A midday prayer bump
Lord, watch over us, and guide us, for the way seems dark and frightening, and grief seems to be the result of so many ways we can turn.
Amen.
Thou,
like a breath of wind, unseen but not unfelt,
whose presence breathes across the waters of my heart,
Breathing life into each breath I take,
surrounding me in my every move,
sharing in my every joy,
feeling the anguish of my every pain,
Thou.
O Lord, Giver of life,
Comforter, Quickener, Spirit, Breath,
Direct my feet in the way they should go,
Fill my heart with that love I should have,
Teach me that trust that will let me always walk in the light,
Even through the grief,
Even through the pain
Even through the loss that comes merely with living.
And let me rest in the knowledge that you are here with me,
day by day,
giving me the words when I know not what to say,
giving me the hope to walk another step,
giving me the joy that comes unbidden
from the fountains of Heaven.
Thou,
O Lord,
O Spirit,
O God,
Glory to you!
A much needed moment of peace and hope.

An "Amen" and a BTTT.
Psa 69:13 But as for me, my prayer is to you, O LORD. At an acceptable time, O God, in the abundance of your steadfast love answer me in your saving faithfulness.
Thank you Father for the encouragment of many praying together for this nation and your people in it.
Father protect us from the arrow that flies by noonday. Protect our troops wherever they serve and our leaders in office.
Psa 90:1 A Prayer of Moses, the man of God. Lord, you have been our dwelling place in all generations.
Psa 90:2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God.
Amen
Father, please protect us from those that threaten destruction. Who breathe out threats against your people....there is nothing new under the sun.....
2Ki 19:14 Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the messengers and read it; and Hezekiah went up to the house of the LORD and spread it before the LORD.
2Ki 19:15 And Hezekiah prayed before the LORD and said: "O LORD the God of Israel, who is enthroned above the cherubim, you are the God, you alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth; you have made heaven and earth.
2Ki 19:16 Incline your ear, O LORD, and hear; open your eyes, O LORD, and see; and hear the words of Sennacherib, which he has sent to mock the living God.
Oh Lord, hear the words of those who mock you and threaten us and Israel in these days. Let it be as in the days of Hezekiah that you fight for us again. Let your Name be exhalted.
I agree with my sister that your Word always performs that which it is sent to do and will not return to you void.
amen
OH this is ministering to my very weary being today.....
