Magical

Dear Jesus,

I just want to take this moment not to talk about anything in particular.

I just want to say that I appreciate all the good things that you have bought into my life.

I want to thank you for changing me and helping me see what is worthy and important in this life.

Its not easy and I have a long long way to go. But what you have done has been priceless.

What you do for us all, in and through us is magical.

Thank you.

In your Name,

Amen

The Right Track

Dear Jesus,

Im fed up. Fed up of work. Fed up of life. Sometimes i’m even fed up of people.

Did you feel this way. Did you feel like giving up and not caring? Did you feel like just doing what you wanted to do?

That is how I feel right now. And I feel that that is what I am doing.

Lord I need encouragement and strength to be focused again. 

To go back on the right track that you intended for me.

In your Name,

Amen

Keep Our Souls Safe

Dear Jesus,

If theres one thing I can think of that is not gauranteed, its life.

It is not secure, it is not my own and It is not forever.

Anything can happen to us at any moment. 

Lord I pray for the relatives of the people lost on the flight to Egypt.

It is saddening and I can only imagine what they are going through and what those people lost went through.

Comfort them at this time for I know you are the best friend anyone can have.

Keep our souls safe no matter what happens.

In your Name,

Amen

Back Home

Dear Jesus,

Its a blessing to be able to travel. To experience the kind of lives that other people live.

To learn about other cultures and ways of life. To connect with our own roots and stay connected.

To go back where we call home.

I know some people who are travelling today.

Keep them safe and secure on their flight back home.

The same way you keep us safe and secure in life till we are called back home where you are.

In your Name,

Amen

Love is…

Dear Jesus,

Love is a complicated thing to understand.

It conjures so many thoughts and questions in my mind.

How others can confidently tell someone I love you is a brave thing to do and I really respect that.

But at the same time I know one thing that Love is valuable. In fact its value is unmeasurable. 

Love should never hurt. That I know. Love should never abandon. That I know.

But there is so much more to learn about Love.

In your Name,

Amen

Letting Go

Dear Jesus,

Letting go is not an easy task.

Especially when that letting go involves something so invaluable and precious to us. 

But sometimes letting go is a good thing to make room for other opportunities and goals we desire for our lives. 

To make those things a reality.

Lord help us to understand what is right to let go of and what to aspire for. 

In your Name,

Amen

Decisions

Dear Jesus,

Life is full of decisions.

Big one and little ones. Experience has taught me which ones are the important ones.

Thank you. What I have learnt is invaluable and will carry me the rest of the way.

But there are decisions many of us have to make that we have little experience about.

The good thing is that you give us wisdom and the ability to think, reason and critique.

You guide us in ways that will get us problem solving and remembering.

Thank you.

In your Name,

Amen

Pleasing you vs Pleasing another

Dear Jesus,

Relationships can be complicated.

Whats right for one person isn’t right for another.

What one person should be investing in another person should be investing in another.

Teach us what is important in our situations single, dating or married. 

It says in your bible that it is good to be single because we can invest our time in pleasing you but to be married also means investing our time in pleasing another. 

I believe both of these things are beautiful.

In your Name,

Amen
