Gracious God, thank you for allowing me to come into Your presence this day. I am still so amazed that You allow me to come before You. I know it is only by Christ blood that I can. It amazes me that You made the sacrifice so I could come before You. There is nothing that I could have ever given to make this possible. I am humbled by this fact. I ask that You the heart of my prayers today. Spirit may You communicate to the Father that which I can not put into words.

Open my eyes so that I may see. Open my hears that I my hear. Open my mind so that I may understand. I have so many things swirling around in my head. Filter out that which is not of You. Remove the fog that comes from Satan.

Grant peace and joy to Angie and the boys today. May today be a great day for them. May they have fun together. May the boys behave. Grant Angie the wisdom, patience and strength she needs. You are and amazing and awesome God. I praise You for my family. I praise you that Anthony's Adoption in to our family is now complete. May we grow into the family You want us to be.

I praise you for the 3 I had last night. I am thankful for how You provide. Thank you for the lesson. May You ignite a passion for the lost in their hearts. Open their eyes to see people in ways they have never seen them before. Help them to see their pain, their lostness, their confusion, and their need for Your love.

May the plans Kelly and I work on be Your plans. May You guide the hearts and minds of those in leadership towards You and Your vision. Spirit I ask that You come in great power and might upon this church. Stir the hearts of the people. Turn them towards the Father in a way they have known before. Clean my heart of all that separates me from where I supposed to be.

I know that I will not and cannot lose the Spiritual Battle I am in. You are with me and that is all that I need for victory. I claim and take hold of this promise You have given to Your people and Your church. I claim it for UBC. I claim it for Angie. I claim it for Kelly. I claim it for Vicky. I claim it for all of our leaders. Open our eyes like You open the eyes of Elisha's servant. Helps us to see Your army all around us.

I submit these words to You in Christ Name. Amen!
