A reflection on the demise of all children of thou nation of Syria

A reflection on the demise of thou children of thou nation of Syria

Heavenly Father,

Thou presence in thy life is one that I acknowledge, and thou presence in thy life is one that I am grateful for, and thou presence in thy life is one that I desire always, and thou presence in thy life is one that doth enable thyself to be at one with thou.

Heavenly Father, there are times when thou presence is one that is felt by many, and there are times when thou presence is one that is desired by many, and there are times when thou presence is one that is acknowledged by many, and there are times when thou presence is one that is, at times, questioned by many.

Heavenly Father, there will be a time in the future when thou presence will be one that will be acknowledged by many, and there will be a time in the future when thou presence will be one that will be accepted by many, and there will be a time in the future when many will turn to thou.

Heavenly Father, many of thou people are unable to see a way forward in a way that is clear, a need to be at one with thou, and many of thou people are unable to see a way forward in a way that is clear, a need to be at one with another, and many of thou people are unable to see a way forward in a way that is clear, a need to be what is described as at peace with another.

Heavenly Father, many of thou people who are unable to see a way forward in a way that is clear a need to be at one with another are thou people who find a self in a situation that can be described as less than desirable. A situation that can, and is described as less than desirable, is for many of thou people one of war. The many who find a self in a situation that is one that is of war are thou people who are, at times, unable to see a way forward in a way that is clear a need to be at one with thou.

Heavenly Father, we acknowledge that there are times when many believe that a war is necessary, and we acknowledge that there are times when many believe a war is unwarranted, and we acknowledge that there are times when some believe a war is futile.

Heavenly Father, there will be a time in the future when there will be a Day of Judgement, and there will be a time in the future when many will need to say sorry for the error of a way, and there will be a time in the future when many will need to make the changes necessary in a life, in order to be able to be at one with thou.

Heavenly Father, much of what is reported in the media is of news that doth sadden thyself, and much of what is reported in the media is of news that doth relate to the demise of thou nation of Syria, and much of what is reported in the media is of news that doth relate to the plight of thou people of thou nation of Syria.

Heavenly Father, the plight of thou people of thou nation of Syria is one that doth sadden thyself, and the plight of thou people of thou nation of Syria is one that doth sadden another. There are a number of reports in the media that doth relate to some of thou children of thou people of thou nation of Syria, and the reports in the media that doth relate to some of thou children of thou people of thou nation of Syria do indicate that all  of thou children of thou people of thou nation of Syria doth need to be ones who are uplifted to thou.

Heavenly Father, there will be a time in the future when the war in thou nation of Syria will be one that will be no longer, and there will be a time in the future when thou people of thou nation of Syria will return to their homes. Many of thou people of thou nation of Syria will have a difficulty in seeing a way forward  in a way that is clear, and many of thou people of thou nation of Syria will have a difficulty in being at one with another. There will be a time in the future when thouself, Our Heavenly Father, will be seen as OurCompassionate Heavenly Father, and there will be a time in the future when thouself, Our Heavenly Father,will be seen as OurCaring HeavenlyFather, and this time in the future will be one when thou people of thou nation of Syria will be at one with thou, and will be at one with another.

Heavenly Father, thou children of thou people of thou nation of Syria are thou children who are at this time somewhat saddened, and thou children of thou people of thou nation of Syria are thou children who are at this time bereft of those who are near, and of those who are dear to a self, and thou children of thou people of thou nation of Syria are thou children who are at this time unable to come to terms with a recent event, and thou children of thou people of thou nation of Syria are thou children who are at this time unable to be what is described as reunited with a loved one.

Heavenly Father, thyself doth desire to uphold to thouself, thou children of thou people of thou nation of Syria, and thyself doth desire for thou to bless all thou children of thou people of thou nation of Syria, and thyself doth desire for thou to provide a number of opportunities before many who are given the task of caring for thou children of thou people of thou nation of Syria, to care for thou children of thou people of thou nation of Syria in a way that is fitting.

Heavenly Father, I uphold all that thyself hath spake in thou name of thouself, Our Heavenly Father, and in thou name of thou Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, and in thou name of thou Holy Spirit, who lives within Man, and who dwells amongst Man, and who advocates for Man, now and always, for evermore.

Amen.

Matthew 5:9

Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called children of God.

