Some days are just hard...
Expectations unmet, dreams shattered, lives and hearts broken into a million pieces.
And in the middle of all that we try so hard to find some glimmer of light, some glimmer of hope.
And this is the only way that we can walk through this...this promise.
That He is always closest to those that are broken.
Let Him dry your tears today.
Let Him wrap His loving arms around you and comfort your deepest pain.
And try, try to remember that they are aware as well, they are in pain, they are suffering and they are broken, shattered even. They feel guilt. They feel remorse. Somewhere deep down they know they have ruined your Christmas. So pray this for them. Don't let the pain win.
God hears your prayers for them. God sees their brokenness. And He WILL heal them in his perfect time.
April 4, 2022 Our prayer for our loved one today:
Psalm 34:4,6-7,18-19 NIV [4] I sought the Lord, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears. [6] This poor man called, and the Lord heard him; he saved him out of all his troubles. [7] The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him, and he delivers them. [18] The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. [19] The righteous person may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from them all;
Lord, thank you that you hear our cries and are close to us when we are broken into a million pieces. Lord, we pray this morning as well that you would stay close to (our loved one) who is brokenhearted and that you will deliver (him/her) from all of (his/her) fears.

God With Us
Yesterday....
A day that for so many of you may have been crushing. A day filled with unmet expectations and dreams that did not come to pass for your family.
Another day of prayers yet to be answered.
Yet we rejoice in the power of the cross.
We are pressed but not crushed.
We are perplexed, but not despairing.
We are persecuted, yet not abandoned.
We are struck down but not destroyed.
Because of the hope that we have this hope. The hope that none of us have been forsaken.
May you be filled with the hope of His promise today.
May your loved one be drawn to the hope of the light of the World, given for us.
Emanuel, God with us.
April 3, 2022 Our prayer for Our Loved One Today
2 Corinthians 4:7-10 TPT [7] We are like common clay jars that carry this glorious treasure within, so that the extraordinary overflow of power will be seen as God's, not ours. [8] Though we experience every kind of pressure, we're not crushed. At times we don't know what to do, but quitting is not an option. [9] We are persecuted by others, but God has not forsaken us. We may be knocked down, but not out. [10] We continually share in the death of Jesus in our own bodies so that the resurrection life of Jesus will be revealed through our humanity.
Father God, we come to you today with our broken dreams, shattered hearts and promises that have not yet come to pass. Lord, the weight of the burdens we carry are heavy. Yet, because of who you are we have an extraordinary overflow of your power, the power of your love, that runs in and through us. Lord, we ask today that you would fill (our loved one) with that same abundance of power that only comes from your love for us. Lord, we know that (our loved one) is experiencing every kind of pressure today. Lord, hold (him/her) up so (he/she) would not be crushed. We know that (our loved one) may feel like giving up today. Give (him/her) supernatural strength so quitting is not an option. We understand that (our loved one) may be experiencing the consequences of unjust acts by others. We ask that you would make your presence known to (him/her) so that (he/she) knows that you have not forsaken (him/her). Lord, the power of your death give us strength. Today we draw on that power to intercede on behalf of (our loved one). We pray for your grace to cover each one of us today. In your son’s name we pray. Amen

His Gives Strength
Day in and day out, it can become harder to find peace.
Fear of relapse.
Sadness from loss.
Disappointment from unmet expectations.
Extreme busyness (sometimes to numb the pain).
So today, I claim these verses over my life. I claim these verses over my loved one’s life.
And I pray this over each of you who are struggling today.
May you be filled today with the gift of supernatural strength and peace that only He can give us
April 2, 2022 Our Prayer for our Loved One today:
Psalm 29:11 NIV[11] The Lord gives strength to his people; the Lord blesses his people with peace.
Abba daddy, we come to You this morning weak, tired and full of anxiety and turmoil because we know that our loved ones are wounded, lost and exhausted. Lord, we know that You are the only source of true healing, true freedom. Father God, we ask today that you would give strength to (our loved one) today, because we know that (our loved one) is Your precious child. We pray that You, in all of your love and mercy, pour out a special blessing of peace over (our loved one) as (he/she) struggles through this day. You are the author and giver of life. Lord, we pray today that (our loved one) would choose life. We believe, in faith, that your promise will come to be and we step in to your perfect peace for us today as well. We pray this in Your son’s precious name. Amen

Perfect Peace
2000 years ago a child was born.
He came to bring us hope.
He came to bring light into the darkness of our lives.
He came to show us the path of peace.
That's what this holiday is about my friends.
No matter what your situation...
No matter your circumstances...
You don't have to sit in the darkness and in the shadow of death.
Let Him wrap you up today in His light and in His perfect peace.
April 1, 2022 Our prayer for our loved on today:
Luke 1:78-79 NLT [78] Because of God's tender mercy, the morning light from heaven is about to break upon us, [79] to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, and to guide us to the path of peace."
Father God, we thank you today that you are a God of tender mercy. You gave us a sunrise today, the morning light. And Lord we believe that your Holy light is about to break on (our loved one).

