Prayer 02-21-12

Dearest Father, You're the best. You know exactly what we need, and You don't hesitate to provide our daily bread; no more, no less! Please help me to not ask for more, but to rejoice always with your extravagant blessings. Thank You so much for turning Calvin! Perhaps we will (together) turn our house to follow hard after You--bless our efforts, Father. Please provide more fathers for us in the form of the numerous godly men in the churches. Thank You for our grandfather and grandmother, but You know the count of their days better than we do. If it is Your will, let them last until Calvin and I are matured in Your grace, that we would not be bereft once more as children. Let us love You like growing children. Please bless our efforts in our education; remind us to be diligent in our working for Your kingdom. Let us be cheerful givers. Create in us clean hearts, O God, and give us right minds to know ahead of time how each of us will serve Your kingdom on earth. We love You, Lord; let us never, never outlive our love for You. In Jesus's blessed name, amen!