Matthew 11:28-30

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

John 14:27

 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid

“Up in a little town in Maine, things were pretty dead some years ago. The churches were not accomplishing anything. There were a few Godly men in the churches, and they said: ‘Here we are, only uneducated laymen; but something must be done in this town. Let us form a praying band. We will all centre our prayers on one man. Who shall it be?’ They picked out one of the hardest men in town, a hopeless drunkard, and centred all their prayers upon him.  In a week, he was converted.  They centred their prayers upon the next hardest man in town, and soon he was converted.  Then they took up another and another, until within a year, two or three hundred were brought to God, and the fire spread out into all the surrounding country.  Definite prayer for those in the prison house of sin is the need of the hour.”

Dr. R.A. Torrey

A reflection on recent times in Syria

Heavenly Father,

We are thankful for thou being with all of Mankind always. We acknowledge that all things are possible through thou if there is a faith and if there is an understanding of thou.

Heavenly Father, it is at this time that we desire to uphold to thou all that has occurred in a time that is recent in thou nation of Syria.

Heavenly Father, we acknowledge that there has been much said in the media about a situation in thou nation of Syria. We are able to see in a way that is clear that many desire a situation in thou nation of Syria to be one that is resolved, and we are able to see in a way that is clear that a situation in thou nation of Syria that many desire to be resolved, is one of where all violence will cease, and is one of where all conflict will cease.

Heavenly Father, we are able to see in a way that is clear that many of thou people of thou nation of Syria have lost a loved one, and we are able to see in a way that is clear that many of thou people of thou nation of Syria have lost a home, and we are able to see in a way that is clear that many of thou people of thou nation of Syria have lost a business, and we are able to see in a way that is clear that many of thou people of thou nation of Syria have become what is described as displaced from a place where a self resides.

Heavenly Father, we ask thou to provide a number of opportunities before many to allow a self to come to terms with a situation that there is in thou nation of Syria, and we ask thou to provide a number of opportunities before many to draw a comfort from those who are dear to a self, and we ask thou provide a number of opportunities before many to draw a strength from those who are dear to a self, and we ask thou to provide a number of opportunities before a self to turn to thou always.

Heavenly Father, we are able to see in a way that is clear that thou United Nations Security Council desires a situation in thou nation of Syria to be one that is resolved, and we are able to see in a way that is clear that thou Arab League desires a situation in thou nation of Syria to be one that is resolved. We are able to see in a way that is clear that thou United Nations Security Council are unable to come to what is described as a common agreement, and we are able to see in a way that is clear that thou Government of thou nation of Syria are unable to come to what is described as a common agreement, and we are able to see in a way that is clear that thou people of Syria, known as a rebel group, are unable to come to what is described as a common agreement.

Heavenly Father, we ask thou to provide a number of opportunities before thou nations of thou United Nations Security Council to reflect upon a need to draw up what can be described as a resolution, and we ask thou to provide a number of opportunities before thou nations of thou United Nations Security Council to be able to see a way forward in a way that is clear that there is a need to draw up a resolution that will be one that will have what is described as a common agreement between all thou nations of thou United Nations Security Council, and will be a common agreement which will mean that all violence will cease, and will be a common agreement which will mean that all conflict will cease.

Heavenly Father, thou sent thou only Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, into thou world to save all of Mankind from all sins, and to show all of Mankind thou way to thou. We hope and we pray that many will reflect upon the error of a way, and we hope and we pray that many will say sorry for the error of a way, and we hope and we pray that many will repent in a way that will incur a change in a life of a self that is necessary.

Heavenly Father, thou art Our Heavenly Father who is loving, and thou art Our Heavenly Father who is compassionate, and thou loves each and every one of us, and thou love that thou hath for all of Mankind is one that is all encompassing, and thou love that thou hath for all of Mankind is one that endures, and thou love that thou hath for all of Mankind is one that is eternal. We acknowledge that thou love that thou hath for all of Mankind is one that enables all of Mankind to love thou neighbour in thou way that thou Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, loves all of Mankind.

Heavenly Father, we ask thou to guide many to see that thou Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, came into thou world to show all of Mankind a peace, and we ask thou to guide many to see that thou Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, came into thou world to show all of Mankind a love that is there for all, and we ask thou to guide many to see that thou Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, came into thou world to show all of Mankind that thou desire is for all of Mankind to live in what is described as harmony with another.

