The spirit of this season is just so jolly and bright :) In all the chaos and busyness of this time of year let us not forget the TRUE reason to celebrate! Let us have sweet, loving, joyful, giving spirits like Buddy the elf :) Amen.

God, you are faithful. Thank you that we never walk alone, never once. Ahh your faithfulness is more than I can even comprehend. I am never alone because of your sweet love, every breath is breathed in your grace. Help me to breathe your grace out to others. Bring me comfort in the truth of your faithfulness. I will NOT be overcome! You have brought me so far, and every victory in my life comes from You. I have joy in my heart from your constant powerful presence. I love you, Amen.

God, give me the patience to wait for your timing. I will live for You. You have someone out there for me, who has a heart so strong and passionate for You. He will be exactly what I need and lead me even closer to You. I pray I would not settle for anything less or even think of settling for less. As your daughter and princess I deserve a man with Your heart. Who loves not just me, but everyone with Your mighty love. Thank you for having a plan and for wanting me and claiming my heart from the beginning. Satisfy my soul and prepare my heart for the one who claims me from You. I will not awake love before its ready, instead I will delight in the beauty of Your love, and by ability to love others through You. I LOVE YOU LORD!

"Thankfulness is not some sort of magic formula; it is the language of Love, which enables you to communicate intimately with Me. A thankful mind-set does not entail a denial of reality with its plethora of problems. Instead, it rejoices in Me, your Savior, in the midst of trails and tribulations. I am your refuge and strength, an ever-present and well-proved help in trouble."

-Jesus Calling

[Habakkuk 3:17-18]

Though the cherry trees don't blossom 

   and the strawberries don't ripen,

Though the apples are worm-eaten 

   and the wheat fields stunted,

Though the sheep pens are sheepless 

   and the cattle barns empty,

I'm singing joyful praise to God. 

   I'm turning cartwheels of joy to my Savior God.

Counting on God's Rule to prevail, 

   I take heart and gain strength.

I run like a deer. 

   I feel like I'm king of the mountain!

----Thank you Jesus, that I have a reason to be thankful, always! Your sweet gift of Love and Life brings joy to my heart at all times. THANK YOU----

Pride Prayer

Father, I pray you would just get rid of any pride in me. I know that every good thing about me comes from You and I thank You for that. You are so loving and giving. Help me to make it ALL about You and not about me at all. Show me how to do everything to your glory and nothing for my glory. Thank you for loving me and making me exactly the way I am. YOU are so good, and because of You I have a reason to live. Amen.
