Prayer for your Thursday

Dear Holy God,
We praise you for who you are, for what you've done for us, and for your faithfulness. We thank you for this week's victories (yeah Maggie) and thank you that we can cast all our cares upon You (Jea, Ed and the kids, Barbara and Christine, Ken and Sarah). We thank you that with every temptation, you make a way of escape, whether it is from addiction, illusion, or idolatry. We ask your blessing on today. We ask you to protect our thoughts and our marriages. We ask you to bless our husbands as they go out and provide for our families; and for our wives who nurture those around them, both in various careers and in their homes. We ask you to shine your light through us today that we might cause others to seek your face. And we ask you for your grace as we stumble through this life; that we would seek to be more like your Son, our Savior. Great is your faithfulness, oh God. We don't deserve it and we thank you for it.
In the name of your Son's matchless name, Jesus.
Amen.
