Praise The Lord and ditto: "Help us surrender our circumstances, situations, perceived problems and all that we're concerned about to You, knowing nothing we go through in life is bigger than the world being created, so You can handle all of our "its, this, and thats".

Peace & Blessings to all

Our Father in heaven, we lift our hands in total praise to You. We clap our hands in agreement that You are the reigning King. You are the mighty God. You're awesome, sovereign, loving, kind, just, righteous--You are the only true and living God and we thank You for Your amazing love to us. Just thinking about the many times we have messed up, the many times we insisted on having our way, the many times we were willfully disobedient to You; But still You never left us and You continued to shower us with Your goodness, kindness, mercy and grace. Lord, help us to slow down today. Slow down long enough to think about how much You truly love us. Slow down long enough to take a look around and see the beauty You have provided for us. Slow down long enough to look up and see the beautiful blue sky, the clouds, the sun, the moon and the stars. Slow down long enough to remember the God Who stepped out on nothing and created the world is our Father and You always take care of Your children. Help us surrender our circumstances, situations, perceived problems and all that we're concerned about to You, knowing nothing we go through in life is bigger than the world being created, so You can handle all of our "its, this, and thats". It's a great day and we praise You in advance for all of the victories, healing, deliverance and blessings we shall experience today, in Jesus Name, Amen.

TUESDAY MORNING PRAYER
O Lord, our Lord how excellent is Thy Name in all the earth!! The Name of Jesus is the sweetest Name we know. Just saying, "Jesus" soothes our doubt and calms our fears. Just saying, "Jesus" puts the biggest smile on our face, joy in our hearts and peace in our minds. In the Name of Jesus demons must flee. In the Name of Jesus healing takes place in our bodies. In the Name of Jesus deliverance is ours. In the Name of Jesus we are not just over-comers, but we're more than conquerors. Thank You for the privilege to be able to call on the Name, Jesus. We thank You Lord for another perfect day. We thank You for our health and strength. We thank You for giving us a mind to thank, praise and worship You, for truly You are the only true and living God. Lord, help us to pay close attention to Your voice today and follow were You lead. Help us to remember, we see now, but You see tomorrow and further down the road, and if we follow Your lead, You will take us where You have blessings in store for us. You will take us where someone needs to see our smile, someone needs to hear our encouraging word, You will take us where we're needed most. Lord, we want to be used by You, use us to make today better, in Jesus Name, Amen.

Because of Calvary,

MONDAY MORNING PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, we thank You for bringing us through the weekend and blessing us to see another Monday morning. Lord, sometimes we have the Monday blues because after two days off we have to go back to work, but Lord we praise You today because we have a job to go to. We praise You because the schools are open and we can go forth to learn. We praise You because the banks are open, the City and Government offices are open. We praise You because the parks have staff to make the parks safe. The street sweepers are out making our streets clean and the garbage collectors are keeping are neighborhoods free of trash and spoil. Lord, for all of our jobs we give You praise!! For all of the jobs we had and You blessed us to retire from, we give You praise! For blessing us to have jobs that we can take a vacation from, we give You praise!! Lord, You have always supplied all of our needs and we thank You for Your ever presence in our lives. We're going forth today with an attitude of thanksgiving, we're not going to complain about anything, but rather we're giving glory to You in all we say and do. This is the day that our faithful God has made and we shall rejoice and be glad in it, in Jesus Name, Amen.

FRIDAY MORNING INSPIRATION
You Can’t Please Everyone
An old fable that has been passed down for generations tells about an elderly man who was traveling with a boy and a donkey. As they walked through a village, the man was leading the donkey and the boy was walking behind. The townspeople said the old man was a fool for not riding, so to please them he climbed up on the animal’s back. When they came to the next village, the people said the old man was cruel to let the child walk while he enjoyed the ride. So, to please them, he got off and set the boy on the animal’s back and continued on his way. In the third village, people accused the child of being lazy for making the old man walk, and the suggestion was made that they both ride. So the man climbed on and they set off again. In the fourth village, the townspeople were indignant at the cruelty to the donkey because he was made to carry two people. The frustrated man was last seen carrying the donkey down the road.
We smile, but this story makes a good point: We can’t please everybody, and if we try we end up carrying a heavy burden. Well-meaning Christians may offer us advice, and much of it is valuable. But when we try to do everything other believers want us to do, we can easily become frustrated and confused. That’s why we need to remember that the One we must please above all others is Christ. And we do that by obeying God’s Word.
Carried any donkeys lately? You don’t have to if you’re trying to please Jesus. Please remember the Thomas family as they mourn the passing of their Mother.

