Our Daily Bread, Proverbs 29
God, thank You for my conversation with Dave, and specifically for the reminder that waiting a bit before discussing something with Meagan that is frustrating is wisdom. I pray that You’ll help me to be gracious with her, and not impatient and unkind. Lord, i pray that You’ll make me a better husband in the small things. I pray that You’d help me to remember to do these little things occasionally rather than just going about my own business. Thank You that Meagan is so gracious to me.
Lord, i pray again for Keith. Like i said to Dave, mental illness is in my mind such a big barrier, but to You it’s nothing. Lord, i pray that You would cast out any demons in Keith’s life, and that You would restore a right spirit within him.
Lord, i also want to pray for Kellie and for my relationship with her. Lord, i know that You are making her into an incredible person. i pray first of all for her, that You will bless her and keep her. I also pray that You would gently teach her about humility, generosity, kindness, and all those soft intangibles that a young Godly woman should have. I pray for Vic and Cindy that You would give them the wisdom to help guide her in the right direction. I pray that You’ll be with her relationship with Jackson, and that if he’s the one that they would just fall deeply madly in love, but for all the right reasons. Lord, i also want to pray for my end of the relationship. I know that i can barely stand her, and i also know that a lot of it is because she reminds me of me. First of all, thank You for putting people in my life who could put up with me when i was that way. Lord, i just pray that You would give me a compassion for her, and not be so al judgmental and hateful. I just want to love her unconditionally the way a family should, and not shun her. Lord, i pray that You would also use the compassion that You give me to open up opportunities to talk to her about whatever You would like me to tell her. Lord, this relationship really is a significant burden in my life and probably hers as well. I pray that You would completely turn it around. I trust that You can do it and will do it. I love You!