Heavenly Father, we hope and we pray that many will turn to thou, and we hope and we pray that thou people of thou nation of Syria will reflect upon a need to live a life that is described as one that is of peace with another, and we hope and we pray that thou people of thou nation of Syria will reflect upon a need to live a life that is described as one that is of a love for another, and we hope and we pray that thou people of thou nation of Syria will reflect upon a need to live a life that is described as one that is in harmony with another.

Heavenly Father, we uphold to thouself, Our Heavenly Father, all that hath been spake in thou name of thouself, Our Heavenly Father, and we uphold all that hath been spake in thou name of thou Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, who is thou way, and who is thou truth, and who is thou life, and who is thou way to thou, and we uphold to thou now all that hath been spake in thou name of thou Holy Spirit, who lives within Man, and who dwells amongst Man, and who advocates for Man, now and always, for evermore.

Amen.

A reflection on thou peace (one of several)

Heavenly Father,

Thou art Our Heavenly Father who is loving, and thou art Our Heavenly Father who is compassionate, and thou loves each and every one of us. Thou love for all of Mankind is one that is all encompassing, and thou love for all of Mankind is one that is not bound by words, and thou love for all of Mankind is one that is not bound by time, and thou love for all of Mankind is one that is not bound by energy. We acknowledge that thou love for all of Mankind is one that enables all of Mankind to love thou with all of a heart, and with all of a soul, and with all of a mind, and with all of a strength. We acknowledge that thou love for all of Mankind is one that enables thou love for all of Mankind to spill over into a relationship, and we acknowledge that thou love for all of Mankind is one that enables all of Mankind to love thou neighbour, in thou way that thou Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ loves us all.

Heavenly Father, thou art the creator of thou world and all that is in thou world, and thou hath created all things known to all of Mankind, and thou hath created all things unseen by Mankind. Thou hath created all of Mankind to be equal in thou eyes.

Heavenly Father, thou art almighty, and thou art most powerful, and thou art our redeemer, and we praise thou for thou power and for thou mightiness. Thou art Our Heavenly Father that knows all, and thou art Our Heavenly Father who sees all, and thou hath possession of all thou facts. We acknowledge that thou purpose for all of Mankind is of one to draw closer to thou, and we acknowledge that thou purpose for all of Mankind is of one to live a life that emulates thou life of of thou Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ.

Heavenly Father, it is at this time we reflect upon thou nature of peace, and it is at this time we reflect upon thou nature of peace in thou world. We are able to see in a way that is clear that thou Scriptures teach all of Mankind much about living in peace. We are able to see in a way that is clear that thou Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, made peace for all of Mankind by the blood of thou Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, when a physical death of thou Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, occurred upon the cross. We acknowledge that thou Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, died for each and every one of Mankind, and we acknowledge that the death of thou Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, is to show all of Mankind thou way to thou.

Heavenly Father, we are able to see in a way that is clear that thou loves all of Mankind. We acknowledge that thou desire is for all of Mankind to live in peace with another, and we acknowledge that thou desire is for all of Mankind to live a life that can be described as one of harmony with another.

Heavenly Father, we are able to see in a way that is clear that to be a peacemaker there is a need to choose a word carefully always, and at times there is a need to remain silent. We are able to see in a way that is clear that for many this is a difficult task, as for many often the wrong thing is spoke.

Heavenly Father, it is at this time we uphold to thou all nations of thou world where a conflict has arisen, and we ask thou to provide a number of opportunities before all governments of all nations where there is a conflict to resolve a conflict that has arisen, and we uphold to thou in prayer thou nation of Afghanistan, and thou nation of Syria, and thou nation of Libya, and thou nation of Burma, and thou nation of Nigeria, and thou nation of Iraq.

Heavenly Father, we acknowledge that to love an enemy means there is a need to put aside an anger, and we acknowledge  that to love an enemy there is a need to pray for another who has caused an offence.

Heavenly Father, we are able to see in a way that is clear that there is a difficulty for many who live a life in an inner city, and we are able to see in a way that is clear that a difficulty is one that can relate to what is described as a gang warfare, and we are able to see in a way that is clear that a difficulty is one that can be described as one where some are unable to live in a way that thou desires. We acknowledge that for some there is a desire for a power, and we acknowledge that for some there is a desire for what is described as having a self-image, and we acknowledge that for some there is a desire for money.

Heavenly Father, we ask thou to provide a number of opportunities before some to be able to see in a way that is clear that a relationship with thou is one that is preferable, and that a relationship with thou is one that will provide all of Mankind with a need that will and does address a feeling of separation from love.

