America Mourns…

Good Morning God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son, and to the Holy Spirit that resides over us, I bow before you this morning heavy in heart.

Lord, it’s the beginning of a new week, and with all the death surrounding us today, our world is in mourning.

We mourn the deaths of our fallen soldiers and the many they’ve spent years helping and protecting from the devastation they once again find themselves in. The lives being lost due to a virus that help the compromised exit early and have left us feeling scared and vulnerable. The deadly force of the oceans seems to be testing their boundaries more and more with each storm. Lord, we mourn the freedom of just being able to be.

Holy Spirit, we need you! We need to feel your presence, we need your strength and peace. We need your wisdom and boldness. We need the sense of security that comes with knowing that we belong to Jesus and not this world.

Darkness is becoming increasingly vivid, and I am praying for a stirring within your church, we your children, are your church! It’s not a building bearing a cross, it is your believers who daily and proudly bear and wear your cross. We all have voices; Lord, give us the courage to use them because the world needs your light more than ever!

I pray for the lost, the scared, the lied to, and the deceived. I pray for clarity in which steps to take and the security to take them. Lead me, Lord, in the ways you would have me to go so that your plans for my life unfold before me.

In your mighty name, I pray comfort for all who have to attend to funeral arrangements today. I pray for those who have just had to say goodbye to a loved one, and I pray for those who are in the devastating stage of knowing a goodbye is imminent.

I pray for those who don’t know you, those who have wandered away, and those who are mad at you. I pray that whatever caused their intense pain in which you are getting the blame to be revealed and healed.

Holy Spirit, I ask you to fill us so full of your love and light that we leave a sparkling trail behind us and a light so bright it pierces the darkness and illuminates the world. In your name Lord Jesus, I pray. Amen

My heart is troubled, and I am so sad for the families of our fallen soldiers how they must feel their country let them and their children down. Would you please send an extra prayer for these families and the families in Afghanistan?

New Orleans has barely gotten back on its feet from Katrina, and Ida has wreaked havoc; we need to be praying for our southern coastal states and all the loss and devastation.

We need to be aware of what is going on and be on our knees! We are the best defense our world has right now!!! Thank you for joining me in this battle and sharing Sunshine with me. 🥰
