Prayer 1

O LORD, my God
Capture my heart and my mind in this noisy world
For often I am distracted not knowing life's direction
that You have called me

O LORD, my God
Hear my cry
Take me into Your refuge
For I am afraid, life is tough and difficult

O LORD, my God
Into Your hands I commit my spirit
For You are my faithful God

Wait for the LORD
Be strong and take courage
For HE will never forsake you

Hi Rudy,

Below is a prayer I received via e-mail (PowerPoint).
Hope you will find it useful and like it too.


Prayer for you and family:

Dear LORD
I thank you for this day;
I thank you for being able to see and hear the beauty of your creations;
I thank you for your blessings in my life.

I humbly request your forgiveness for everything I have done, said, or thought in contrary to YOUR will…

Please protect me, my family, and my friends from all danger, and support me with YOUR wisdom to accept all things that come my way with gratitude…

Let me not whine and whimper over things beyond my control; let me recognize any sin and acknowledge it as evil; and when I sin, give me the courage to confess, and repent for my wrongdoings.

Give me the strength, so that I could help the weak. Keep me uplifted, so that I could encourage others. Give me knowledge, so that I could provide direction to those who have lost their way.

I pray… for all my near and dear ones to know you intimately;
I pray… for those misjudged and misunderstood to have mercy;
I pray… for peace, love, and joy to dominate my family’s and friends’ lives, and that all their needs be met.

Even in those moments when I don’t pray, I ask YOU to please listen to my heart and continue to use me to do YOUR will…

When this world closes in on me,I pray that YOU make me go as clean as the way YOU created me.

May the words of this prayer be received into the hearts of every eye that sees them, and every mouth that confesses them willingly…

In Jesus’ name, Amen

Sam Chan