Heavenly Father, we ask thou to guide all of Mankind in a life that is daily, and we ask thou to guide a self  to turn to thou always.

Heavenly Father, we are thankful that thou art  Our Heavenly Father who is loving, and we are thankful thou art Our Heavenly Father who is forgiving.

Heavenly Father, we uphold to thouself, Our Heavenly Father, all that hath been spake in thou name of thouself, Our Heavenly Father, and we uphold all that hath been spake  in thou name of thou Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, who together with thou Holy Spirit, is thou advocate for all who dwell in thou world, now and always, for evermore.

Amen.

A reflection on the Christian faith

Reflections for the day

Psalm 91:1-2

You who live in the shelter of the Most High, who abide in the shadow of the Almighty, will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress; my God in whom I trust.”

The goal of prayer is the ear of God, a goal that can only be reached by patient and continued and continuous waiting upon Him, pouring out our heart to Him and permitting Him to speak to us. Only by so doing can we expect to know Him, and as we come to know Him better we shall spend more time in His presence and find that presence a constant and ever-increasing delight.

– E. M. Bounds

To pray is to open the door unto Jesus and admit Him into your distress. Your helplessness is the very thing which opens wide the door unto Him and gives Him access to all your needs.

– O. Hallesby

A reflection on the Christian faith (one of several)

Heavenly Father,

At the beginning of Holy Week there is a need to reflect upon a faith as many draw nearer to a thought of when your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, suffered upon the cross for all Mankind. We are able to see in a way that is clear that many have a faith of yourself, Our Heavenly Father, and many accept that your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ died upon the cross for all Mankind, in order to show all the way to you, Our Heavenly Father. We are able to see in a way that is clear that many desire to know you, and we are able to see in a way that is clear that many desire to turn to you.

Heavenly Father, we are able to see in a way that is clear that for some it is difficult to have a faith when an event of a nature that can be described as tragic has occurred in a life. We are able to see in a way that is clear that for some it is difficult to understand a suffering that is experienced. We are able to see in a way that is clear that for many a close relationship with you is one that helps a self to overcome a feeling of anguish, and we are able to see in a way that is clear that there are times when you are able to make your presence known to some.

Heavenly Father, we acknowledge that there are occasions when a spirit is low, and we acknowledge that there are occasions when some feel in a depressed state. On an occasion when there is a feeling that can be described as low, is an occasion when all must turn to you in order to be able to put aside a feeling, and in order to draw a comfort from your presence.

Heavenly Father, we are able to see in a way that is clear that some who do not have a faith will feel angry with yourself, and we are able to see in a way that is clear that some who do not have a faith believe that a loving Heavenly Father would not allow another to suffer. We are able to see in a way that is clear that a number of events happen in a life that are ones that can be described as tragic, and we are able to see in a way that is clear that an event that is tragic is one that will cause another to suffer.

Heavenly Father, it is at this time we ask you to alleviate a suffering that is seen in your world, and it is at this time we desire to uphold to you the people of Afghanistan and the people of Syria. We ask you to provide a number of opportunities before those in Government, and we ask you to provide a number of opportunities before those who are involved in a conflict in a country.

Heavenly Father, there are occasions when some doubt your existence, and there are occasions when some turn a back on you. Heavenly Father, we acknowledge that there is a need to have a belief of the unseen, and we acknowledge there is a need to place a trust in you.

Heavenly Father, there are times when some are faced with a difficulty. We ask you to guide all Mankind to have a deeper understanding of yourself, and we ask you to guide all when a time is difficult, and we ask you to permit some to feel your presence, and we ask you to make your presence known to all who have a doubt in your existence.

Heavenly Father, we uphold to yourself, Our Heavenly Father, all that has been said, in the name of yourself, Our Heavenly Father, and in the name of your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, and in the name of your Holy Spirit, who lives within Man, and who dwells amongst Man, and who advocates for Man, now and always, for evermore.

Amen.

Matthew 5:43-44

Love for Enemies

“You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbour

The prayer that yields the richest rewards of grace is the prayer we pray for our enemies.

