9 Iyyar 5777

Dear Heavenly Father,

Praised are you my Lord and may your holy name be praised in the heavens above and on the earth below forever and ever.

Thank you for bringing me to this day, the 20th day of the counting of the omer, the sixth day of the third week.  Thank you for waking me and breathing life into my soul.  Thank you for blessing me with one more day to spend with those I love and one more chance to be your light in this world.  Father, I pray that you grant me the strength and the wisdom to walk in your word and to show your love.  I ask that you place an abundance of mercy into my heart so that I may be as forgiving to others as you have been with me.

Father, please help guide me along my path.  My soul yearns for your help as I decide on whether or not to retire from my job and move to Florida.  I ask for you to guide me in this decision and that you lift your face up to me and lead me in the direction you want me to travel.  You are my guiding light, just as you were to my ancestors when you led them out of Egypt.  For you led them by a pillar of smoke during the day, and by fire at night.  You laid out their course in the wilderness and they followed wherever you led.  You brought them to the exact place you wanted them to go, to the place where you chose to place your name, a land flowing with milk and honey.  Please Father, help me, and guide me.  Lead me to the place you choose.

Blessed are you O Lord our God, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob who led his children from bondage to freedom.

Amen!
