A psalm of David(Psalm 23) ”The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.”
A psalm of David(Psalm 23), cont. ”You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.”
Holy Father: “I ask You to bless my friends, relatives and those that I care deeply for, who are reading this right now. Show them a new revelation of Your love and power. Holy Spirit, I ask You to minister to their spirit at this very moment. Where there is pain, give them Your peace and mercy. Where there is self-doubt, release a renewed confidence through Your grace. Where there is need, I ask you to fulfill their needs. Bless their homes, families, finances, their goings and their comings. In Jesus' precious name.” Amen.
Prayer of St. Francis of Assis Lord,Make me an instrument of your peace.Where there is hatred, let me bring love.Where there is injury, pardon.Where there is doubt, faith.Where there is despair, hope.Where there is darkness, light.Where there is sadness, joy.Where there is discord, harmony.Where there is error, truth.
Prayer of St. Francis of Assis(cont) Where there is wrong, the spirit of forgiveness.O Divine Master,Grant that I may not so much seekTo be consoled as to console.To be understood as to understand.To be loved as to love.For it is in giving that we receive.It is in pardoning that we are pardoned.It is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
Beloved Daughters of Zion May our Father continue to grant you favor, access to his blessings, and for "grace and mercy" to follow you through eternity.
