Gracious Heavenly Father! I praise You for the rain. I praise You for the newness of Spring. I praise You for the regrowth and of the Earth. I praise You for the renewal in me. I praise You for the renewal in Angie. I praise You for our family. You have blessed with me with so much more than what I deserve. I humbled by your provision. I am humbled with being able to even come in to Your presence. As best I can today I lay my life, my will, my desires, my everything at your feet. I know no other way to bow before You. I lay my spirit before You. May You find my gifts acceptable despite the fact that I know in and of themselves they are. My gifts are not holy and unacceptable unless they are washed in the blood of the Lamb. Through His blood I come to You with great boldness to worship, praise and petition.

There are so many hurting souls in Macomb and WIU. There are so many people who long for Your love and yet they do not seek You. I desire to see their lives changed. I desire to see many lives changed. Help me to be both patient and expectant. Show me how to expect You to do great and be patient in waiting for You to do that. Help me to see the "small things" as great and mighty things. You know all of the situations and relationships that are surrounding me. You know their unique needs and concerns. Use me to speak Your truth in to them. Use me to change them. Use me to point them towards You and may I step back and let You do what You do so well, fix our broken lives and relationships.

You are awesome and mighty. I know You will do great things. You are doing great things. I ask that You will show this truth to those who need to hear it most.
