Fuzzy

Loving God,

We lift up Fuzzy in prayer this week.  We thank you for the gift of her presence in our lives.  May you fill her with an abundance of your grace as she does her best to raise her children in a loving household.  We thank you for our own mothers that you have given us, whose love is so precious that it can never be measured, whose patience seems to have no end.  May we see your loving hand behind them and guiding them.  We pray for those mothers who fear they will run out of love or time, or patience.  We ask you to bless them with your own special love.  We ask this in Christ's name.
Amen.

Paul

Lord, we thank you for the love you have poured out upon our family and we thank you for the gift of Paul. Bless him as he lives out his vocation of loving husband and father. Give him the graces he needs this day, and every day, in the workplace and at home. Continue to draw him ever closer to yourself and keep him safe. May his life be a witness to your peace, love, and mercy. Lord, teach us all to be generous; to serve you as you deserve; to give and not to count the cost; to fight and not to heed the wounds; to toil and not to ask for rest; to labor and not to ask for reward, save that of knowing that we do your will. Amen.

Ashley


Dear Lord, today we turn to you to give you thanks for Ashley. Please help her to remain a loving mother to her children and to keep balance in her life. Help her to remember that you are with her in every packed hour of every day. Give her the grace to maintain her loving life at home; and the deepest knowledge in her heart that you love her. Strengthen her when she is down and give her hope when she is discouraged. Amen.
