Something just isn't right

Lord,

Give me the strength that I am so in need of.  Lately, I have been too exhausted and thus, too lazy to do anything.  I need to know why.  It is for peace of mind.  I hate being exhausted, but I am reminded that it could even worse.  I need Your help in this area, Lord.

In Your name,  Lord,

Amen

The past 24 hours

Lord,

For the first time in a while, I dare have to say thank You for keeping me awake for most of the day.  I have had a day or two where I would sleep in front of a computer.  However, I was so tired it seems. I was "drunk".  I was stumbling and I could not stay awake.  I am thankful to be alive and okay.  Thank You.

Sincerely,

Some healing

Forgive me, Father.  Today has been what has best been described as a topsy-turvy day.  I realize now that I am doing better right now.  However, I have a feeling that I will be full of regret later.  I realize however that there is also something wrong with me.  I am a person who doesn't like herself much.  I am supposed to die to myself yet I have failed to do so.  I am so sorry, Lord.  I really could use some forgiveness and healing right about now.  In Your name, Amen.

I need a change

Lord,

Sometimes I forget You.  What I mean is there are times when I am always whiny and complain.  Rarely are the times whenever I thank You.  I also don't take the time to read up and study Your word.  My plan and my goal is to read, study, meditate on Your word.  I need to spend time with You. Jesus, I ask for wisdom and counsel.  You are the ultimate Counselor.  Thank You for Your wisdom, guidance, and discernment of those matters.

Sincerely,

Any resentment

Lord,

Teach me how to say what needs to be said to You.  You have led me to a lot to prayer.  If there is a lot of resentment of unforgiveness in my life.  It I have any unrepentant sin, I would like to know.  I realize that I feel a lot of resentment and I feel that it was a hinderance to answering my prayers.  Father, teach me how to pray.

In Jesus' name,
Amen

Pouring my heart out

Lord,

I want to be with You.  I don't want to be left behind.  I have had this fear for years and finally, I not only feel better, I am better.  It is all because of You, Lord.  I want to be a witness to You.  I ask You for wisdom and guidance, since I don't have anything.  I really wish I knew I was doing in my own life.  I feel as if I cannot do anything right.  Nothing seems right for me.  It is as if everything goes wrong for me.  Maybe I brought it on my own self.  Whatever the case may be, I feel like I have been feeling insulted.  I just have no idea what to do.  It is as if I am just like a child.  That is how I have been treated.  I cannot take it anymore. 

I have been living in fear, anxiety, and intimidation, and these are the reasons why.  I need Your help.  Show me what I need to do.  I ask for wise counsel and discernment.  I am not a child.  I sometimes wonder if there is any love or respect that they have for me sometimes.  Maybe they deep down just don't like me.  I am not so sure.  In a way, I have cared what other people thought for years.  It is I have nothing of my own, no mind of my own, and no self respect. Lord, how do I change that?  How do I break those hard habits, which seem so impossible to do so?  Where do I begin?  I need You to show me and I will do it.  Help me, Lord.  In Your name,
Amen.

To be born again

Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. This man came to Jesus by night and said to him, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God, for no one can do these signs that you do unless God is with him.” Jesus answered him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.” Nicodemus said to him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?” Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you,

Heavenly Father,

What did Jesus mean when He says that we must be born again?  I would like to know how I can be born again.  Your answers are appreciated.

In Jesus' name,

Amen

It is scary.

Jesus,

It is scary.  I should know that I am saved, but I am not sure.  I ask that You would give me discernment in this and all matters.  I admit that when it comes to especially the issue of salvation, I lack discernment.  I am not okay.  All is not well.  I just don't know what else to do.  I am scared.  Maybe I  have spent the last few years or decades with nothing but doubt.  It now makes me wonder if I have lied to myself for those years.  I have had doubts and they are quite troubling.  What is even more troubling is that I should know.  I ask that You would help me and guide me in this matter.  Your answer would be greatly appreciated.

In Your name,

Amen

I need help

Jesus,

I would like to be able to overcome gluttony.  It has been a while since I have prayed about everything else.  I feel like I have not done more in my relationship with You.  I feel like I need to do more.  What is it that I need to do?  Help me, Lord.  Help me.

In Your name,

Amen

Finally learned to take action

Lord,

I finally realized that it is up to me to take action.  Thank You for answering my prayers.  My goal is to lose well to lose weight and keep it off.  I am not so sure of what I want to do.  I have no idea what my limits are and what I can do right now.  If I can fix my hair, put on clothes, and take my meds, then I can take action for my health.  I realize that it could get worse.  I don't want to get to a point where I am taking risks with my health only to have to do it instead of taking action now before I get to that point.  I am beginning to take action now.  Now, all I know to do is to figure out where I need to begin.  Lord, help me to make that first step.  Thank You for everything.

Sincerely,

Drawing closer to the Lord in prayer

Jesus,

I love calling Your name.  Allow me to draw closer to You.  I love Your Name, Jesus.  You are my Lord, my Savior, and You are One with the Father.   May I see that my identity is in You.  May I never forget where I came from.

In Your name,

Amen
