{quotes}
The wonderful thing about praying is that you leave a world of not being able to do something, and enter God’s realm where everything is possible.
Corrie Ten Boom
I think we’d like life to be like a train..but it turns out to be a sailboat.
Barbara Brown Taylor
Forget what you have done for your friends, and remember what they have done for you. Disregard what the world owes you, and concentrate on what you owe the world.
S.H. Payer
{blessings}
Heavenly Peace
Heaven is not a place, but a peace. May you be blessed to know that the dearly departed rest in peace with the angels, the generations
who came before, and the holy God, Creator of all.
Your Hand of God
May fragility be your strength. In a world that’s hurting, where hearts are tender, the Lord has blessed you with unique understanding. Reach out to others and extend the hand of God.
Seriously
May you be blessed to be taken seriously. May your voice be heard, your words be clear, and may the one sitting across from you be alert and receptive to what you have to say. You matter. Let them know it.
{prayers}
Rough Waters
Your sea is great, O Lord, and the waters are rough. My boat is small, I am weak and discouraged. Touch me and lift me to the higher holy ground.
Lord Have Mercy
Lord, have mercy on me. Forgive my sins, cover me in goodness. Thank You for Your endless compassion and Your constant support. Thank You for the blessings I am about to receive.
Alone, Not Lonely
Though I am alone, I know I am not on my own. Thank You, dear God, for gracing me with independence while being with me always. It is faith in You that reassures me and keeps me from distress. Oh, I long for these precious moments when knowing becomes a feeling, and I am filled with Your divine love.
{bible}
The mountains may move, and the hills disappear, but even then my faithful love for you will remain. My covenant of blessing will never be broken. I am the Lord, who has mercy on you.
Isaiah 54:10
Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouth, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, and that it may give grace to those who hear.
Ephesians 4:29
