A Prayer to See People Clearly

Hey God,

Open the eyes of my heart and allow me to see people clearly and help me to learn where to place people in my heart. I want to see people through Your eyes and not my pain, trauma or a false rumor. I don't want my future relationships to suffer because of the pain from past ones. Heal the broken areas of my heart so can walk in love with people. Give me discernment so that don't give access to people I should just love. Help me to build boundaries that protect me and not walls that isolate me. In Jesus name, Amen.

A Daily Bread of Life Lessons:

1. Your greatest test will be how you handle people who mishandled you.

2. Your past can prepare you for your future. It doesn't have to predict it.

3. Everyone is battling something.

4. Good things are worth the wait.

5. People have opinions but God has dominion.

6. Healthy people are intentional in three areas: mental, spiritual, and emotional.

7. Don't send mixed messages with your values. You post about your standards but your decisions scream confusion. Know your worth and act accordingly

8. Love is the most powerful gift because it requires all of you.

A Daily Bread to start your week:

Hey God,

Please guide my heart this week. I know You will call me to do hard things but not impossible things. You see all that is in front of me, and honestly, Lord, I'm tempted to quit at times. So, give me the strength to do something that may hurt my heart in the moment but bring me closer to You in the future. I can't grow if I never face the giants. So I will take my rock of obedience and put it in my slingshot of worship and conquer the giants on the path to where You've called me. I will listen for Your voice in every situation. Correct me if I'm off track and give me rest when I'm tired. And as I keep walking to our places, I will keep my eyes on You. In Jesus name, Amen.

A Prayer To Start October

Hey God,

As I start October, please help me to not allow the feeling of being behind in life, make me abandon Your plans for me. It's a little scary how fast this year is going by and I don't want to settle in a place that wasn't meant for me. I don't want my mistakes to make me rush the process. I want to walk in purpose and not in comparison. So do whatever you need to do in my life to prepare me for the things You have for me. Give me the strength to continue, the patience to grow, and the wisdom to see You in every detail. You be God and I'll be obedient as I continue to walk to the places that We talk about. In Jesus name, Amen.

Culture vs God

Culture: Hustle and Sleep when you're dead.

God: Rest in knowing that with God all things are possible. So walk at the pace of grace for your calling.

Culture: You can't trust people they'll hurt you.

God: You can't trust the lie that all people will hurt you. The wrong people will hurt you but the right people will heal you.

Culture: Expose, Shame, Judge, and Cancel.

God: Expose, Heal, Correct, and Redeem.

Culture: Go where you're celebrated.

God: Go where I called you to go. Everything you need is there.

Faith Prayers

God, even when I can't see you working, I believe that you're working, so I'm going to keep working.

God, I will not quit. If You called me to it, then I believe You will see me through it.

God, I believe the faith in my heart more than the doubt in my head.

God, teach me how to walk on what is trying to drown me.

God, I will place my rock of obedience in my slingshot of worship and kill giants before me.

God, help me to not allow my disappointments to talk me out of my

Happy Friday 🎊😁

Today's Daily Bread is a reminder...

God told Joshua to BE strong and courageous.

God did not tell Joshua to FEEL strong and courageous.

EMOTIONS are the language of our heart.

FAITH is the language of God.

Don't let your emotions talk you out of your faith in what God spoke to you.

Feel your emotions....and walk by faith.

God,

I was thinking about what You placed in my heart to do, and I know that I need You now more than ever to accomplish my calling. Faith is believing in things not yet seen but things that I desperately hope for. Develop into me the faith to walk on what seems impossible for I know that with You all things are possible. I know You call me to walk on the impossible, destroy giants, pick up my cross, and love people back to life in You. So, if You called me to it, You will see me through it. I pray that I see myself the way that You see me. You be God, and I will be obedient. I will not allow my doubt to outwork my faith, but I will use my rock of obedience and slingshot of worship to accomplish all You have placed in my heart.

Stumbled upon this and had to share.

Hey God,

I don't LOOK like what I have been through.

I don't LOVE like what I have been through.

I don't TREAT people like they have treated me.

I didn't MATCH their ACTIONS because the goal was to WALK IN PURPOSE NOT REVENGE

I forgave, healed, and didn't live my life to prove them wrong.

For they are NOT the GOAL......... You are.

God,

Have Your way in my life today. I trust You more than anything else. I pray that today I will become more like You. I will walk in love and step over drama. I will walk by faith and not stumble over worry, because I know You will work everything out. Help me to be the answer to someone's prayer today, and when people see me, I hope that they see Your heart shining through me. The goal is to leave everyone I encounter better than I found them and allow them to taste the fruit of the Spirit from our interaction. Give me the wisdom and strength to handle anything that might come my way. I will not be led by my emotions today but by Your Spirit. I know that You are with me, and I trust You. So, I will continue to walk to the places that You have prepared for me today.

Here's your Daily Bread to start your week!

God,

Please guide my heart this week. This week I pray I grow closer to You. May I use my gifts to build the things You placed in my heart. You have permission to do whatever you need to in my life. Heal my heart to the point that my triggers become my testimonies. I can't allow what happened to me to determine how I show up in life. May love be the theme of my life and Your joy be my strength. May I leave everyone I encounter this week better than I found them. I know that not everything that happens to me is good but I trust You to work everything out for good and Your glory. In Jesus name, Amen.
