I sit in awe at Your creation. I hurt for those who do not feel this joy and are begging you for the chance. You are all-knowing and all-powerful and You know all the plans and desires of our hearts. You are always faithful. I can always count on the fact that even in times of sadness, You will use it to Your glory.
My prayers are overflowing. You know my thoughts and I am confident when I approach Your throne. Whether it be a praise, a promise, or a request, I know that You take them and hold them close to Your heart. For that, Lord, I am amazed and honored.
I feel so much closer to You since you placed Lucy Clare into my life. I feel an abundance of love, joy, worry, excitement and praise when I look at her. I try to think into the future and imagine her loving You. How I hope that I can be an example of Your love in her life. My biggest prayer is that she will come to know You with unfailing love. I pray that she is charismatic in her testimony to You and that she will never go a day without stopping to praise You.
Lord, bless her. Keep her close. Hold her forever in Your palm and comfort her in times of sadness and in joy. Make her life a witness to You. Let others see Your radiant love in her.
I pray for her future, her present, and her past. I pray that You will guide me as a mother. I pray that I can always make just decisions in her life and lead her in a path of righteousness. I pray for our family, for her daddy, who travels so much and misses her dearly. I pray that You will make our family a family for You and that we will always remember that You are the most important being in our lives.
You bless me more than I deserve. Please do not let me ever take You for granted. May I be a light in this world that will shine for You.
I pray Lord Jesus, for children who do not have a mother. I beg of You to wrap them in Your arms. I pray for my own mother, who instilled in me a love for You. I pray for other woman who had an influence in my life.
Lord, You are the lover of my soul, my Jehovah, my King, my Redeemer. You are mighty to save and You pulled me from the miry clay so that I could spend my life in love with You and forever worship You.
Thank You for all You are, and for what You will be. Without You I am nothing, but with You I am everything.
"To live is Christ, and to die is gain." Philippians 1:21
In Your most Holy and Precious Name,
Amen

What a sweet and honest prayer to our Lord!
What a precious and beautiful prayer - all things I pray for but said much more eloquently.
I'm glad you found me too! I will enjoy reading your blog also and seeing sweet pics of Lucy!
What a beautiful, sincere, heart-felt prayer! To God be the Glory! I found your blog from Christy's and think Lucy Clare is just a DOLL! And I told your mom that I love that Clare is spelled that way because of my Anna Clare (she knows the story). Look forward to reading more! Blessings!
