I Give Them To You - In Your Time

Dear Father,

I'm so burdened by the needs of my loved ones. Friends and family that have so much on them that they are weary. Please help them, Lord. There are so many needs such as jobs, houses, cars, clothing, physical, mental and emotional healing. They need You. Spiritual healing from You.

I know you promised to not give more than we could bear, but sometimes it seems so overwhelming that it feels like more than we can bear. Help us to have faith in what you have told us in your Word. That you are with us, no matter what. That you love us with an everlasting and an unfailing love, no matter what we feel. That you are causing all things to work together for our good for those that love you and are called for your purposes.

Help us to look to you first to meet our needs, but use your children (including me!) to brighten the day of someone who is hurting. Help me not to be so caught up in my hurt and needs, to neglect the needs of my fellow brother or sister. It usually brightens my day to be used by you anyway!

Thank you for being sovereign, Lord and answering these prayers, in Your time. You make all things beautiful, in Your time. I sing that to You today.
Your Ragamuffin Girl.
