I like extra prayers of faith and believe with me my name is tammy
Lord Jesus, thank You that even on my birthday, You gave me the opportunity to bless others. Your Word says, “It is more blessed to give than to receive” (Acts 20:35). Thank You for letting my life be used for good, even when my own heart feels heavy.
Father, You see the hurt in me. It is hard to feel special when my husband treated my birthday like it was just another day and did not show care. But You are the God who sees me. “You have kept count of my tossings; put my tears in Your bottle” (Psalm 56:8). Lord, convict his heart, correct him, and deal with him in truth and love. Teach him to be a loving, caring, compassionate, and attentive husband. Remove every hardness, pride, and selfishness, and shape him into the man You have called him to be. Your Word says, “I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you” (Ezekiel 36:26). Let that be so in him.
Lord, I ask You to meet me with Your comfort and presence. “The Lord is near to the brokenhearted” (Psalm 34:18). Be close to me and strengthen me where I feel disappointed.
Father, as I go treat myself and get my hair done at the beauty shop on Thursday morning, I place that time into Your hands. Bless my time there. Bless the hair color I have chosen, and let everything turn out beautifully. Let Your favor rest on me. “You will bless the righteous; with favor You will surround him as with a shield” (Psalm 5:12).
I invite Your presence with me into that salon. Let peace be there. Let joy be there. Let even a worship song play while I am there as a reminder that You are with me. “In Your presence is fullness of joy” (Psalm 16:11).
Bless the lady who will be working on my hair. Guide her hands and her work by Your Holy Spirit. Let her be patient, skilled, and attentive. “Establish the work of our hands” (Psalm 90:17). Let everything be covered by Your grace and go smoothly from beginning to end.
Lord, You be in control of Thursday morning. Go before me, be with me, and let Your goodness be seen in every detail. I trust You.
In Jesus’ name, amen.
