#prayerful

Prayer is a powerful tool—one we often overlook in the busyness of our lives. For a young mother with two kids, struggling to keep the house in order, maintain friendships, and still find a way to pray, the challenges are real. Yet the Bible shows us that even in our busiest, most stressful moments, intercessory prayer can be transformative. It takes us out of our own worries and helps us focus…

The canon queer character of the day is:

Good morning lord,

It is a confusing world, filled with madness that knows no bounds. I feel like I am stuck on a merry-go-round, watching a myriad of paradox unfold. It is expected that I and the others who wear my skin are to be complacent. Complacent in the midst of injustice, to go unseen and unheard while those who hate us push their agenda. While we live in the midst of a genocide. Lord deliver us from our lamentations allow us to know peace. Di yon mo seigneur. Have mercy on us oh lord and forgive our sins and transgression against you. Help us to run to you in the midst of chaos. Calm our hearts and deliver us from those who seek to cause us harm. Thank you for all that you do and continue to do. Thank you for your grace. Thank you for waking me up this morning. Thank you for the health of me dear and beloved. Thank you for giving me peace this morning. I pray dear lord that you find a reason to smile today. In the name of Jesus I pray Amen.

Psalms 118:

Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good!

For His mercy endures forever.

Let Israel now say,

“His mercy endures forever.”

Let the house of Aaron now say,

“His mercy endures forever.”

Let those who fear the Lord now say,

“His mercy endures forever.”

I called on the Lord in distress;

The Lord answered me and set me in a broad place.

The Lord is on my side;

I will not fear.

What can man do to me?

The Lord is for me among those who help me;

Therefore I shall see my desire on those who hate me.

It is better to trust in the Lord

Than to put confidence in man.

It is better to trust in the Lord

Than to put confidence in princes.

All nations surrounded me,

But in the name of the Lord I will destroy them.

They surrounded me,

Yes, they surrounded me;

But in the name of the Lord I will destroy them.

They surrounded me like bees;

They were quenched like a fire of thorns;

For in the name of the Lord I will [a]destroy them.

You pushed me violently, that I might fall,

But the Lord helped me.

The Lord is my strength and song,

And He has become my salvation.

The voice of rejoicing and salvation

Is in the tents of the righteous;

The right hand of the Lord does valiantly.

The right hand of the Lord is exalted;

The right hand of the Lord does valiantly.

I shall not die, but live,

And declare the works of the Lord.

The Lord has chastened[b] me severely,

But He has not given me over to death.

Open to me the gates of righteousness;

I will go through them,

And I will praise the Lord.

This is the gate of the Lord,

Through which the righteous shall enter.

I will praise You,

For You have answered me,

And have become my salvation.

The stone which the builders rejected

Has become the chief cornerstone.

This was the Lord’s doing;

It is marvelous in our eyes.

This is the day the Lord has made;

We will rejoice and be glad in it.

Save now, I pray, O Lord;

O Lord, I pray, send now prosperity.

Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!

We have blessed you from the house of the Lord.

God is the Lord,

And He has given us light;

Bind the sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar.

You are my God, and I will praise You;

You are my God, I will exalt You.

Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good!

For His mercy endures forever.

I pray that this psalms comforts you and fill you with courage to fight the good fight and above all hope for a brighter tommorow.