CROFT M. PENTZ,

A reflection on peace

Heavenly Father,

We are able to see that for many of us it is difficult to live in peace with all. We are able to see that these difficulties are ones that are often with our families, we are able to see that these difficulties are ones that are often with our friends and we are able to see that these difficulties are ones that are often with our work colleagues. We are able to see that if anger does not dissipate it can cause harm within relationships. We are able to see that often anger can be dispensed with if we are able to say sorry for our actions. We are able to see that forgiveness is an important move to heal relationships.

Heavenly Father, we are able to see that your Scriptures teach us much about living in peace. We are able to see that your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, made peace for us by the blood of the cross. We acknowledge that your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, died for each and every one of us, and we acknowledge that his death was to show us the way to you.

Heavenly Father, we are able to see that you love us all, and we are able to see that it is your desire that we  love our neighbours. We are able to see that to be a peacemaker we need to choose our words carefully on occasions, and we are able to see that at times we may need to remain silent. Heavenly Father, we are able to see that for many of us this is a difficult task, and we are able to see that  for many of us often the wrong thing is said.

Heavenly Father, we are sorry we are unable to remain at peace with our neighbours and we are sorry that sometimes we are unable to forgive.

Heavenly Father, it is at this time we uphold to you those nations where conflict has arisen and we ask you to place opportunities before many to resolve those conflicts that have arisen, and we ask in particular that many uphold in prayer the people of Afghanistan, the people of Syria, the people of Libya and the people of Iraq.

Heavenly Father, we know to love our enemies we need to put aside our anger, and we know we need to pray for those who offend us, and we know that patience, blended with love, will reap a rich reward in our relationship with you.

Heavenly Father, we are able to see that your love for us is one that is all encompassing, and we are able to see that your love for us is one that you desire for us to give to others.

Heavenly Father, we ask you to guide us always in our daily life, and we ask you to help us to see a way forward clearly in settling our disputes, and we ask you to help the governments of all nations, in particular the government of Afghanistan, in particular the government of Syria, in particular the government of Libya, and in particular the government of Iraq, to be able to see a way forward clearly in terms of putting to one side all anger, all bitterness and all differences in order for peace to prevail.

Heavenly Father, we know that we fall short in your expectation to be always at peace with one another, and we know that we need to bring to you all our worries and all our concerns, and we know that you are always with us.

Heavenly Father, we uphold to you now all that we have said in the name of yourself, who is Our Heavenly Father, and who together with your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, and your Holy Spirit, reigns on most high, and is the most supreme power and is the most absolute power that there is, that there was, and that there always will be, now and for evermore.

Amen.

A reflection on the Sanctity of Life

Reflections for the day

Philippians 1:21

For to me, living is Christ and dying is gain.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-2

For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven;

a time to be born, and a time to die;

Listen, my friend! Your helplessness is your best prayer. It calls from your heart to the heart of God with greater effect than all your uttered pleas. He hears it from the very moment that you are seized with helplessness, and He becomes actively engaged at once in hearing and answering the prayer of your helplessness.

Unknown.

A reflection on the Sanctity of Life

Heavenly Father,

We are able to see in a way that is clear that many are able to live a life that is long and fulfilling. We are able to see in a way that is clear that for much of the time a life that is led is one that can be described as one that remains on an even keel. We are able to see in a way that is clear that for many there is a need to be able to cope with the ups and downs that a life brings. We are able to see in a way that is clear that many are able to live to a time that can be described as old. We are able to see in a way that is clear  that for many that is a desire, and we are able to see in a way that is clear that many are able to die in a manner that is fitting.

Heavenly Father, we acknowledge that for some it is not possible to live a life until a self is old. We acknowledge some are unable to see in a way that is clear how to cope with a life. We are able to see in a way that is clear that for some a death would be a preferable outcome. We are able to see in a way that is clear that much has been said in the media about death as a desirable outcome that can be chosen by a self, and we are able to see in a way that is clear that for some that is a desire. We are able to see in a way that is clear that many are unable to come to terms with an outcome of a choice of dying being one that is made.

Heavenly Father, much has been said in the media about what is described as dying in a way that is assisted, and much has been said in the media about euthanasia. We are able to see in a way that is clear that some have a desire for a law of this country to be changed, and we are able to see in a way that is clear that there are many who have a desire for a law in this country to remain the same. We are able to see in a way that is clear that for a Christian this will cause a concern that is deep in terms of permitting what is described as assisting a death, and we are able to see in a way that is clear that many will feel much the same way. We are able to see in a way that is clear that your Scriptures reveal that a life is one that must be given a high regard. We are able to see in a way that is clear that your Scriptures invite all Mankind to have a life that is eternal with you, Our Heavenly Father, and we are able to see in a way that is clear  that this is an outcome that is one that should be desired.

