God,

Your love is infinite and unconditional.

You make me softer, kinder, gentler, generous, forgiving and loving.

I thank You and I pray for more of your Spirit.

Help me to love others as You love me.

Amen

God,

Just as the soft rains fill the streams,
pour into the rivers, and join together in the oceans,
so may the power of Your goodness
flow forth to awaken and heal all beings–
those here now, those gone before, those yet to come.

Amen.

God, as I go to bed tonite, I want to say Thank You for my wonderful wife and two great sons. I am blessed.

Amen.

Have you ever had a friend that is as consistent as the rising of the sun and as tireless as water flowing down a river? They do what has to be done and never complain. To do less is not an option. They always have themselves squared away and enjoy helping those they love. They inspire me and remind me that my spirit is stronger than my mind and body.

God, Thank You for filling my life with wonderful people, help me to pay it forward.

Amen.

I have heard my son say the phrase: “the bigger the problem, the smaller the goals.” I am not sure where he originally picked up the line.

God, wants us to dream big. The path to fulfilling our dreams is filled with what seem to be never ending challenges. God wants us to face these challenges with confidence, courage, determination, love and gratitude to those that help us along the way.

This quote is inspired by the teachings of Buddha.

“Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.”

God, Just like the candle that lights a thousand, let my smile be contagious with everyone I encounter. Amen.

God,

Thank You for the gift of today

Thank You for filling my heart with the hope of tomorrow.

I am loved.

I am special.

I am living a life of purpose.

Thank You!

Amen.

Thank You Father for Your gracious gift of prayer.

Thank You that I may come boldly to You in time of need so that I may obtain mercy and grace.

Amen.

Lord, please help me to remember the power of forgiveness.

If I have harmed anyone in any way either knowingly or unknowingly

through my own confusions I ask their forgiveness.

If anyone has harmed me in any way either knowingly or unknowingly

through their own confusions I forgive them.

Please help me to always move past what was said and done by filling my heart with love and compassion.

Amen.

Loving kindness…

Let me be safe

Let me be healthy

Let me be happy

Let me be peaceful.

May those I love be safe, healthy, happy, peaceful.

May those I do not know be safe, healthy, happy, peaceful.

May those that have hurt me be safe, healthy, happy, peaceful.

May all beings in the universe be safe, healthy, happy, peaceful.

Amen.
