When we start writing down that which we are praying to God it is amazing to me how much I feel connected to God. And even when I quit writing and do other things I am aware I am praying to God from my heart. Much more I find I am actually doing what Paul said.
I Thessalonians 5:17 Pray without ceasing.

* Please take away irrational worldly concepts that would lead me in ways of this world or wrong ways and set me in scriptural ways. So many things are unnecessary while seeming important.
Luke 10
38 Now it came to pass, as they went, that HE entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received HIM into her house.
39 And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard HIS word.
40 But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to HIM, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.
41 And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things:
42 But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.

* Please create in me a clean heart, O God ; and renew a right Spirit within me. (Psa. 51:10) Strengthen me, please. Raise me up in the Word today. Give me Your rest and peace this morning and straighten me out if I have any thinking that is not of God. Help me to see the right time according to your watch.
*Please help me to make the peaceful choice in my own life today. and one that will edify the church.
Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
1 Thessalonians 5: 21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
I believe writing out these prayers are good. It seems to help me remember to pray throughout the day. I feel much calmer after doing this. And somehow it makes me know YOU are in charge.
Matthew 24 Jesus says:
4 ...Take heed that no man deceive you.
5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
(Their actions show what they really are.)
