Pray for your light to shine Glorious Son beams so bright So that everyone who sees you Shall yearn to grow closer Not to you – but to Him The One who lives within Pray for joy to fill your heart So that everyone you see Hopes to know the One you know The answer to every need The promise that never fails to bring peace Pray for your spirit to sing a song Of faith that fills up every thought Assurance that God’s one and only Son Will bring you through whatever obstruction Any place where you feel completely troubled Pray for the grace that will be with you When you reach out to others around you Whispering mercy that comes from on high Welcoming the chance to be a true friend To someone who needs a taste of kindness Pray for those who are lost and lonely, afraid Filled with anxiety, depression and pain The ones who God can bring through the storm Into the light, where He will reassure And lead them into a relationship with His Son Pray for the many who know nothing of love Those who God can touch with second chances And heal from all the dread of disease and disgrace Those that need Him more than they know Because without him, they have no real hope Pray for the light to shine in your eyes Sparkling with hope, faith and love A spirit of goodness that comes from God’s Son The One who forgives and gives us Today, tomorrow and eternity in paradise. Matthew 7:7-8 King James Version (KJV) 7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

Regina, what a talent you are. You exhibit such care for others who are lost, needy and afraid! Our world is loaded with them acting out Lives with grand bravado. They do not know they are lost! As I write this, does TV really have to advertise underwear? Gee! Love Panagiota

Thanks so much, Panagiota - God gives me the words and I give them back to Him. There is so much evil in the world, but I'm grateful for God's Son, my everything. I love you and pray for you - You're a blessing
