My mom once gave my Great-Grandmother a journal and asked her to fill it with advice, guidance, prayers, scripture, and memories. She wanted it to be personalized, something she could share with my sister and I and treasure for years to come. My Great-Grandmother was an inspirational woman. She lived a hard life, but she never ceased to give God praise. Her wisdom deserves to be shared, not just within our family, but with anyone who will listen.

June 15th 2006

My Heavenly Father,
     Thank you for this beautiful day. Forgive me of all my sins and help me be what you would have me be. I need you every hour of the day and night. 
     Thank you for my family. Would you bless all of them and draw them closer to you? I pray for  Dave and Lori. Bless Dave and help him be able to go on working and do all he has to do. Help Lori to do all the things she has to do to get better. I pray for Lindsey. I pray for Ted and his family. I pray for Deck in his work for you. 
     I pray for our leaders and our country. I pray that Americans will come back to God. I pray for our churches to preach your word to this lost and dying world for you are coming soon.


"Those who trust in the Lord shall be like a tree planted by the waters, sending out its roots by the streams" 
- Jeremiah 17:8

     God, help us develop strong roots of prayer, praise, and hope. Amen.

Thought for the Day:
God makes us strong and invites us to become stronger still.

I love you Lord Jesus and I praise you!

Thank you for every blessing you have given to me.

Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.