Immeasurable Grace
The weight you are carrying….
It’s not yours to carry.
The burdens that you are holding on to…
Are not yours to bear.
But grace…
That measureless grace.
That is what is waiting for each of us…
If we are willing to lay it at the foot of the cross.
March 31, 2022 Our prayer for our Loved One today:
Psalm 55:22 TPT [22] So here's what I've learned through it all: Leave all your cares and anxieties at the feet of the Lord, and measureless grace will strengthen you.
Merciful Father, we sit at your feet today bearing the full weight of the burdens we are carrying. The load is heavy. Too heavy for us to manage on our own. Lord, we know that the only way we are going to continue to climb this mountain is if we hand this load off to you. Father, we release all of our cares, all of our anxieties all of our fears, over to you. Lord, we pray this for (our loved one) as well. (He/she) is suffocating under the weight of the strongholds and difficulties in (his/her) life. We pray for a releasing today. We pray that (our loved one) would let go of all that (he/she) is holding so tightly to, the things of this world that are of no use to (him/her). Those things that hold (him/her) back from experiencing the full measure of your glorious grace. Lord, strengthen (him/her). Fill (him/her) with the power that only you can give (our loved one). The God—strength that gives (him/her) the peace to say “Abba Father, I can’t, but you can.” We pray these things in your son’s precious name. Amen

Wrapped in His Love

He knows the burdens you carry...
He knows your pain...He has felt it.
He sees you.
Let him catch your tears today...
Let him breathe healing into your hurting, broken heart...
Let him wrap you up today with His love...
March 30, 2022 Our prayer for our loved one today:
Isaiah 43:1-2,4 NIV
[1] But now, this is what the Lord says---he who created you, Jacob, he who formed you, Israel: “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. [2] When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. [4] Since you are precious and honored in my sight, and because I love you, I will give people in exchange for you, nations in exchange for your life.
Heavenly Father, to be real God, our hearts are breaking today. The pain at times, can be unbearable. But You, You Lord are the one and only who can heal our hurting heart. Today we cling to your promises. Lord, because you created (our loved one), you formed (him/her) we need not fear. You have redeemed (our loved one). You have summoned (our loved one) by name and (he/she) is Yours! Lord we believe today in your promises that when (our loved one) passes through the deep waters, that You will be with (him/her) and when (our loved one) is drowning in the river of life, it will not sweep over (him/her). Lord we believe that even when (our loved one) walks through the fire, that You will protect (him/her) and not allow (him/her) to be burned. Lord, we trust that (our loved one) is precious and honored in Your sight and that because you loved (our loved one) so much you gave Your son, Jesus in exchange for (our loved one). You gave Him in exchange for (our loved one's) life. Lord, we are in awe of that sacrifice Lord. We do not take it lightly. And Lord, we pray today that (our loved one) would open (his/her) heart to see You in a very real way and (he/she) would understand in a moment, Your redemption and the abundant life you have waiting for (him/her)! We thank you for all you are doing in the heavenly realms that we can't see. We believe that you are at work in a mighty way. We trust in your deliverance today! We pray this in Jesus precious name. Amen!

