Evening Prayer – 24 July 2015

Lord, thank you for family… for friends… for the blessings of relationships
You have blessed me in so many incredible ways…
Family in Minnesota… in Colorado… in Alabama… in Florida… in places all around the world

When life is sometimes a struggle
When we are not sure what is up and what is down

At those times, you reassure us
At those times, you comfort us
At those times, you remind us

You remind us that we are never alone
You remind us by walking with us through our family and friends
You reveal to us the length and breadth and height and depth of your love

Lord, at those times when we doubt
Lord, at those times when we wonder
Thank you, for your grace-filled reminders that we are not alone

Thank you, Lord, for the family we are born into
Thank you, Lord, for the family you give to us
Thank you, Lord, for your love, grace, and mercy

Dona Nobis Pacem
Grant Us Peace

A wee prayer from a very contented Padre to you this night… savor and value those God has placed into your lives…
