Health, faith, family and friends.

Dear Lord, Joanie is on my heart today. I pray that she can remain focused on you and that her health problems will be rectified soon. I pray that she doesn't push herself too hard in the rush to get her home improvements complete and that she will listen to her body and rest when she needs to.

I pray for Lightening as she goes through the lengthy process of first lessening and then completely coming off her anti depressants. I pray that she can achieve her aim to be well again soon Lord, without the help of any drugs and relying only on You. But if this isn't to be Lord I pray that she can accept that and find the correct medication at the correct dose.

I pray for Pink's injuries to heal quickly and painlessly. Thankyou that she has recovered from her infection and is full of energy again.

And for Robbie, I pray that he can continue to apply himself at school. He is enjoying it again now Lord and I thank you for that. Thank you for guiding us to encourage him to play squash. That has been such a blessing for him, he enjoys it so much and I am enjoying the time I spend alone with him when travelling to and from squash.

And my husband's knee is troubling him tonight Lord. I pray that he can get a good nights rest and be healed in the morning.

As for me Lord, I pray for some restoration. I've been feeling a little "off my game" of late and that worries me. Last time I felt this way it didn't take long for me to slide into depression. I pray that won't be the case this time, and I'm pretty sure it won't, because this time I am that much closer and more dependant upon You. I pray that I can continue to grow in my faith and closer to You as I learn from your word.

I pray that my family can one day come to rely on you for everything they need. I pray that we can all look to you first and foremost, which is where you belong. I pray that I can be more transparent in my faith and witness to others.

All these things I leave at your feet Lord.
