  • Jesus Prayed

    “Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house, and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed.”

    – Matthew 1:35

  • My Mother’s Prayers

    My Mom prayed about everything and for everyone. It was her calm to life’s storms. Prayer defeated my Mom’s worries. I watched her love Jesus and have a deep relationship with God until the day she died. She wanted us to know God, Pray first, love others, and have Faith in Jesus Christ, our Heavenly Father, & The Holy Spirit.

  • 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.”

  • The Name of the Lord is to be Praised!

    “Let the name of the Lord be praised, both now and forevermore. From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets, the name of the Lord is to be praised.”

    – Psalm 113:2-3

  • A Kids Prayer Before Meals

    My two youngest kids usually have a go-to Prayer they use before meals when they are asked to Pray. I asked my youngest (6) to help me write this so I can share that Prayer:

    (It’s like a rhyming song/Prayer combo)

    We are thankful, we are thankful, for our food, for our food. All of us together, all of us together, thank you God, thank you God.

    Amen.

  • His Love Endures Forever

    “Praise the Lord. Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever. Who can proclaim the mighty acts of the Lord or fully declare His praise? Blessed are they who maintain justice, who constantly do what is right.”

    – Psalm 106:1-3
