Lord God, thank You for a new day. Thank You for beautiful spring weather in Colorado this week. Thank You for answered prayers for Joanne Heim as she continues to recover from her stroke. Thank You for the message Sheila Walsh shared last night at the Life Network fundraiser. Thank You for the ways You repeated a couple messages to my daughter yesterday. Made me smile to know You are making Your presence known to her. Bring it on.
God, You are good. Your love is beyond measure and beyond understanding. Thank You for the joy You set before me each day. You are worthy of my praise. You are worthy of my adoration. I love You, Jesus.
I lift up the needs of my loved ones today. There are many I know and love who need You, the Comforter. Please come and minister to the depths of their physically pain. Touch them with Your healing touch. Remove the dark cloud, send showers of love. Reach down and lift those up who are in muddy waters. Wash them clean and wrap them in blankets of grace. Provide for their financial needs. Send a miracle.
Bless their lives so that they may sing Your praises. Even in these seasons of testing let them see You clearly. Allow them eyes and ears to see and hear Your voice. Sing over them. Whisper truths. Remind them of Your righteous right hand. Hold them close to Your heart.
Thank You for never leaving them. I trust You with the days of their lives for we are all safe in Your hand. No weapon formed against us will prosper. We are blessed to live as victors, no longer as victims. We can claim all of Your promises. You rebuild our broken hearts.
You make ALL things beautiful in time.
I confess my unbelief to You again. Help me walk by faith not by sight. My sight will always be limited here on earth, but You are limitless. I long to follow You without second guessing the path. I long to step out even when I can’t see around the next corner. Even when it’s dark. Even when the storms of life crash in on me. Help me focus on You, the author and finisher of my faith. You will finish what You started. Thank You for this amazing truth.
I cling to truths today. I surrender any lies. I hand over my fears.
I pick up my cross and carry it knowing it’s exactly what You have for me. It’s a gift of Your grace. A mysterious and beautiful gift indeed.
Thank You Lord, that Your burden is light. I come to You for my daily food and drink. Nourish my soul. Feed my spirit. Thank You that I don’t have to live spiritually malnourished or dehydrated. I can come to You the Living Water and my Daily Bread and be filled and satisfied. Glory!
In Jesus name, Amen

Thank you for your prayers every week. Trusting in God is so hard. This is where the Enemy can attack us – by whispering lies in our ear and causing us to fear.
But there is no need. Help is always there. In Mark 9:24 a father tells Jesus, “I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!” I find myself praying that a lot.

Hi Tiffany, been a long while, but am I so glad to have dropped by today. Was thinking about you, we had exchanged a couple of emails about a year ago.
I really needed to read this today. I was just coming over to see how you were and then I was more blessed than I had imagined. Thank you for this wonderful post. It has helped encourage me a lot!
