I apologize for not creating a prayer requests thread. I actually did but my computer had an 'error' and basically shut down about the time I posted, but I didn't realize that it hadn't materialized. However I will pray for us all generally.<P>Father,<P>Thank You for this most beautiful new day in You. Lord we come before You and ask that You be in this day and every day with us. Cause our hearts to so yearn for your presence in our lives and the acknowledgement that You are there whether we feel it or not.Help us to seek You first in everything and 'lean not on our own understanding' of anything. <P>Also help us to know that all things are possible with You. Lord that is just so hard to accept. We acknowledge it as truth, but it is another thing to live it out in our lives. <P>Lord so convict our hearts that You are in all things, that You know all things and that You are good and can only do good things for us. Lord, let us so hold on to these promises and truths during the walk through these hard times. Let us so come to know You, Lord that we cannot doubt ever again in anything but our own abilities.<P>Lord we lift up our loved ones to You. Truely You are the transformer of hearts. Lord we can not change anything, but ourselves with Your guidance. But You, Lord know what is best and what it will take to get our h's there. You are right now working in their hearts, transforming them, calling to them, drawing them nearer to YOu. Lord, we do not see any evidence, but we know it is happening. <P>Lord we ask that you bring each praying wife's h fully into life in Christ. Lord, for those that know You and are hiding from You, Lord turn them around and restore them into a relationship with You, surrendering their lives, their selves to service for You and in You. For those hs that have never known You, Lord let them be brought into relationship with Christ. Lord, surround each man with associates that know You well. Lord, supply Nathans that will confront them each with Godly love to repentence. Surround them with witnesses that testify to Your life gining qualities, that can free them from their dins. Lord, give them patient wifes with such love in their hearts for them, love that can only come from You. Lord You have not given up on them, let us not either. Show us when to wait, when to speak, when to encourage and when to be quiet. Let us not interfere with Your work in them.<P>Lord break down our strongholds, and build up our Godly boundaries. Let us take every thought captive to the truth in Jesus Christ. Lord change us, our hearts, minds, ways, habits, beliefs, attitudes and turn these into Godly, Christ like thoughts, hearts, ways, habits, beliefs and attitudes. Lord let us be praying wives. Lord let us also pray earnestly for our children. Let us thirst to delve into Your word so that we may come to know You better. Let us stand before You approved because we cling to Jesus, and not ourselves.<P>Lord there is alot of pain that is represented in this forum. Lord You are our comfort, hope, desire, grace, peace and rest. Let us know what it means to rest in You, to give over our yokes of burden. Lord increase our hope and belief in You. <P>Lord, let us truely desire You above all things and persons. Lord take all our desires, dreams, hopes and longings. Take them, stripping them from us. Bury those dreams, hopes, longings that do not fit Your plan for our lives and return those dreams, hopes, desires and longings that You will lead us into. Lord let our lives truely reflect Christ likeness. Let all things in us be surrendered to You. Let us take nothing back that is not a gift from You, and change our hearts to accept and desire this.<P>Lord protect those that are traveling. Sooth those that are waiting for results of surgeries and medical tests. Lord heal those that are sick, and those that are wounded emotionally. Lord, heal our hurts and our hearts. Lord let us release to You all things that we can not control anyways.<P>Lord thank you for giving us each other. Thank you for bringing each special woman to this forum. Lord I thank You for the fellowship and the hearts that care so deeply for each other. Lord give us each the gift of encouragement to others.<P>Lord, I thank You so deeply for all that You do each day for us, just for the gift of Jesus Christ that lives in our midst . Lord, for an ear that always hears us, and cares so deeply for us. Lord, there is no possible love here on earth that can match the love You have for each of us. Lord it is hard to really fathom the depth of Your love for us.<P>Lord we are women who love you and love our husbands. We acknowledge that You know best what is the best for us and our lives. We trust You and ask that You help us with any remenants of unbelief. <P>Lord we praise You for You are good and You choose only the best for us. We are confident in Your love and promises for us. Lord, let us always hear "This is the Way, walk in it."<P>Thank You for being our dearest friend, and our daddy. Lord we owe You so much. In Jesus name, I ask and I pray, Amen.