Heavenly Father, we ask you to guide all Mankind to have an understanding of a life that is eternal with you.

Heavenly Father, we acknowledge that much is not not understood about a self, and  much is not understood about a future of a self. We are able to see in a way that is clear that your Scriptures teach all Mankind that you are Our Heavenly Father who knows all, and you are Our Heavenly Father who sees all, and we are able to see in a way that is clear that your Scriptures teach all Mankind that you are Our Loving Father, and you are Our Compassionate Father.

Heavenly Father, we ask you to guide  Mankind to turn to you at a time of sorrow, and we hope and we pray that many will reflect carefully upon the sanctity of life.

Heavenly Father, we acknowledge that there are times in a life when the sanctity of life is disregarded. There is much said in the media about an event that occurs that sadden all. An event is one that can be described as torture, and an event is one that has occurred in your nation of Syria. Heavenly Father, we ask you to provide a number of opportunities to be placed before all Mankind so that an issue, and a concern, that there is for your nation of Syria, can be addressed in a way that will mean a violence will cease, and we hope and we pray that many will make a right choice in terms of a thought, and in terms of a word, and in terms of a deed. Heavenly Father, it is at this time we are thankful for the good works of Amnesty International, and it is at this time we are thankful for the good works of the Red Cross, and it is at this time we are thankful for the good works of the Syrian Red Crescent.

Heavenly Father, it is at this time we uphold to you your people of the nation of Afghanistan and it is at this time we uphold to you all members of Armed Forces. Much has been said in the media about a recent event in Afghanistan, and much of what has happened in a time that is recent  has been less than acceptable, and has been less than desirable for your people of the nation of Afghanistan, and for all members of Armed Forces. We are able to see in a way that is clear that an event that is recent is one that has been tragic, and we are able to see in a way that is clear that an event that is recent has demeaned the sanctity of life. We ask you to comfort all who have been affected by an event that is recent in your nation of Afghanistan.

Heavenly Father, we acknowledge that there are a number of occasions when a life that is bestowed by you upon all is given a regard that is less than desirable. We are able to see in a way that is clear that much has been said in the media about abortion, and we are able to see in a way that is clear that many have a view on a potentiality of a baby that is new born. Heavenly Father, it is at this time we desire to uphold the sanctity of life, and we ask you to provide a number of opportunities before many to reflect carefully upon all issues pertaining to abortion. We acknowledge your desire for a due regard to be given to a new life from a moment of conception. Heavenly Father, we ask you to provide a number of opportunities to be placed before the Government of this country to reflect carefully upon the sanctity of life.

Heavenly Father, we uphold to yourself, Our Heavenly Father, all that has been said in the name of yourself, Our Heavenly Father, and in the name of your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, who together with your Holy Spirit, is the Redeemer of all Mankind, and who is, and who was, and who will always be, the most supreme, and the most absolute power and being, that governs over all who are of this world that we live in, and who will always be the Creator of all life in this world that we live in, now and always, for evermore.

Amen.

A reflection on the power of the Holy Spirit

Heavenly Father,

It is at this time that our thoughts are ones that are centered on an event that has occurred in your world. We are able to see in a way that is clear that there are times when your people are unable to be at one with another. We are able to see in a way that is clear there are places in your world where a conflict is happening. We are able to see in a way that is clear that a conflict can be one that arises through a desire of power. We acknowledge that many desire a situation to be resolved in a way that can be described as peaceful. We are able to see in a way that is clear that a resolution that is peaceful is one that is sought, in the main, by a nation where there is a conflict.

Heavenly Father, it is at this time of Lent we reflect upon the life of your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ. We are able to see in a way that is clear that some can meet another in order to study your Scriptures, and we are able to see in a way that is clear that many are able to to pray with another in a way that will enhance a perception, and a discernment, of all that is read in your Scriptures.

Heavenly Father, we acknowledge that your Holy Spirit lives within Man, and we acknowledge that your Holy Spirit dwells amongst Man, and we acknowledge that your Holy Spirit advocates for Man. We acknowledge that many are able to sense the presence of your Holy Spirit, and we acknowledge that for some a presence is sensed in a way that is described as powerful.

