Father✝️ in Heaven,

As I pray today
in the name of Jesus Christ✝️,
👍🏾our⚖️ Only ✝️ Way,
may You✝️ continue
to remind us
that You✝️ are with us!
hearing us or hearing about us.
You are here.
Because of who you are
may we never wonder
Yet again behold

what You✝️ have done
through this son👍🏾
as we continue to see
Your✝️ power at work.

In our next
Keep us in remembrance
despite responsibility

Like,

as she continues
to light the candle
May she realize
the fire she actually has
in her is not to be hid
I need to see, Lord✝️
what it is she will be
as I and the world are warmed
by Your✝️ free flowing Love✝️
that continues to fuel her

As she dresses
the altar help her
be mindful
of her days that lead to celebration
of your themes of glory
just as the calendar that governs
our worship

God✝️, may the advent of white
complement her dress
In the midst of my hope
at the realizing of her
form of worship
face to face
ear to ear to hear
breathe to breathe
Side to side
Hand to hand
and
exchange of truth
that is to lead to a course of life
beyond imagination

In her dress
of green and purple
may such routine times
of our life reminds us
to hold – fast
in our faith
as we remember
the sacrifice of our Savior
through our own sacrifice
As something that through Him✝️
strengthen us while
bringing us closer
to see, hear, and understand
on another more clearly in the Spirit✝️

May Holy Week’s red
remind us of the extremity of God✝️’s love
Once again, a sacrifice that causes
one 👍🏾 to return home
unto his rightful place
To occupy a space
only fit for a specific
God✝️ what a paradox in parallel
for one to say
I’m am the way the truth
and life in the Spirit✝️
That leads to peace
for those who accept it

Lord✝️! Help me see red⚖️
as I endeavor to forsake death
just as such a reminder mentioned,
and knowing I’m not there yet!
Until then help us hope to behold
a white dress
of resurrection and restoration
That leads to such a situation
That leads to a next victory

A new beginning,
another lesson in patience,
one that sustains
And helps us remain faithful.

Because the experience
of hope isn’t simply
getting what we wanted.

It’s discovering
through the process
that Your✝️ Love
never failed 👍🏾us⚖️.

Even when
we didn’t understand
the timing.

Even when
the road was unfamiliar
these thoughts were in mind

Even when
the next step required us
to stand still and trust.

Lord✝️,

may 👍🏾we⚖️
look forward without forgetting
what You’ve✝️ already done,
prepare a son👍🏾 to pray
this way to a daughter⚖️

meanwhile as I stay in position

as 👍🏾we⚖️ grab hold of hope
of a conversation and transition
as wait without surrendering
our confidence.

This is my prayer in Jesus Christ✝️
name I pray and give thanks.

Amen.
