  • I Pray because …

    I pray because Prayer gives me peace. Praying to God helps comfort me and fills me with the strength only HE can give me. I cannot do life by myself. I can’t effectively navigate the hardships life throws my way without the help of The Father, Th Son, & The Holy Spirit.

    God loves me and I feel it…that’s why I have Faith. I feel God near me when I Pray and feel his care and love for me.

    Without Prayer I would feel very alone in this life and would be mediocre as a family man and business man.

    God has been good to me and I respect HIM and respect Prayer. I know the power of Prayer and have seen Prayer work in my life personally for decades.

    I love God and thank God for the privilege to be able to have a personal connection with HIM thru Prayer.

    Prayer is my Lifeline.

  • Gracious God We Thank YOU

    Gracious God, we thank you
    that you can use these lives,
    these imperfect lives, to fulfil
    your purposes and become
    the means through which
    others might meet with you
    and know your saving grace.
    For the faith you have in us
    and the roles prepared for us
    we offer everything we are,
    and everything we can become
    through your love and power.

  • The Peace of Christ

    Colossians 3:15

    And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful.
  • God has shown HIMself again!

    God has shown himself in our lives multiple times these past few weeks. Dealing with some legal issues for a family member and we really prayed the right people would step-up to law enforcement and not just speak to us off the record…then they didn’t…so we felt sad but never worried because we prayed God would direct everything according to HIS will.

    Right before the day in court we didn’t need those people to come forward anyway because the person admitted their own guilt prior to court and that was the most powerful admission we could get.

    Praise God because God is Good and HE showed up and everything went according to HIS will not ours. It all turned out better than we could have expected.

  • I Want A Good Life!

    Like all people, I want a good life—loving relationships, rewarding work, and abiding peace. Yet these blessings may elude me until I awaken to my inherent worth.

    I am created in the image and likeness of God. My worth does not depend on my behaviors. I am intrinsically worthy because I am a living, loving, divine creation.

    When doubts arise, I remember the truth of my being. The good I seek is right where I am. The love I desire is the love of God already present. The work I long to do is Spirit’s calling within me. As I stand in my own sacred worth, I feel the blessings of God infill me. I am worthy of my good. I expect the best, and I am ready to receive!

    Now, my daughter, do not be afraid, I will do for you all that you ask, for all the assembly of my people know that you are a worthy woman.—Ruth 3:11
