Dec 30

Father
we are coming to a close to this current year.  I hope that we can close these feelings of loss and anger and frustration also.   It's kind of overwhelming to have to deal with.  I simply struggle with letting it all go.

While on the topic of struggling.  Please look after mama.  She isn't doing well health wise and she seems so sad and depressed lately. I know that it may get worse because the boys have left home.  You know what she is going through with her in-laws that live with her.  Just be there for her and give her a friend she can lean on and trust that will help her through these rough times.

As for her in-laws. Thank you for helping get rid of the anger I have held onto for so long.  I just ask that you bless them and teach them kindness and help them be good to my mama.

Help me to find the place that you have for me.  To be a good wife and mother and to concider them above myself .  In the coming year help me to leave old self ghosts behind so that I may be fruitful and grow.

December 20

Dear Father
Thanks you for this day.  It is a new day with new things to happen.  I am in your awesome hands and I Know you will take care of me.

My heart is on matters that are in your control.  Please look after those that need homes and jobs and food. This time of year is hard to be with out those things.  Thank you for providing for us.

Help me to consentrate on the positives in life instead of the negative. The negative have been grabbing at me and I fear I may be letting them sink their claws in. 
Help me to consentrate on Things that are pure and true and right and trust worthy like you comand us to to in Phillipians 4:8.

December 17

Father
In your infinite wisdom you allowed things to happen the way they did yesterday. I feel disappointed yet relieved.  Relieved because I know I listened to the advice of someone more wise than I am.  Disappointed because things didn't happen as I wanted them to.   I know that you have plans for me and you will not harm me but give me a future and a hope.
I am trusting you  that you will take care of me and lead me to the path that is right. I am simply struggling with understanding and being human.

dec. 15th

Father.
You are great and you know the things we need before we can have the words or thoughts to ask you for them, yet here I sit and I ask you to be with me tomorrow. Please guide me in the right job and the right decisions that will affect the rest of my family.  Be with me as you always are and give me peace that this will be how you decide and take my worry away. 
I am so excited for the future and the possibility to do your work. I feel frightened by that but I know that you were with Gideon as he was afraid.  You helped him to conquer his fear and to trust in you completely. Please do that for me.

part two for Dec. 13th

Lord, you are deffinately my savior. You heard my prayers and you answered swiftly and you gave me the ability to express what was needed in a manner that I don't have to feel badly about. You held my hand and I am so grateful.
I only hope that I can learn from the experience and continue to grow.  I ask that you help me to put the needs and wishes of the people that matter before those of myself.

i can't seem to win for losing.  i know its all in your hands.  but im struggling.  i didn't mean to disregard his wishes and I am not trying to cause him any grief.  I don't know what to do to to make amends with this. Lord please give me the knowledge and the ability to do the right thing.

Dec 6 2010

Dear Father
Thank you for hearing my prayers and getting me through Saturday after the boss went nuts friday. You allowed me to remain calm and professional and do a great job.  You are awesome and everything is to your glory. The bitter cold outside didn't feel so bitter knowing I allowed you to do what you do.
I continue to ask for patience and remembrance that everything happens in your time and not my own.  You know how deeply I want to join and I know you are faithful.  There are tests that must be finished before I can move onto the new material.   I just thank you for this day and the sun and the laughter that comes from you.