THURSDAY MORNING PRAYER
Hallelujah to the Lord Our God! We praise You Father because You reign forever! There is none like You and we worship You because of Who You are. We thank You Lord because You know everything there is to know about us, the good, the bad and the ugly, but still You continue to shower us with new mercy and cover us with Your unconditional love. Lord help us to place how much You love us at the forefront of our minds--when we're wronged, help us remember Your love. When we're hurt, help us remember Your love. When we're disappointed, help us remember Your love. In all things help us remember Your love to us and purpose in our hearts to let nothing smaller than Your love to us cause us to react to our circumstances and situations as if there is no hope. Help us to know Your love to us is amazing. You've always given us Your best and right now is not the time to ruin Your reputation in our lives--You will continue to be God Almighty, the Great I Am. You always keep Your Word, which lets us know in all things You're with us; And, because You're with us we're more than conquerors in all things! Lord help us admit we're not smart enough to plan our own lives and give us the courage to surrender to Your perfect plan. You made today and there is nothing about this day that will catch You by surprise, help us trust You one minute at a time and know You do all things well. We pray for Laurie Cannon, asking You to move mightily with Your healing touch in her life. We give You praise and we thank You in advance for the victory today, in Jesus Name, Amen.

WEDNESDAY MORNING PRAYER
This is the day that the Lord has made! We will rejoice and be glad in it! Good morning Lord, we thank You for another beautiful day. We are grateful to be alive, our needs are supplied, our family and friends are doing pretty good; Really Lord, we have nothing to complain about. Help us to see the blessing is in our praise, not our complaining. Lord, You desire to be glorified in all that we say and do, give us the strength to praise You right in the middle of whatever it is we want to complain about. We pray one for another, praying all we do today will point back to Jesus. We pray everywhere we go we will let our little light shine, that we not be tempted to use words unbecoming of Whose we are; That we not do things to cause others to doubt the God we serve. Keep us reminded that we may be the only Bible that the people in our lives read, help us purpose in our hearts and minds to not misquote Your Word by the things we do and say. We are Your people, we're glad You call us friend, and no matter what, You refuse to give up on us and walk away. What a Friend we have in Jesus!! Bless Your Name Jesus, we give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.

Lord we thank You for opening our eyes to see a new day. We thank You for blessing us throughout yesterday and watching over us last night. Father, we recognize we are truly blessed to have the only true and living God in our lives. We're blessed because we are all equally important to You; You don't have favorites, You love us all the same. Even when we mess up Your love to us does not change. Your love to us corrects, directs, leads, guides, forgives, chastises--Your love to us is truly amazing and for this we give You praise. Lord help us to love and trust You enough to know when things are falling apart in our lives, that's when You're arranging things the way You want it. Give us the courage and wisdom to not want to hang on to the old arrangements in our lives but trust You to make all things new. Help us to surrender our lives to You and commit to praising You by being who You created us to be. It's a new and different day today, but we praise You Lord because the same God Who brought us through yesterday is the same God in control today, so we will trust You today. When the enemy comes against us, help us yield not to temptation and give us the strength to say, "Lord, I trust You". It's a great day today and we're thanking You in advance for the great things in store for us, we give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.

Steps To Happiness

Everybody Knows:
You can't be all things to all people.
You can't do all things at once.
You can't do all things equally well.
You can't do all things better than everyone else.
Your humanity is showing just like everyone else's.

So:

You have to find out who you are, and be that.
You have to decide what comes first, and do that.
You have to discover your strengths, and use them.
You have to learn not to compete with others,
Because no one else is in the contest of *being you*.

Then:

You will have learned to accept your own uniqueness.
You will have learned to set priorities and make decisions.
You will have learned to live with your limitations.
You will have learned to give yourself the respect that is due.
And you'll be a most vital mortal.

Dare To Believe:

That you are a wonderful, unique person.
That you are a once-in-all-history event.
That it's more than a right, it's your duty, to be who you are.
That life is not a problem to solve, but a gift to cherish.
And we'll be able to stay one up on what used to get us.
