Dear Heavenly Father,
Praised are you my Lord and may your holy name be praised in the heavens above and on the earth below for ever and ever.
Thank you for bringing me to this day, 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, please grant me the strength and the wisdom to walk in your word and to show your love. Please fill my heart with mercy so that I may be forgiving to others just as you have been forgiving with me. I ask that you never remove your face from before and that you fill my life with your light and your peace.
Father, I am so grateful to you for sparing my mother and sister the brunt of your storm. Thank you for bringing them through your torrent unscathed and alive. Your grace and your mercy are truly never ending. Your love for your children reaches beyond the heavens and your goodness rules always. Father, thank you for sparing them and the millions of others who could have had it much worse than could have been. However, there are still millions who lost their possessions and homes during this storm. The recovery will be years in the US and in the Caribbean Islands. Please be with those people my God as they try to find a new way to live their lives after this devastation, who will have to rebuild their homes, and the countries will have to rebuild their infrastructure. I am so glad you gave me the opportunity to see these islands before their destruction and I pray that someday I'll be able to return to those Islands and witness your beauty there once again. Father, thank you for sparing all those I love, not just my family in Florida, but also my Cruise Brothers family, and those friends who live in that State. Father, as your wrath continues, please protect Lori, Bill, Daily, Lisa and Lenny from the floods that are on their way to their homes. Please keep them all safe and dry, and have mercy on them.
Blessed are you O Lord our God the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob who turns his wrath at his will.
Amen!
