  • Pray for difficult relationships.

    Many times when I felt at a roadblock with a friend or family member I had nothing else left to do but Pray. I’ve learned my lesson because Prayer should have been at the forefront to begin with in all my relationships.

    Countless times when no other human option worked Prayer came thru. God has healed relationships in my life and helped create peace thru wisdom gained from specific Prayer.

    Now I make sure I Pray before phone calls with family, outings with friends, business relationships and more. I Pray for wisdom, guidance, direction and protection often to help me navigate relationships. I wouldn’t be effective on my own with taking direction from God thru Prayer.

  • Pray for those who mistreat you.

    “Bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.”

    – Luke 6:28

  • God hear our Prayers

    “Now, our God, hear the prayers and petitions of your servant. For your sake, O Lord, look with favor on your desolate sanctuary. Give ear, O God…We do not make requests of you because we are righteous, but because of your great mercy.”

    — Daniel 9:17-18

  • Prayer & Faith for Business

    I’ve been in business for myself for about 31 years. Those close to me know my main form of growth and stability in business with my clients is based on prayer.

    I pray regularly that God sends me the right clients for me and that I’m the right Personal Trainer to my clients. I pray I am the help they need and they are the help I need financially.

    That’s been my key for years. It’s bigger and deeper than me, sales, marketing etc…it’s the power of PRAYER.

    God provides when we ask and our heart is right. Faith in God should be at the core of our personal and business lives.

  • My Shorter Prayers

    My youngest asked me the other day as she heard me praying when an ambulance drove by…”Dad why are your prayers short?”. I told her most of my prayers each day are short because it’s before a meal/snack, before work, when an ambulance or fire truck drives by, or I see a social media post of a friend or family member asking for prayer etc…but I do have longer prayers early in the day and sometimes before bed.

    I pray about everything I told her all throughout the day, every day. It’s so important to me and my life and it guides me through each day.

  • Give Thanks to the Lord for His Love Endures Forever

    “Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good. His love endures forever. Give thanks to the God of gods. His love endures forever. Give thanks to the Lord of lords: His love endures forever…to the One who remembered us in our low estate, His love endures forever. And freed us from our enemies, His love endures forever.”

    – Psalm 136 : 1-3, 23-24

  • My Little Nieces have a Prayer before meals

    My Daughter told me her cousins (my little Nieces) have a prayer they use before meals too and it’s like a sweet little rhyme and song Prayer:

    “God our Father, God our Father, we thank you, we thank you, for our many blessings, for our many blessings…Amen, Amen.”