There is Grace
The yelling, the shaming, the anger, the chaos. The crazy things I’ve done on this journey in my selfish efforts to change my loved one.
The mistakes along the dusty path.
But there is grace.
My heart’s desire today is that I would become a better version of myself. Walking in love and overflowing with that marvelous grace.
And as I experience the unfolding beauty of all that He gives me, my hope is that I would reflect that to my loved one.
SO that he would experience the miracle of His marvelous grace.
March 29, 2022 Our Prayer for Our Loved One Today:
1 Peter 1:13-15 TPT
[13] So then, prepare your hearts and minds for action! Stay alert and fix your hope firmly on the marvelous grace that is coming to you. For when Jesus Christ is unveiled, a greater measure of grace will be released to you[14] As God's obedient children, never again shape your lives by the desires that you followed when you didn't know better[15] Instead, shape your lives to become like the Holy One who called you.
Almighty Father, we come before you today because you are holy and powerful and loving. We believe that your grace is greater than all of our failures and mis-steps. Lord, we pray on behalf of [our loved one] today, that even now you are molding and preparing [our loved one’s] heart and mind for the glorious unfolding in front of [him/her]. Lord, we pray that you would set [our loved one's] mind on the hope that your grace in Jesus Christ brings. We pray that [our loved one] would let go of the desires that come from living [his/her] old life, a life of pain and suffering. We believe that you have called [our loved one] to become like you in every way. We pray these words in the confidence that they will be full-filled swiftly. In Jesus Holy Name we pray! Amen

I'll Take Your Hand
This morning you may feel lost and alone. Like you are walking through unknown territory. Like you are in a dark maze and keep running into walls at every turn.
I know that feeling so well.
But God says "I'll take the hand of those who don't know the way, who can't see where they're going. I'll be their personal guide!"
Our God loves you so much that He will personally guide when you don't know which way to turn. He'll keep you from going off the path and falling into the ditch.
Just reach out and take his hand. Trust Him. We don’t have to know the way, because He will show us the way.
And I'm praying today that one day soon, our loved ones will look up and reach out and take His hand and let Him lead them out of the lies and confusion of their life.
March 28, 2022 Our Prayer For Our Loved One Today
Isaiah 42:16 Msg. But I'll take the hand of those who don't know the way, who can't see where they're going. I'll be a personal guide to them, directing them through unknown country. I'll be right there to show them what roads to take, make sure they don't fall into the ditch. These are the things I'll be doing for them— sticking with them, not leaving them for a minute."
Abba daddy, I need you today. I am walking through unknown territory and I am lost. I am scared. I feel alone. But Lord, I know that with you I am never alone. I know that you are right there to grab my hand when I don't know the way. And Lord, I am confident that when my grip gets weak, you, in your love, hold on tighter. Lord, help me today to trust you. And Lord, I thank you that you are always beside (our loved one). Lord, (our loved one) is in unknown territory and you promise that you will be right there with (him/her). Lord, show (him/her) the road that (he/she) needs to take. Lord, guide (him/her). Protect (him/her) so that (he/she) doesn't fall into the ditch. Lord, I know that you are with (our loved one). Thank you for your promise that you will stick with (our loved one) and that you won't leave (him/her). And Lord, I pray today that you will guide (our loved one) home. I pray this in your son's precious name. Amen

A Good Work
In the middle of the ugly, the mess, the difficulties it is hard to see God at work.
But each one of us, every one, whether they are in His will at the moment or not, was created for something incredibly special.
He has begun a good work in you.
He has begun a good work in your loved one.
And He promises that He won’t stop pursuing us until the day we go to our eternal home.
I give thanks today for my loved one and for the work God is certainly doing in his life.
March 26, 2021 Our Prayer for Our Loved One Today
Philippians 1:3,6 NLT
[3] Every time I think of you, I give thanks to my God. [6] And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns.
Abba Daddy, we come to you this morning, feeling tired, feeling sad, feeling angry, sometimes with our loved one, but often with ourselves. We know we are called to love. We know we are called to give thanks. And today, that is hard for me. I can't do this on my own Lord. So fill me with Your love and grace so that every time I think of (our loved one) I WILL give thanks to God for him/her. Lord, I am so grateful that you chose (our loved one) specifically for me. Lord, I AM certain that you, the God of the universe who is always, always good, is already beginning to do a good work in (our loved one) and that You won't quit, You won't stop until (our loved one) is complete in You. We are grateful that we can fully trust You. We pray in your son's holy name. Amen.

I Will Live!
What do we speak over our loved one’s life?
Do we live in constant fear of death and meditate on those dark thoughts? Do our actions and words prove our thinking?
Let’s speak as if...
Let’s pray as if...
I will live!
My loved one will live!
I choose life!
March 25, 2022 Our prayer for Our Loved One today:
Psalm 118:17 NASB I will not die, but live, And tell of the works of the LORD.
Father God, I admit that I walk in fear most days. Fear of losing that which is most precious to me. Fear of losing my dreams. Fear of not measuring up. Fear of death. Lord, today I call out the truth of your words in my life and in my loved ones life. Lord, I will not allow my circumstances to overcome me. I will not die, I will live. And today I pray for (our loved one). I claim with power and authority life over (him/her). Lord, (our loved one) will not only live but live to tell of your glorious works in (his/her) life. Lord I believe with my whole being that as it is written, so it shall become. I pray this with confidence in your son’s precious name. Amen.

