Precious Father,
We rejoice at the mention of Your Name. Life would be void and meaningless without the indwelling of Your Holy Spirit. We are comforted, guided, instructed and inspired as we rely heavily on the Holy Spirit. We praise You that, "... surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age (Matthew 28:20b). Through the Holy Spirit living within us, we are never alone.
"Since we have these promises, dear friends, let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness out of reverence for God (2 Corinthians 7:1). Help us to seek your forgiveness for the sins that so easily entangle us as often as we seek answers to our petitions, maintaining cleansed lives is that are pleasing to You.
Lord, my own mind cannot recall all of the needs that need brought before Your throne. Touch each heart and make each of our lives a reflection of You. Grant clarity and discernment to all who seek the paths we should pursue. Provide an extra measure of strength and encouragement for all who are weary. May each one seeking employment be blessed with more than just a job - but great opportunities for personal happiness and service to You.
Your ways are not our ways. What may seem like very difficult life experiences to us, may be the very life experience that draws us most near to You and the plans You have for our lives. And there is nothing more important.
We praise you and thank You in Jesus' Name. Amen.
