A Prayer for Your Journey

Help us, Jesus.

Make us sensitive to

your will,

your way,

your words.

“God blesses those who are poor and realize their need for him, for the Kingdom of Heaven is theirs. ~Matthew 5:3, New Living Translation

The prayers have been prayed.

The praise has been proclaimed.

What else is there but to be silent?

Whisper, Holy Spirit, in the silence.

Dry the tears we have yet to cry trying to be strong.

Please. We cannot do this alone.

Joy of the Lord, be our strength.

This journey is not for the faint of heart, but for the pure in heart.

We shall see God.

We will see You in the "by and by" when the morning comes.

But in the meantime give us the Jesus we need today.

The one who will walk with us and talk with us and tell us we are his own.

Let the joy we share as we tarry with Him be as no other has ever known.

Savior, we share with you our joy... and pain.

We embrace you in fellowship... and suffering.

It doesn't matter who they say you are.

It matters who we say you are:

"Pain in my body - meet my Jesus.

Weariness in my soul - meet my Jesus.

Up one minute, down the next. Jesus.

Bank account,

job,

friends,

foes,

allow me to introduce you to my Jesus.

If I am happy or sad, he's still Jesus.

Loved or hated? He's still Jesus.

Jesus, hold me close on this rollercoaster called 'life'.

You are the Son of the Living God."

Father, you said we were going all the way.

How can we go except our King be with us?

Be not dismayed whate’er betide,

God will take care of you;

beneath his wings of love abide,

God will take care of you.

God will take care of you,

through every day, o’er all the way;

he will take care of you,

God will take care of you.

~“God Will Take Care of You” by Civilla D. Martin; The United Methodist Hymnal, No. 130.

Be with us as you were with Moses!

Fight for us and guide us to do our part.

And when there is nothing left for us to do, nothing more that we can give,

Teach us to be still and know that you are God.

Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you. ~1 Peter 5:7 NLT

We will not stop. We will not relent. We will not give up.

We're going all the way. All the way with Jesus.

If you were blessed today, give us a heart!