And I will pray that into my loved ones precious life today as well.
March 24, 2022 Our prayer for our Loved One today:
Jeremiah 17:7-8 TLB[7] But blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord and has made the Lord his hope and confidence. [8] He is like a tree planted along a riverbank, with its roots reaching deep into the water-a tree not bothered by the heat nor worried by long months of drought. Its leaves stay green, and it goes right on producing all its luscious fruit.
Father God, thank you for Your word and that we can fully trust it. Thank you that You give us visions and pictures of what will come to be. Lord, today I will picture (our loved one) as You picture (him/her). Lord we pray with our whole being that (our loved one) will come to trust in You and that (he/she) will find (his/her) hope and confidence in You alone.

He Will Rescue
A family wondering where their child is, because they haven’t heard from him in months.
A grandma, raising her grandson, without money for groceries.
A couple, dropping their child off at rehab for the 9th time, hoping this time it works.
A mama, just last night, calling the police on her own child because he pulled a gun on her.
A family learning yesterday that their child is gone forever.
These are the things that some of you are facing today. And you are wondering how you are going to go on, or even if God exists.
He IS there...
And he wrote these words filled with so much HOPE just for you today, just for your loved one today.
Simple words full of the power to sustain us.
He will rescue you my friend...
He will carry you through this day.
March 23, 2022 Our prayer for our loved one today:
Isaiah 46:4 NIV
[4] I am he, I am he who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you.
Lord you are HE! You are the great I am. You are the One who loves us and we thank you because you are FULLY trustworthy. Abba Father, sustain us today. Give us the strength to walk through this day in Your peace, Your joy, Your power. Lord, you know (our loved one), for you created (him/her). We ask that you carry (our loved one) through this day. Watch over (him/her), protect (him/her). And sustain (our loved one). Give (him/her) this day, (his/her) daily bread. Meet (his/her) needs whatever they are.

Lord, we ask for your life saving intervention today. We pray this in your Son's precious name.

Give Thanks
I remember those days...
When in my mind there was just nothing to give thanks for.
But God’s word says, as a man thinks, so he will become.
Today simply stop.
Stop what you are doing.
Clear your mind.
And give thanks.
Even if you don’t feel like it. Even if you can’t think of anything to be thankful for. The fact that your God, the God of the universe created you and created your loved one...
Is enough.
Because you are enough.
March 22, 2022 Our prayer for Our Loved One Today;
1 Thessalonians 1:2 TPT We are grateful to God for your lives and we always pray for you.
Lord, we sit at your feet today searching. Searching for answers, searching for resolution, searching for peace. Lord, we know that peace only comes when we practice gratitude in our hearts. Lord, today I am grateful. I am grateful for (our loved one’s) life. I am grateful that you created (him/her) perfectly, for such a time as this. I am honored to be a part of (our loved one’s) life, if not in physical presence at this moment, through the power of my prayers. Lord, I commit today to continue to pray and give thanks for (our loved one) until the day we see you face to face. We pray in your son’s holy name. Amen

From Darkness to Light
I think almost every person who has ever struggled with addiction or depression or anxiety or has walked through the dark valley and is on the other side, would read this and say...yes! This was my experience.
He will meet us in our deepest anguish when we cry out to him...
He will rescue us from the deep waters...
And He will bring us to a spacious place, a place of a kind of freedom that we could have never imagined.
He turns our darkness into light.
March 21, 2022 Our prayer for our loved one today:
2 Samuel 22:7,17-18,20,29 NIV [7] “In my distress I called to the Lord; I called out to my God. From his temple he heard my voice; my cry came to his ears. [17] “He reached down from on high and took hold of me; he drew me out of deep waters. [18] He rescued me from my powerful enemy, from my foes, who were too strong for me. [20] He brought me out into a spacious place; he rescued me because he delighted in me. [29] You, Lord, are my lamp; the Lord turns my darkness into light.
Lord, today we call out to you on behalf of (our loved one). Lord hear our voice, hear our cry for (our loved one).

May You Walk In Victory!
Mornings are always a time when I reflect on all the good in my life, all the blessings that our gracious God has lavished on us. And it’s always a time for me to pray those blessings over others.
As you pray this prayer for your loved one today, know that I am praying it over you all.

