Pray for Families (Renewal in the Stillness)

Greetings Prayer Warriors,


Now that summer is in full swing, many have taken a vacation, are on one, or have plans for one.  Whether yours is simple or grand, it is important to spend some leisure time to refresh, regroup, and reconnect with your family both physically, emotionally,  and spiritually.  When we remove ourselves from stressors, we return to being our authentic selves, one that best reflects the image and likeness of God. 


Do not conform yourselves to this age but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and pleasing and perfect.  Romans 12:2


Lord, we pray for the ability to quiet our minds, and be present to those in our lives.  Help us to focus on the other and let go of the running to-do list in our minds.  Quiet our souls, so that we can live in the moment and see the love and  joy you want to bestow upon us..   Protect us as we travel, and direct  your angels to guide us along the way.  Bless us with the graces needed to form lasting bonds and cherished memories with our family members.  Jesus, we trust in your everlasting love! Amen.


Be still and know that I am God!  Psalm 46:10


Pray for one another.  And if you can’t be with family due to circumstances, connect your heart to them in prayer and ask the Lord to shower them in graces that renew.


May I profit from you in the Lord. Refresh my heart in Christ.  Philomen 1:20


Peace, Joy, and Love,

Janet 


Be still, and then challenge another to do the  same.  Pass it on!
