A Blessing Prayer

A Blessing Prayer

God bless you in the morning

with His Presence shining bright,

and make the whole day happy

with His radiant love and light...

God bless you in the evening

when daytime hours depart,

and-like a benediction

leave His Peace upon your heart.

I found this little prayer in my parish bulletin. I thought I'd share it with you today. Like the gospel reads this morning, we're each very important to Christ. And Christ has given each individual a personalized gift, and that we all take part in bringing up the kingdom of God. I pray that I am using the gifts that the Lord has given to me to bring up the kingdom of God. I hope you all feel the peace of Christ this Lord's day. God bless each and everyone of you!

Love, Anne

The Names of God

*JMJ* I read this from a prayer card that was given to me. I thought I'd share it with you all.

~The Names of God~

"I AM YOUR PROVIDER"

Gen 22:14

"I AM YOUR HEALER"

Ex 15:26

"I AM YOUR VICTORY"

Ex 17:15

"I AM YOUR PEACE"

Judges 6:24

"I AM YOUR SHEPHERD"

Ps 23:1

"I AM YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS"

Jer 23:6

"I AM YOUR SALVATION"

"Jesus"

"I AM WITH YOU"

Ez 48:35

On the flip side of this prayer card reads....

"My contentment is

not in wealth,

but in seeing You

and knowing

all is well between us.

And when I awake

in heaven

I will be fully satisfied,

for I will see You

face to face."

I just love this little prayer card. But I can't remember who gave it to me. I do hope it comes to me.

On another note, I have been suffering from tension headaches for the past five months now. Please pray for my healing of these headaches. It has been rather awful because it has dragged on for some time now. Thank you.

Happy 2010!
