Thanks to everyone who were sending those nice poems.
I'd Love to be a Fairy's
Child
Children born of fairy stock
Never need for shirt or frock,
Never want for food or fire,
Always get their heart's desire:
Jingle
pockets full of gold,
Marry when they're seven years old.
Every fairy
child may keep
Two strong ponies and ten sheep;
All have houses, each
his own,
Built of brick, or granite stone;
They live on cherries, they
run wild--
I'd love to be a Fairy's child.
Robert Graves
"Fairies
and Fusiliers" (1918)
Please take a moment to relax your
mind and humble your heart to focus on Christ. Allow God, to be the only person
on your mind while you read this prayer. If we can take the time to read long
jokes, stories, etc., we should give the same respect to this prayer.
Friends that pray together, stay together. Let's pray...
Dear
Lord,
I thank You for this day.
I thank You for my being able to see
and to hear this morning.
I'm blessed because You are a forgiving God and an
understanding God.
You have done so much for me and You keep on blessing
me.
Forgive me this day for everything I have done, said or thought that was
not pleasing to you.
I ask now for Your forgiveness.
Please keep me safe
from all danger and harm.
Help me to start this day with a new attitude and
plenty of gratitude.
Let me make the best of each and every day to clear my
mind so that I can hear from You.
Please broaden my mind that I can accept
all things.
Let me not whine and whimper over things I have no control
over.
Let me continue to see sin through God's eyes and acknowledge it as
evil.
And when I sin, let me repent, and confess with my mouth my wrongdoing,
and receive the forgiveness of God.
And when this world closes in on me, let
me remember Jesus' example - to slip away and find a quiet place to
pray.
It's the best response when I'm pushed beyond my limits.
I know that
when I can't pray, You listen to my heart.
Continue to use me to do Your
will.
Continue to bless me that I may be a blessing to others.
Keep me
strong that I may help the weak.
Keep me uplifted that I may have words of
encouragement for others.
I pray for those that are lost and can't find their
way.
I pray for those that are misjudged and misunderstood.
I pray for
those who don't know You intimately.
I pray for those that will delete this
without sharing it with others.
I pray for those that don't believe.
But I
thank you that I believe.
I believe that God changes people and God changes
things.
I pray for all my sisters and brothers.
For each and every family
member in their households.
I pray for peace,love and joy in their homes that
they are out of debt and all their needs are met.
I pray that every eye that
reads this knows there is no problem, circumstance, or situation greater than
God.
Every battle is in Your hands for You to fight.
I pray that these
words be received into the hearts of every eye that sees them and every mouth
that confesses them willingly.
This is my prayer.
In Jesus' Name,
Amen.
