We ask You, Father...


Father, we come to You today thanking You for Your grace, Your peace, and Your mercy that's available to all who ask. Just this morning in Your Word, You reminded me that you will generously pour out Your riches upon all who ask... We're asking for that generous outpouring, Father. Not necessarily monetarily, but riches that money can't buy -- peace, mercy, grace, true heart-penetrating joy, wisdom, strength, your anointing.

We think of families who are grieving the loss of loved ones in the attacks those years ago. Comfort them today, Father as only You can. Protect our troops (I call Jack out by name, Father), and especially those on foreign soil; guide and direct our government; send Your Spirit to abide in their midst. We put them, our country, our lives - our children's lives, the future generations - all in Your hands... Your trustworthy hands.

Thank you for being GOD! Omnipotent, omniscient, the Alpha and Omega, the Everlasting Father, THE PRINCE OF PEACE!

As we write today and go about our daily activities, Father, we ask you to guide our thoughts. Let the words of our mouths and the meditations of our hearts be acceptable in Your sight, oh Lord, our strength and our REDEEMER... In Jesus' precious, holy, name above all names...
