Help us to deal with unexpected challenges, O God.  May we be patient with the people who are not at fault when others messed up our day.  May we not let those things define the rest of our day.  Help us to roll with the punches and move on rather than let the anger andContinue reading “Prayer for August 10, 2025”

Thank you, God, for the gift of sleeping in and having the ability to have it happen.  I don’t sleep in much and, in fact, almost never sleep beyond 6:00.  But there are times, loving God, when you allow our internal alarm clock to silently hit snooze.  Thank you for those days.  They remind usContinue reading “Prayer for August 9, 2025”

May the world find a way to stop the wars around the world that have become intractable, O God.  There are leaders that need to change their hearts and not enough willing to stand up for peace.  May the people who are in danger of starvation become the priority.  May the hostages in Gaza beContinue reading “Prayer for August 8, 2025”

Help us to trust that more will come and fill our needs in those times. Continue reading “Prayer for August 3, 2025”

I am so grateful, Loving God, for the friends that have been a part of my life.  So many of them were with me for small, but important, times in my life.  They were the childhood friends who were there after my brother died, or the ones who greeted the new kid in school multipleContinue reading “Prayer for August 1, 2025”

On this day in 1971, the Lunar Roving Vehicle was first used to explore the moon.  That era was one where our imaginations soared.   You created us to be creative and inquisitive, O God of all creation.  May we always seek to learn new things, explore new places and imagine the possibilities.  Let usContinue reading “Prayer for July 31, 2025”

On this day in 1965 President Lyndon Johnson signed an amendment to the Social Securities Act that established Medicare and Medicaid.    Healing God, may we always seek to care for those who are ailing.  Let us look for ways to help those who cannot afford what so many of us take for granted inContinue reading “Prayer for July 30, 2025”