Heavenly Father, we acknowledge that your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, began a ministry by receiving in baptism your Holy Spirit. We are able to see in a way that is clear that a period of Lent is a time when all should reflect upon a ministry undertaken by your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ.

Heavenly Father, we acknowledge that it is a desire of you, Our Heavenly Father, that all of all your people, and all things can be made whole, and are able to become all that is of your intention. We are able to see in a way that is clear that you desire all of Mankind to have a care, and to have a love for another, and that you desire all of Mankind to have a relationship with yourself in a way that can be described as righteous.

Heavenly Father, we acknowledge at a time in the future many will desire to serve you, and many will desire to uphold your name on high.

Heavenly Father, we hope and we pray that your presence is sensed by many in those places in your world where there is a persecution of another for a faith, and for a belief, that is placed in you, and we hope and we pray that your presence is sensed by many in those places in your world where there is a concern of an instability in a structure of a community, and and we hope and we pray that your presence is sensed by many in those places in your world where there is a concern, and where there is a fear of a war.

Heavenly Father, we ask you to guide all Mankind in a daily life, and we ask you to guide many at a time of prayer to be able to perceive, and to be able to discern the presence of your Holy Spirit.

Heavenly Father, we uphold to yourself, Our Heavenly Father, all that has been said in the name of yourself, Our Heavenly Father, and in the name of your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, who together with your Holy Spirit reigns on most high, and lives within Man, and dwells amongst Man, and advocates for Man, now and always, for evermore.

Amen.

A reflection on assurance

Reflection for the day

“To pray in Jesus’ name means to pray in his spirit, in his compassion, in his love, in his outrage, in his concern. In other words, it means to pray a prayer that Jesus himself might pray.”
Kenneth L. Wilson

A reflection on Assurance

Heavenly Father,

It is at this time we reflect upon a  life of a self and we ask you to guide all Mankind to direct a life of a self, and another. We are able to see in a way that is clear that you are in a life of a self, and another always, and we acknowledge that many are comforted by a knowledge that many are able to come to you in prayer with a worry, and with a concern.

Heavenly Father, we are able to see in a way that is clear that many desire to seek out a purpose of a life of a self. We are able to see in a way that is clear that you, Our Heavenly Father, has a plan for all. We acknowledge that many have a desire to follow your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ.

Heavenly Father, we acknowledge that your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, is the way to you. We are able to see in a way that is clear that by your grace a self is granted the presence of your Holy Spirit within a self, if a self is able to put aside an anxiety, and if a self is able to put aside a worry, and if a self is able to put aside a dismay, and if a self is able to put aside a sadness.

Heavenly Father, we acknowledge that many are able to see in a way that is clear that a life that is lead is one that is not desirable at times. We are able to see in a way that is clear that there is a need to reflect on a life in terms of a wrong doing. We acknowledge in order to have a life that is eternal with you, Our Heavenly Father, there is a need to proffer a sorrow for the error of a way, and there is a need to incur a change in a life that is one that will reflect a repentance.

Heavenly Father, we are thankful there is an assurance of your presence in all lives of all Mankind, and we are thankful that there is an assurance of a life that is eternal with you if a back is turned upon a concern that is worldly, and if there is a desire and a will to draw closer to you through prayer, and if there is a desire and a will to draw closer to you through a study of your Scriptures, and through a proffering of a sorrow for an error of a way, and with a will to incur a change in a life that is necessary.

Heavenly Father, we acknowledge all who are of this world who suffer. We are able to see in a way that is clear there are many of your world who require what is described as an aid that is humanitarian.

Heavenly Father, we ask you to guide the many who are able to aid another who is in need.

Heavenly Father, we hope and we pray that all of Mankind will turn toward you. We are thankful that your care is for all Mankind, and we are thankful that all are able to come to you in prayer, and we are thankful that through your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, all are able to be shown the way to you.

Heavenly Father, we uphold to yourself, Our Heavenly Father, all that has been said in the name of yourself, Our Heavenly Father, and in the name of your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, who together with your Holy Spirit, is, and was, and will always be, the most supreme, and the most absolute power and being, who governs all who are of this world that we live in, now and always, for evermore.

