Help me to know

Help me to know

How to forgive

Help me to know

How to let go

Help me to know

That healing is possible

Help me to know

That You are with me

And that I can truly forgive.

Amen

Heal me

Lord heal me

Lord touch my life

Lord renew me

Lord give me the gift of life 

Now and forever

Amen

The brokenheartedness

I carry the broken-heartedness within me.

It lies heavy in my being.

So many countless losses

So many tortured moments.

So broken on every level for decades.

Yet still there is love

There are blessings,

There is joy

There is progress

Yet always in the context

Of never ending pain

And multiple daily inabilities 

Unimaginable 

To most

Invisible

Even to those who care.

Peace

Lord,

Let your Peace

Enter now

And here remain.

Amen

Pray with me

Lord,  pray with me

So that when I pray

I pray fully

In the Power of

Your Holy name

Lots Jesus Christ

Amen

God everywhere

 

This is where God and I meet! The fields, the sky are my cathedral. It's here I find the deepest peace, answers, ideas, songs, inspiration, insights...in the silence.

Comfort us

 

Comfort us in our frailty and weakness

Shine Your great light oh Lord,

To guide us through every trial

Amen

Blessings

 

May we notice the many blessings in our lives

The many tender gifts we have been given by You

To lighten our burdens and lift us up into light.

Amen

Prayer of Light

 Let us ask that Christ will shine His light in our lives this day and always, bringing us the gifts of the Spirit to bless us and everyone we know and pray for.

Let us ask that beauty, Love and Truth be illumined in the world and lead to hope and transformation, 

Let us ask to experience His Light and feel the radiance of His healing Light touch our lives. 

Let us celebrate that Christ is the Light of the world and that Light is with us now and always. Amen,

Fill me

Lord

Let Your Light 

Fill me

Lord

Let Your light

Illuminate my path

Lord

Let Your light

Transfigure my life

Amen

Can You Feel It: a new video song

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQDRil_KVcI

Greg has made this beautiful song and recorded it. The guitar playing is exquisite. I have drawn the simple pictures with one finger on my iPad. We hope it blesses you. I really love this song and the healing prayerful words that come from Greg’s heart.

Light of Life

Today I have been contemplating on Christ as the Light of the world and what it means for me. It is a wonderful Truth that brings me an inner joy that is hard to describe. This is a central Truth to knowing and being in relationship with Jesus: that he is Light. What does this actually mean? It probably means different things to us all. What is important that Christ's Light is pure and leads us to Truth. It shows us the Way to Love and as Light is energy it is a very real medium for feeling and knowing and truly experiencing the presence of God.

When we do not know what to do, we can ask Christ to come closer - to shine His Light for us. We can ask that the Truth of a situation be illumined for us by His Presence. We can hold people and situations, ourselves even, in this very real presence of Light and feel it make a difference to our lives and those of the people we pray for. We can ask to see Christ more clearly in our daily life.

We may experience His Light differently, but we can be sure of His Presence and that His Light is real. We can know that we will be touched in some radiant way by asking Christ into our lives. The impact may be subtle, perhaps a lifting of feeling, a strengthening of spirit, a clarity of vision, a lighting of the way to go, or more dramatic - a radical answer to prayer, a miracle of healing and hope, a transformation of a situation beyond our wildest dreams.

In darkness

In darkness

Let there be light

In hopelessness

Let there be hope

In pain

Let us find relief

In doubt

Let truth be revealed.

Amen

The Bleakest place

 

The Bleakest place is where the Light of Hope dawns. It is light in the wilderness, unexpected, unimaginable, that saves us from despair and death.

Difficulties and disappointments

 

Help us find hope, when hope seems to have gone

Help us remain close to you

Despite all difficulties and disappointments.

Amen

Too much to bear

 

Lord, when it all gets too much to bear

Please help us know that you are still there

With us

And you understand.

Amen

May God

May God

Who is all good

Bring all goodness

To bear

On my life

And my needs.

Amen

Trust

Lord I trust you

Deliver me

Lord I trust You

Save me

Lord I trust You

Help me

Lord I trust you

Guide me

Lord I trust You

Heal me.

Amen

Hope

 Lord, let your Hope shine bright in me.

Amen

Help us know

 Help us know

With abdolute certainty

That you are here with us

Now and ever present,

The radiant Light of Life.

Amen

Let us Be Still

 

In stillness we can find greater peace, take a moment to focus on God with you, push all fears, doubts and pressures away. Find Light and a renewed sense of self and hope for the day,

Amen.

Unable to pray

 WHEN YOU FEEL UNABLE TO PRAY

Thank you to everyone who prays for us. I have written a short prayer:

When you feel unable to pray or lack confidence and clarity in your prayers due to the enormity of your circumstances, trust and hold faith in those who can pray for you.

Remember you are loved and precious and God surrounds you always with His perfect light. Therefore give thanks and hold on to the truth of His Love. Amen

Remember to pray

 

When things are stressful, remember to pray.

Turn to Prayer

Let us turn to prayer and communion with each other and the Lord, when life is hard and difficulties continually present themselves. Let us beg God to free us from distress and comfort us in our limitations, help us find blessings and hope and a way through every struggle to a brighter place of peacefulness where connection is possible so that we can rise above all the trials that challenge us daily. Amen.
