I was shopping in a small resort town in up North Minnesota and saw a sign with this verse on it. So I cross referenced and realized that I don't have it in a prayer. Oh my, how perfect this verse is for both us and our loved one.
He is the lighthouse that guides us. He is the refuge in the storm. He is where I draw my strength and comfort from. And today I'll pray that my loved one will be led back to the light.
August 17, 2018 Our Prayer for Our Loved One Today:
Psalm 141:8 NIV [8] But my eyes are fixed on you, Sovereign Lord; in you I take refuge....
Oh Abba Father, we come to you today weak, tired and lost. Not able to see what's in front of us because of the storms that are raging around us. Lord, we know that the only way through the storm is to keep our eyes fixed on you, to not lose sight of the light that is always there to guide us. And Lord, today we humbly ask that (our loved one) would make that decision, that decision to fix (his/her) eyes on you. Lord we ask that You, in your sovereignty would guide (our loved one) back to a place of safety and refuge in You alone. Lord, protect (him/her), keep (him/her) safe through in the darkness and bring (him/her) back to calm waters. We know this is Your desire and we believe that it will happen. We ask this in Your Son's precious name. Amen!
