Mud

Dear God,

You cloth us with the finest apparel and yet we still want to play in the mud. You want only the best from us and yet we still fall short. We want to grow and be closer to you, Lord. We want what is right in your eyes. Help us to discern what is of this world and what is of your world. When there is a fork in the road, guide us toward your path. Shine your light so we may know your way through all the trees. Guide us with your compass so we don’t get lost. 

Lord, thank you for our parents. We are blessed to have them in our lives. We are blessed they care even at our age. Lord, help us to be the parents you are to us. Help us guide our children and grandchildren in your way. 

Lord, I pray for good outcomes and direction this week. In your name, Amen.
