Be brave my warrior son, when you are going through withdrawal and are shaking for your next fix.
Be brave, my warrior daughter, when you feel that your only option for food is to earn money in the hotel room you are in.
Be strong, warrior daddy, when the alcohol is drawing you away from the children who are standing at the door crying for you to come back.
Be strong, warrior mama, when your kids are in the back seat watching you with the strap around your arm.
Don’t give up warrior sister, when you haven’t heard from your loved one in months.
Don’t give up warrior brother, when your dreams have been broken like shattered glass.
I am with you. I am beside you. I am waiting to give you everything you need to live. With a simple whisper…”Help me.”
August 13, 2018 Our prayer for our Loved One today:
Psalm 31:24 MSG
[24] Be brave. Be strong. Don't give up. Expect God to get here soon.
Almighty God, you are our strength and shield. We praise you today because you alone have the power to make us brave and strong and steadfast. Lord, we sit at your feet today, interceding on behalf of (our loved one) who is fearful, who is weak, who is ready to quit. And we pray today that you would come quickly to (him/her). Fill (our loved one) with courage, as (he/she) struggles to be brave. Fill (our loved one) with power, as (he/she) struggles to be strong. And fill (our loved one) with endurance, as (he/she) struggles to fight another day. Lord, we sit in anticipation that you are already with (him/her). You are sitting next to (him/her) in that tent, in the shelter, in the front seat of the car, in the motel, in the broken mess of (his/her) life. And that as (he/she) cries out to you today, you will perform the ultimate rescue. We thank you that the work has already been done and all we have to do is receive it. We pray this prayer in your son’s precious name. Amen.
