{blessings}
Exercise!
Exercise is a celebration of what your body can do, not a punishment for what you ate yesterday. May God bless you with good health. Your body is a temple.
Contentment is Yours
May God bless you and your family with faith equal to any occasion, trust greater than any need, and conviction mightier than any problem. Contentment is yours.
Enough Already
Live contentedly. It’s enough already with the searching, seeking, and desperate desire. May God bless you with satisfaction. Look around, and love what you see.
It’s Only Temporary
Feeling defeated, dejected, and overwhelmed? It’s merely a temporary condition unless you give up, that’s when it becomes permanent. May God bless you with perseverance. Don’t give in to your negative feelings, overcome them instead.
Loved by Peace
You are loved by the peace you bring to others. Calm is a virtue worth cultivating. May God bless you with a soothing voice of reassurance. Live and give peacefully.
{prayers}
Finding Success
My God, You teach me to be self-sufficient, yet firm in my faith. If I am to find success, I must look for it. Thank You for providing me the wherewithal to accomplish great things by the grace of Your Divine blessings.
Sacred Charge
Here I am, ready to answer Your sacred charge. Oh my holy Creator, use me for the good of others. Help me see Your plan, trust in me to carry it through.
Prayer for Family
God bless the ones I love. Protect them from harm: physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. Help them find success. May they know joy. Strengthen their faith.
Brighter and Better
My soul waits patiently for help and healing. I trust You wholly dear God, knowing tomorrow brings a brighter and better day.
Before I Knew You
Lord, before I knew You, I didn’t know what it was like to be happy. I was moody, quick to judge, slow to forgive, impatient, and ungrateful. Praise to You, who teaches me, tends to me and transforms me.
