Dear God there are moments in life when one must pause and say, "if it had not been for the Lord on my side were would I be." Birthdays are those moments in time as the years speed by and the moments become so precious I reflect this morning on the goodness of God. Thank you for ordering my steps and directing my path. Thank you for a consciousness to make you the center of my joy. You have placed so many people who have become family and friends. You have minimize any who would possibly be a foe. Your word is true, "no weapon formed against you shall prosper." Thank you for your protection. Thank you for your provisions. The awesome reality of life forces me to understand that life's steps into the future led me to you. Therefore, "lead me and guide me all the way." I continue to pray for all who are within the community of faith. I pray for those who still remain outside of the ark of safety. I believe the arc of the universe is guided by your unseen hand. "Father I stretch my hands to thee no other help I know." In the holiness of this moments my your will continue to be done in my life and the lives of all those you love. Amen.
