along the way

One furnace melts all hearts -

love;



One balm soothes all pain -

patience;



One medicine cures all ills -

time;



One light illuminates all darkness -

hope.





Ivan Panin

"The difference between a flower and a weed is a judgement."Barry Neil Kaufman

This is for all of my friends here--

Love is patient, love is kind.

It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.

It is not rude, it is not self-seeking,

it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. ...**********

--Asking the Lord to send special blessing to all of the women and men on the boards....



Praying that God's blessings are abundant and that he is always close by your side as your journey through each day of life.....

Most of all may each and every one of your prayers be answered today and always................................

With love

xoxo,Patti

May the Angels walk alongside of you and keep you safe always......Patti

Blessed are the Angels who walk with us,

though we are unaware,

Those people who take time to listen

... to understand and care.

Blessed are those with unseen halos,

earned through deeds of love,

For they will always be for us Sweet Blessings From Above

Dear Jesus, Divine Physician and Healer of the Sick, we turn to You in this time of illness. O dearest comforter of the Troubled, alleviate our worry and sorrow with Your gentle love, and grant us the grace and strength to accept this burden. Dear God, we place our worries in Your hands. We place our sick under Your care and humbly ask that You restore Your servant to health again. Above all, grant us the grace to acknowledge Your holy will and know that what-so-ever you do, you do for the love of us. Amen.