My Eyes are Fixed on You
Recently I got a phone call. You know the kind. One of those SOS calls. And my natural instinct was to want to get my hands in the mix and "fix" things. My will be done, right?
And then I realized that I had taken my eyes off of the one who truly can fix this situation. Fear, worry, the need to take control, the need to fix, the depression that can come when things don't go our way...
These are ALL things that occur when we forget who is really God.
He is...
And I am not.
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.
March 18, 2022 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.

You Are Set Apart
You may need to pray this today because you need to remember how precious the hard to love are...
Yesterday may have been hard. Yesterday your heart may have been broken. Yesterday you may have shattered.
But God knows you. And He has set you apart. And he has appointed you for such a time as this.
And just as he has set you apart, he has set your loved one apart.
Thanking God that He loves perfectly. And learning to love like Him.
March 17, 2022 Our prayer for our loved one today:
Jeremiah 1:5 NIV
[5] “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you...
Lord, thank you. Thank you that You are the God of the universe and the God of the smallest organism and the God of (my loved one). Lord I thank you that you created (our loved one) perfectly and wonderfully. I thank you that before (he/she) was even conceived You KNEW (him/her). Lord thank you that (our loved one) is set apart. You have a plan. You have a purpose for (his/her) life. You have appointed (our loved one) to do specific things for your kingdom. Lord, I pray that (our loved one) would, through something or someone, see you today. That (he/she) would experience Your love. And that today would be the day (he/she ) would begin to understand how much You love (him/her). We pray this in Your son's precious name. Amen!

You Right Hand Saves
Today, for some of you reading this, it's hard to simply breathe let alone try to fake it through your day. I understand. I have walked that path.
My prayer for you today is that you will press into HIS light. I PRAY that you will feel his love wrap you up.
And our hearts cry is that our loved ones would somehow, someway, through a divine appointment discover how much God loves them and they would be strengthened by that love.
He has a perfect plan for your life. He has a perfect plan for your loved one's life. Hold on to the hope of that truth.
March 15, 2022 Our prayer for our loved one today:
Psalm 138:7-8 NLT
[7] Though I am surrounded by troubles, you will protect me from the anger of my enemies. You reach out your hand, and the power of your right hand saves me. [8] The LORD will work out his plans for my life- for your faithful love, O LORD, endures forever. Don't abandon me, for you made me.
Lord, today we begin this prayer grateful because we know that we can trust you. Because of your love for us we are always filled with hope. Your word says that in this world we WILL have troubles and today we are surrounded by trouble and (our loved one) is surrounded by trouble. Lord, protect (our loved one) from the enemies that entangle (him/her). We ask that you reach out your right hand and with the power that only you possess, that you save (our loved one). Lord, we believe that you have a special plan for (our loved one’s) life and even now, in the midst of darkness you are working out that perfect plan because of your great love for (our loved one). Abba Daddy, you created (our loved one) perfectly and wonderfully, so we trust that in Your great love. We know you have not abandoned (our loved one) and we wait on You expectantly for our prayers to be answered in Your son's precious name! Amen

Made New!
Not long ago I was talking to a mom, so much like myself. Where the deep wounds of our past drove us to behave a certain way in the here and now.
Needing love.
Needing control.
Needing justification.
Needing validation.
Needing to atone for our sins or the sins that were perpetrated on us in our past.
Because we didn’t believe that we were worthy.
Because we didn’t believe that we could be completely healed.
Because we didn’t believe that we were “enough.”
But in Him, my friends..you are more than enough.You have been made new! Nothing in your past justifies OR holds you back.If you want to be completely free, believe this one thing today.
You have been made new!
And this same truth, this same transformation is waiting for our loved ones. It will not be overdue a single day.
March 13, 2022 Our prayer for our loved one today:
2 Corinthians 5:17,19 NLT[17] This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun! [19] For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people's sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.
Oh Lord our Lord, what a glorious God you are! You have given us an amazing gift. The gift of new life in You. We pray today for this revelation in [our loved one]. Because of your death on the cross, we believe that [our loved one] can become a new creation through you. [His/her] old life will be completely gone and [his/her] new life will begin. What a day that will be. Lord, for those of us who love you and have already received this gift, we request of you today that [our loved one] would once and for all be reconciled with you. We believe this day of reconciliation will come in your perfect timing and ask Lord that it would come quickly. Lord we thank you for your gift of rebirth through Christ! In Jesus name we pray. Amen!
