Thank You, Lord, for providing us a prayer life where we can rest in Your loving arms! Please hear our prayers for those we dearly love and surround them with a grace that surpasses all understanding! Draw them closer to You as they make their own choices in life! Engulf them in Your power and protection as they struggle with this sin-filled world! Open the eyes of their hearts that they come to know You and depend upon Your guidance in their lives. Give me the wisdom and patience to allow them each to struggle with their own personal issues and guide them as only Your Love can succeed! Heal them from wounds others may have inflicted on them and strengthen their understanding of Your peace and power! I yield to Your perfect timing and trust that You will find a way to break any resistance or evil that may attempt a foothold in their souls. I know that I cannot control life and death and that You alone can save them. In Jesus’ name, we pray.; hear us, Lord, as these loved ones are precious and redeem them as You have me, Your humble and imperfect servant! Amen
