Fountain of Life

Mighty Father

Your Glory is so wonderful

You have done so many things for us; too numerous to list

I want to share Your Goodness to everyone

I don't hide You in my heart

I have talked about Your Goodness to people

I share You with my family, my friends, my neighbors for You are the Fountain of Life

Even if You make me aware of the existence of good and evil

The goodness I see through Your eyes

You make me discern and protect me from all evil

By Your light I see the world around me and You are my Hope always

Amen

gim

"You are the Fountain of Life, the light by which we see."

Psalm 36:9

A Mother's Prayer

Father in Heaven

I pray that we will always seek You; focus on You so we can have Your unconditional love for us; to be one with one another all the time.For that is Your reason why You brought us together as a family. To share the same unconditional love with others too in our workplaces and our neighborhoods.

Protect us from the evil one whose only purpose is to create misunderstandings and divisions in us as we journey in our relationships.Using lies, temptations and deceit to lure us away from one another; losing our trust for one another so we can draw away from You most of all

Give us Your humility, self-control, unselfishness,strength, Godly wisdom and discipline in cultivating our love for each other through honest communication, affirming one another always, always patient,always loving,always forgiving,always supportive and always respectful everyday in every way. In those days when we make mistakes, help us to swallow our pride to make amends and ask for forgiveness always.When we focused on You we can do it; for this is how You meant us to live our everyday lives with love for You and for one another.Always doing our best for each other; focusing only on our good even if we can see each others faults so You can bless us.Teac h us to always be grateful to You for everything that you have given to us. When we choose to obey You, trust You fully,You work everything out in every area of our lives according to Your good purpose for us and we will lack not lack anything for You are our only peace and fullfilment.

In Jesus Name we pray.Hear a mother's prayer Lord. Thank you so much for this gift of praying to You always.

Amen

gim

"Love is patient, love is kind.It does not envy, it does not boast. It is not proud. It is not rude. It is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices in the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes,always endures."

1 Corinthians 13: 4-7

Your Easter Kind of Love

Lord Jesus

You are giving me Your Easter kind of love,

Your Calvary love always when you died for me on the cross

Reminding me every Easter that You love me so much to give Your life for me

You shed Your blood for me to die for my sins so I can be set free

Free to live, Free to choose Your life

What more can I ask for from a friend, a Father like You who willingly gave up His life for me so I will be free from sins

Past, Present and Future

It is too much to imagine what You went through for me to have an everlasting life with You 

So much so that the only thing You want from me is;

To Believe and Trust in You

To love others the way You love me 

So that I will not perish but have an everlasting life

This is Your Easter kind of love for me to enjoy and remember always

Amen

gim 

 " For God so love the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life."

John 3:16

Though I Do Not See You, I Love You

Lord Jesus

It is by Your Awesome Grace in me and that You loved me so much even before I love You back

Thank You so much for giving me this gift of Your Grace

To have faith in You, though I cannot see You

To trust in You though I cannot see You

It is hard to explain but I feel it in my soul

I love You Lord, that everyday You are with me

And during those times that I need You the most, the more You make

Your Love and Presence be felt through Your Promises, Your Word

Bringing me a Joy I cannot express

I know this is Your Heart making it known to me that though I cannot see You

You are near to Your Beloved Child ( Your Name)

Amen

gim

"You love Him even though you have never seen Him, Though you do not see Him, you trust Him and even now you are happy with a glorious inexpressible joy. You reward for trusting HIm will be the Salvation of your souls."

God's Silence

Lord Almighty 

You are Silent now?

I know that You are always with me

You will never leave me nor forsake me

Enable me to keep seeking You with all my heart

Praying to You,

Being still before You through Your Silence

For Your Silence means that

You are working behind the scenes of my life

raising me to a higher level of intimacy with You

cleansing me of my sins

developing my character

in the stillness of Your Silence

You want me to trust You, be faithful to You

for Your Silence is golden

Knowing me, Knowing You

amidst Your Silence

Amen  

gim

"Be still and know that I Am God"

Psalm 46:10

You Enable Me

Lord Jesus, My Comforter

You enable me to comfort others the same way You comfort me

Help me to focus only on You, to seek Your face,to have Your Spirit

Believing in Your power through my own faith to comfort others

Help me not to become so occupied with myself,being so busy with unimportant things

that You cannot work Your Way, Your Truth and Your Life through me

I may even be occupied with so much religious activity that I become insensitive and unaware of what,

You want to do through me, to comfort and to love whom You send my way.

Make me aware Lord, 

Make me see, Lord

Make me hear, Lord 

Speak through me

Enable me to work Your Life through me

In Jesus Name I pray

Amen.

"So I brought him to Your disciples but they could not cure him.Then Jesus answered and said, "O faithless and perverse generation how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him here to Me."

( Matthew 17: 16-17)

My Awesome Companion

The Lord is my Awesome Companion

My Best friend,my Everything

I will not be in need

He quiets my soul and stills me, to restore my spirit

He enables me to follow His Life for His glory

He works through me when I empty myself

When I pass through my wilderness and storms pound on me

He is my Lighthouse, my Beacon of Light,my Rock

He develops my character teaching me His Love,  Patience and Forgiveness

When I am misunderstood and surrounded by my enemies

He comforts me with His Love and Hope

His Spirit fills me up and I am restored once again

His Joy overflows

His Grace,His Goodness and His Blessing will accompany me always in this life and forever in all eternity

Amen

My Love Note to Jesus

Dear Jesus

Help me to cry my heart out to You

Help me to rest my weary shoulders on You

Help me to rest

I am so tired and burdened

I know You will hold me up to let me know Your peace You will give me, so my joy will be full

Nothing else will I need except Your Peace and hear You say You love me

I will rest my weary shoulders on You

and You will give me Your Peace

beyond my understanding

I love You Jesus

Thank You

Amen

"And the peace of God which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."

Forgive and Erase

Lord Almighty

It is easy for me to pray

forgive me as I forgive my debtors

but it is not easy for me to forgive someone

and erase whatever he has done to me.

You said,that if I forgive someone who hurt me

You will also forgive me;my prayers will be   answered.

Make me aware of that dark part of me

where resentment and bitterness will take root

because of my unforgiveness that I cannot totally erase.

Make me sensitive to my own need for forgiveness from You so that when I pray

Father, forgive me of my debt as I forgive my debtors

the same way Your unconditional forgiveness forgives me of what I have done to You;

then I can truly worship You and praise You

Amen

gim

"And forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors."For if you forgive men their trespasses,Your heavenly Father will also forgive you."

Matthew 6: 12, 14)
