Losing myself

Father, today my mother made a good point. i need to lose my sense of everything being about me before i am ready to be a mother. i ask today that you start working in me to make me less self centered. please eradicate this disease of self pity that i find spreading inside me. please renew me with your joy every day.remind me to look for ways to bless others in my life and keep me form burdening everyone with my issues. i ask that you will help me to be productive each day and keep me from idleness. help me to keep my mind active and focused and not allow me to sit around feeling sorry for myself.Really help me to see opportunities to show others your love each and every day and help me to be so full of love and excitement for the thigs going on now that i won't give a thought to what is to come!

Prayer For my Man

Abba, thank you for this beautiful day and all you have planned for it. Thank you for waking me bright and early to serve Scott in a way that was meaningful to him by ironing his shirt. Thank you for blessing me with two wonderful moms who love me and encourage me to know you more! Today is a big day for Scott. Right now he is in a meeting to discuss a job promotion that could really be a big change for us. i ask that you will bless him with peace and confidence in this meeting. i ask that You will shine through in him and that he will be sure of what he wants and needs to say to present himself ad best he can. Father i ask that you will put it upon those who are deciding to give this job to Scott, and that they will give him the salary that he deserves. Father, i ask that you will use this to encourage Scott to continue to do his best to glorify you in his work and to show others he comes in contact with your love.Abba, you know all the reasons that we want him to get this job, and you know our hearts.i thank you for all you bless us with every day.

Positive?

Abba, i took a test. i think it came out positive. it was right after i was talking to you that i looked at it and saw the line. please let it be true. please help the baby to be healthy! please help our little one grow big and strong and prepare us to love him or her and teach her about you.father i also ask that You will fill me with your peace and help me to trust you in all things big and small! father right now i am afraid. part of me is afraid that i am not really pregnant, the other part is afraid i will lose this baby as well. please cast out this fear and fill it with your perfect peace. i love you abba!

Good To Know

Abba Father, I am so thankful for Your love and kindness towards me. i am thankful for all the times when i have worked myself into a tizzy about something and you have pulled me into your arms and reminded me that i don't have to be afraid or anxious. in times like this when so many things seem uncertain and unpredictable it's okay, because You know what's going on now and what will come of it!It's good to know that. It is good to know: * You love me more than i could ever imagine. * you know and have ordained all the events of my life * you have a plan to use my life to bring you glory and me good * you have already decided when our child will be conceived. * You know whether it will be a boy or girl. * You know the outcome of Scott applying for a new job. * You have the strength i don't. * You can heal all hurts * You understand and hear my heart's cries. *nothing is outside of what You can know and do! Thank You For Loving me and making me your child. Help me to now and always wait upon you and trust that all will happen in the way You want it to. Help me to hope in you without anxiety, and enable me to trust your promises. I cannot do this on my own. Please fill me with Your strength in all i do and all i attempt each day, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Make me a better wife, show me the best ways to love my husband. I want to glorify you and show him your love.Abba, i love You more than i can say. help me show you better.