Amen

A reflection on a charitable giving

A reflection for the day

 “Our prayer must not be self-centred. It must arise not only because we feel our own need as a burden we must lay upon God, but also because we are so bound up in love for our fellow men that we feel their need as acutely as our own. To make intercession for men is the most powerful and practical way in which we can express our love for them.” John Calvin

A reflection on a charitable giving

Heavenly Father,

It is at this time of Lent we reflect upon a meaning of a charitable giving. We acknowledge that many give in a way that is financial to uphold what is described as a charity, and we acknowledge that there are many charities that provide a relief for your people, which is a relief for a situation that a number of your people are placed.

Heavenly Father, we acknowledge that there are a number of situations in your world at this time where a number of your people are poor, and where a number of your people are marginalised, and where a number of your people are exploited. We uphold to you the works that are good of a charity called The Red Cross whose works that are good enable another to survive.

Heavenly Father, we acknowledge that there are times when a charity is unable to work in a way that can be described as freely. We are able to see in a way that is clear that such a situation exists in your nation of Syria. We acknowledge that a number of your people who are agents of The Red Cross have been placed in a danger. Heavenly Father, we ask you to permit a guidance to all who are of The Red Cross to be able to see a way forward in a way that is clear that in order to complete a work that is good that a danger needs to one that is assessed, and that a danger is one that needs to be taken into account, before an act of good is carried out.

Heavenly Father, we hope and we pray that Mankind will reflect carefully upon a giving that is charitable. We hope and we pray that all of Mankind will reflect upon a desire of yours to be charitable in a thought, and to be charitable in a deed toward another. Heavenly Father, we hope and we pray that all will turn a back on a thought, and all will turn a back on a deed of selfishness, and that all will turn toward you, who is Our Caring Heavenly Father, and who is Our Compassionate Heavenly Father, who loves each and every one of us.

Heavenly Father, we uphold to yourself, Our Heavenly Father, all that has been said in the name of yourself, Our Heavenly Father, and in the name of your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, and in the name of your Holy Spirit, who lives within Man, and who dwells amongst Man, and who advocates for Man, now and always, for evermore.

Amen

A reflection on the need to love

A reflection for the day

Matthew 5:44 But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you,

A reflection on love

Heavenly Father,

We are able to say that there are many situations in your  world that are undesirable, and we are able to say that those situations are a cause for concern. Those situations are ones that need a careful consultation, and those situations are ones where human lives are at risk.

These areas of concern are ones that are likely to spiral out of control, and these areas of concern are ones that need immediate action. There are many cases where Man is inadequately protected, and there are many  cases where humanitarian aid is required. There are many of us who desire to see that these situations are resolved in a peaceful way.

Heavenly Father, there are times in our lives when we feel vulnerable, and there are times in our lives when we feel unsafe. Many desire to know, and many desire to feel the love that you have for us, which we know is an everlasting love, and which we know is a love that is ever present.

The love that we have for you, Our Heavenly Father, is one that you desire should fill our hearts, is one that you desire should fill our minds,is one that you desire should fill our souls, and is one that you desire should fill our strength. A  love such as this, which is an awesome love, is one that enables all to put you, our Heavenly Father, first. A love such as this, which is an awesome love, is a  love that is one that will and does enrich all relationships, and a love such as this, which is an awesome love, is a love that enables all to put all others  first.

Heavenly Father, it is at this time, we ask you, that you are able to help us to see a way forward clearly  to love one another. Heavenly Father, it is at this time, we ask you, that you are able to help us to see a way forward clearly so that we are able to forgive one another, and we ask that Man is able to clearly see the error of a way.

Heavenly Father, we are able to see that there is not a common agreement about the crisis in Syria, and that is of a concern, and not the outcome we are looking for. Heavenly Father, if there was more love in your world we would not be faced with the situations that exist in your countries, which are often described as war-torn.

Heavenly Father, you are all seeing and you are all knowing, and you know of all situations where a prayer needs to be upheld in order for peace to prevail, and in order for love to co-exist .

Heavenly Father, we hope and we pray that Mankind can resolve their differences; we hope and we pray that Man can put a neighbour first; we hope and we pray that Man is able to turn to you; and we hope and we pray that Man is able to perceive, and that Man is able to discern, your power, and your might, and all of your glory.Heavenly Father,you are a loving Father who cares for each and everyone of us always.

Heavenly Father, we uphold to you now all that has been said, in the name of yourself, Our Heavenly Father, and in the name of your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, and in the name of your Holy Spirit, who is, and who was, and who will always be, the most supreme and the most absolute power and being, that advocates for all who are of this world that we live on, now and always, for evermore.

Amen.
