I've decided to write out my prayer to you this morning instead of
speaking it out because I don't want to disrupt my wife's sleep. She
hasn't slept well in the past few nights & I would like to do my part
to help her.
Thank you LORD, for blessing us with this little life in her womb.
This little unborn child is a testimony of Your love & faithfulness to
us. I recall the days of old, when we waited years before our first
child arrived. In spite of the odds, You gave us our first child after
we rejected the doctor's help. This morning as I looked at my
daughters lovingly, both still sleeping sweetly, I thank You for the
countless joys & blessings that You gave us through them. You taught
us & shaped us in ways that only parenthood can bring about. Each day
and as always, I thank You for raising up our girls in Your way and
Your Word. We can only impart Your Word and share with them our
testimonies. It is You who caused them to grow in their love for You.
As I see their excitement about their mother's pregnancy, I can't help
but rejoice at the opportunity You have given us - to raise up another
child in obedience to Your Word and will.
Father, continue to teach us and direct our path. You are our source
of strength & wisdom. You are Jehovah Jireh, our Provider. Let this
little household honour and glorify You through our lives, and make a
difference where we live, work, study & play. May Your joy and love
ever be present in us so that all around us can share in our
experience and know that You are GOD. May we be a blessing to our
colleagues, friends and loved ones this day and as always.
Thank You for hearing my prayer, and thank You for yet another day
which You have given to us. For this is the day that You have made,
and we will rejoice and be glad in it. Let Your people live this day
in a manner that's worthy of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and
consistent with each of our calling in You. May Your NAME be blessed
and praised forever and ever.
In Jesus Name
Amen
Thomas
