Praying from the Heart

I have been going through Genesis 1 with the ladies, and I wanted to share a prayer god has put on my heart. 

Father, authority of all things, I pray that I will remember the beauty in your creation everyday. You are Lord of heaven and Lord of this earth, and I pray I will not forget to seek your power over my life. I do not want to take you for granted and not forget how great you truly are. I seek your perfect will for this earth and for my life. I am saddened we cannot experience this perfect will on this earth and look forward to the day when I can. I pray that you will meet our daily physical needs while we are in Haiti. I ask for restoration in our relationship and forgiveness of my sins and judgement among others. I ask for help to forgive those that hurt and wrong me. I owe you everything and want nothing to stand in the way of our relationship. Keep me from temptations to sin and judge others as this is not your will. I depend on your direction and ask you to protect me from satan in all aspects of my life. Thank you for your saving grace. Please help me to be graceful toward every person I come into contact with. I seek to be more like you. I love you.

Amen

Please continue to pray for me as I teach the ladies of the house and at the children's home English and the bible. I will also start teaching the children at the children's home English and the bible. They are all so excited about this and so am I.

We have also enjoyed some familiar faces being here this week. Pat, Peyton and Scott have all been here from our church, LifePoint, for the last few days, and we have definitely enjoyed having them and gaining insight and wisdom from them.
