Dear Footprintsangel,
You are a loving messenger for God's love, compassion, faithfulness, and everlasting source of eternal life. Your work is mighty and blessed.
I was just reading John, and two things you wrote I had just read. At the last supper, said to His disciples, " My children, I will be with you only a little longer." John 13:33 I paused, thinking how Jesus was saying his grown disciples were his children, yet He says the Father is in Him, and He is in the Father. We as believers are truly the children of God. I remembered this as I read, "my little children".
The second thing you wrote that is similar to what I read is , "I am a Friend now and forever". I read this morning in John 15:15, Jesus said to his disciples, " I no longer call you servants, for a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I have learned from the Father I have made known to you as well."
So, we are indeed His little children, and He is truly our friend. Amen!

Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank you for a new day. Each day is a blessing, and no matter our condition, You find ways to convey your love, compassion, beauty, and peace.
Please be with those suffering, that the Holy Spirit carries them through their time of trial and tribulation. Jesus, when You saw that Mary and Martha, and those who went to comfort them were weeping because of the death of Lazarus, You wept. Even though you knew You would raise Him from the dead after 4 days in his tomb, Your compassion for the suffering of others brought you to tears.
Your compassion for us as human beings is great. We love you and praise Your name.
Amen

Heavenly Father, When things on this earth crush in and cause
us to crumble. You carried us through. When we poured out our
troubles to others and could not find no one to understand,
You carried us. When we falter and lost our way and tries to
put on foot in front of the other, You were the One that carried us.
Now we know not to lean on our own abilities Through My friends and loved ones are dear, You are the One we can completely depend one. We no longer try to be strong, for our strength lies in You. Thank You Lord for scooping down and picking us up, in Your arms and carrying us. Thank You for helping us never to give up. No matter what the circumstances, we praise You for being with us and showing the way. When we are unable to see around the next bend and wonder if there really light at the end of the tunnel, Your light leads the way. We praise You, Father for still carrying us. Someday these trials will be over. We look forward to that day when You carry us once more to be with You in Heaven. In meantime, Father we'll keep trusting, serving and leaning on You. Amen0 -
So beautiful, Footprintsangel. Amen!

Dear Heavenly Father,
Please clear up the insurance matter and lack of proper documentation from the nurse to get my medication again. I know You care for all our needs and, Lord, Your word says You will stand before us and represent us.
Deuteronomy 31:8 The Lord is the one who goes ahead of you: He will be with you, He will not fail you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.
Thank You for Your abiding love, Your compassion that comforts, Your forgiveness when we have fallen short, and the peace You give when, by your command, you calm the storm.
In Jesus' name, amen

Dear Lord, I have a special prayer for our BCO sister Lilly. She is coming up to her reconstruction surgery that she has waited for a long time. Please be with her as she prepares for this important procedure. Bless her medical team and ensure she receives all the special care she needs to come through surgery and heal quickly. Surround her with helpers that can be there for her in the hospital and when she goes home for her recovery. Give her comfort when she feels scared or alone during all this, so that she knows you are with her and watching out for her. You are a merciful God and always there for us in our time of need.
In Jesus name we pray, Amen

Dear Lord,
When You were made flesh and dwelt among us, You prepared us by telling us that in You, we may have peace. You said that in this world, there is trouble. But take heart! You have overcome the world. John 16:33.
We can cast our worries unto You, and You will tell us what to say, just as Moses and Aaron were told what to say by You to the Pharoah to free the Israelites, as Moses had no confidence in his verbal ability, considering himself ," slow of speech and tongue".
Thank you for leading me in what to do about getting my life saving drug. My doctor has no email listed, and I knew I needed to take it to him instead of his nurse to get the problem resolved, as I received a letter of denial from my insurance, saying my diagnosis was not even listed. I wrote a fax instead, in detail, directly to him, and it was once again approved, and my medication sent overnight. Thank you, Lord Jesus, for directing my steps, and leading me in what to say and to whom! I praise Your Holy name!
Dear Lord, our earthly worries can rob us of Your gift of peace. Please let us always remember that You said that Your burden is easy, and your yoke is light. Matthew 11:30 We can lay our problems at the foot of the cross and wait for Your direction.
Please give Lilly strength of spirit, hope and womanly confidence in a restored shape after all is said and done, and let her medical team be excellent. Let her body accept the changes, and keep her from infection or any other complications. Let her be cared for lovingly while she recovers.
In Jesus' name,
Amen

Dear Heavenly Father,
Through all our trials and tribulations, You carry us. You do not promise here on Earth a problem free life.
In Isaiah 45:3 It is written: And I will give you secret treasures hidden in the darkness- secret riches. I will do this so you may know I am the Lord. the God of Israel, who summons you by name.
In our darkness, oh Lord, You have drawn close to us. You give us a thirst for Your presence, and Your word says that You are the living water, and we will never thirst again. You have deepened our compassion in darkness, and have given a peace that surpasses understanding. We have passed Your tests, and not turned our backs on You in bitterness.
A diamond is formed in darkness from coal under great pressure. We are Your treasure. We are under great pressure, under the cloak of the darkness of disease, yet You are doing Your mighty work in us.
In Jesus' name, amen

Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank you for the new day. Some of us are in our beds recovering and resting, some are under active treatment, some are frightened of this illness new to them, some maintain their lives with permanent side effects, some have made peace and will be in Your loving arms soon.
For those without energy, let them be blessed with help from those who have energy, to help them with their daily needs. Please comfort and relieve those that are in physical and/or emotional pain.

