Whew Lord! What a morning I’ve had. I got to work and realized that (due to kids) I had chocolate all over my pants which meant I had to go back home. Get home, change clothes and stop by Panera Bread for breakfast. The young lady made my coffee wrong and then she filled it up too far which means I spilled a little getting in the car. I get to the gate, at the job and my badge breaks. Oh, did I mention I ate an entire pecan cinnamon roll on the way to work? Again, I say whew! So, I park and as I am about to get out the car, the song played “Prayer will fix it, yes prayer will fix it!” So, I prayed and I came to realize that stuff happens. Ironic isn’t it based on the last 2 devotionals? Nonetheless, the message is prayer so I stop this morning or afternoon to pray but not just for me but for us. “Our Father in Heaven whose name is Holy and who’s will shall be done on Earth as it is done in Heaven. Father, as I come petitioning your throne, I must first thank you. Thank you for the storms because they build our strength. Thank you for our pain because it improves our praise. Thank you for our sick days because it makes us appreciate our well ones. Thank you for allowing our good days to overshadow our bad ones. Thank you for the doors that have been shut, the no that have been spoken or the denial we’ve received because afterwards comes the open doors, the yes and the approval. Thank you for what we go through because it makes us grow. Thank you for what we’ve been through because it means we’ve been delivered. Thank you for breaking the chains that had us trapped because it means we’ve been set free. Oh God, somebody is dealing with some pressure that is about to make them give up but I know you are able to send relief. Somebody is dealing with pain they can’t control but I know you are a pain reliever. Somebody is dealing with the death of a loved one, the heartache of someone leaving or the separation from someone they miss but I know you are able to comfort them. God, right now, I come asking you to hear the prayers of your people, deliver those who seek deliverance, provide for those who are suffering, pick up those who have fallen and show yourself to those who seek you. Father, I know you are able to be exactly who we all need at the same time so I ask that you be that for us now. Heal, deliver, set free, stop the tears and hurt, restore joy and hope and give us the strength to endure the test of this world. I trust in you God because I know you to be a man of your word. Do it now God for all of us who need you like only you can. This prayer I submit to you because I know that prayer can fix it every time. Amen”
