(Photo of Isabelle at Morning Prayer – Lewannick) Prayer diary for November Monday Lord, show me the path on which you wish me to travel this week. Walk with me along that path. Amen. Tuesday Lord, give me the ability to step out in faith, following your many promptings. Knowing that if I do you will be there with me. Amen Wednesday Lord, protect me from doubts and fear, from anxiety and misunderstandings. Help me to come closer to you, that I might understand the true extent of your love for me. Amen Thursday Lord. Today my thoughts are with the many refugees across the world. I do not know how I can help Lord, but you do. Please show me if there is practical help I can give. I pray for all people who have had to flee their homes, I pray for all the families but especially the children. I pray for the aid workers who are trying to help them and I pray for those who are responsible for this situation. Amen Friday Lord, I pray today for my families and friends. For those who are sick I ask for your healing touch and for those who do not know you ask that you will bless them and soften their hearts that they may be able to receive your love. Saturday Lord I pray for those who have lost loved ones especially ………….. The weekends can be the most lonely of times when memories come flooding in. Embrace and comfort them in your loving arms. Amen Sunday O Lord I pray today for all the families who do not get to spend this day together as a day of rest. Many are separated through no fault of their own, thinking particularly of those in the armed forces who are often away from their loved ones; others who work in hospitals and the emergency services, and aid workers who are miles away from their families. I pray that you will bless them and keep them safe. Amen Thank you to Heather for this month’s prayers.