Dear Heavenly Father,
Let us always focus outside ourselves, and look toward You, your creation, the lives of other people in need, for this also heals us. It takes our mind away from our problems, and what looked like a mountain yesterday looks like a mole hill today. When it is time for battle, please prepare us.
Let us put on our spiritual armor. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but spiritual principalities. We are not defenseless. We are armed. In Jesus' name, amen
Ephesians 6:11-12 and Ephesians 6:13-17

Dear Heavenly Father,
Help us to forgive those that betray us, and trick us with deceit. Let us lay down our problems at your feet, as to not compound our struggles and have them weaken us. Defend us against enemies who we have done no wrong to. Sustain us through our trials and tribulations, and lift us high above earthly struggles and entanglements, always keeping our eyes fixed on You, Lord.
Give us Your peace, and let us trust in the plans You have for us. Give us patience for that plan to unfold, because we trust that You work for our greater good.
In Jesus' name, amen

Heavenly Father, I love You and am very grateful that whatever situation
I am in, Lord, You are here with me. Thank You for going before me,
standing beside and in front of me, and covering me with Your protective
presence. When I feel danger, You are my Guardian, When I am fighting
for help and a weapon to fight, The Joy of the Lord is my strength, Nehermaih
8:10 and Your word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path. Psalm
119:105) When the tempter is teasing me about life and scaring me, You
deflect his fiery darts. As I fight illness or going through challenges with my
health. You fight for me to regain my health and ease my pain. When my
loved ones and friends go through trials, You, dear Lord, surround them with
Your love and protection. There is are instance when I get anxious and would
like to take things in my own hands with my health, I impatiently want to solve
all my cancer or other challenges. Please give me a firm warning to trust in
You. ( Fear not for I am with You, Be not dismayed, for I am Your God. I will
strengthen you, Yes I will help You, I will uphold you with My righteous right
hand. Isaiah 41:10 ) As I trust in You, my battles become Your. I don't need to
fight them or even worry about them. Thank You Heavenly Father, for Your loving
and taking care of me and fighting my battles. In Jesus name. Amen

Dear Heavenly Father,
Please strengthen us, as the enemy has used our own flesh and blood as a weapon against us.
No weapon formed against you shall prosper. Isaiah 54:17
When our enemy rises up against us, do not leave us defenseless. Give us a spirit of courage.
"Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit', says the Lord of Hosts" Zechariah 4-6
For our spiritual armor is just that: given to us as believers that we may have the helmet of salvation, the shield of faith, girded with a belt of truth, and the sword of the Spirit.The Holy Spirit stirs the living word of God, for discernment, and stirs into rememberance the Holy word for our defense and triumph. (Re: Ephesians 6:11-17)
You give this to us because we may be a peaceful people, but you do not leave us defenseless under the attack of the enemy.
"In all these things, we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us." Romans 8:37
Our faith is our protection and weapon. We are not alone.
"Do not fear them, for the Lord your God is the one fighting for you." Deuteronomy 3:22
Give us strength, courage, and motivation to seek the solution to our medical needs through our medical community.
When Jesus saw him lying there and knew he had been in this condition a long time, he asked him, "Do you want to be well?" John 5:6
Please give us the strength to take action to seek help for our illnesses.
In Jesus' name, amen

Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank you for the new day. All we have is now; we no longer have the past, and You told us not to worry about tomorrow.
Matthew 6:3-4 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
You warned us about troubles, but we can can count on Your good Grace and strength to carry us through .
Jesus, in John 16:33, You said, "I have told You these things so that in me You may have peace. In this world, you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."
In Jesus' name, amen

Dear Heavenly Father,
Sometimes our efforts feel in vain. It is as if we are knitting a sweater, and someone is pulling a thread and unraveling it at the same time. It is with our own strength that we try, but You tell us, "I can do anything in Christ who strengthens me." Philippians 4:13
Please take our anxieties away, when it feels like we take one step forward and two steps back. Let us trust in You always. No matter is too small to present to God.
In Jesus' name, amen

Dear Heavenly Father,
Great are the sacrifices of the apostles and early church believers to spread the word that Jesus is Yeshua, the Messiah prophesied by Moses, in Psalms, and Isaiah, prophesies written that were fulfilled by outside circumstances through the death and resurrection of Christ. These were chosen fearless martres.
Lord, You willingly gave Yourself as a sacrifice so that whoever believes in You and makes You their Lord will have eternal salvation. This is a free gift.
Thank you for the freedom we have to spread the good news without the life threatening percecution that the martres and saints suffered.
Ephesians 2:8-9 'For it is by grace you have been saved, and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God, not by works, should anyone boast."
It is by grace that we are saved because heaven is so holy, that it is written in Romans 3:23 "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."
Thank you Lord, for Your grace, Your love that surrounds and comforts us, that fills our souls with hope, for Your beauty, love, and peace are bountiful. In Jesus' name, amen.
