PRIDE Month 2025

 

 To believe is to love, to take action is to live! What action do you do on a daily basis that makes the world a better place? This month we are celebrating life! In all it's glory and pain. It takes effort to live on this planet but it's worth it!! Love is the key that unlocks all possibilities and guides the way! 

 

 Each person is a beautiful creation of God to be celebrated!

Every life counts! Every life makes a difference! 

  Psalm 139:14. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
    your works are wonderful,
    I know that full well.

1 Corinthians 13: 4-8. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. ⁵ It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. ⁶ Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. ⁷ It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. ⁸ Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.

Galatians 3:28. There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

 

God had a dream to create beings in like image to have fellowship, conversation, and share the beauty of creation with.That relationship with God has been restored through Jesus Christ.

2 Corinthians 5: 18-19. All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: ¹⁹ that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.

God wants to walk with us and fellowship with us.  

He wants to hear our story and share our life with Him!

 Just like Spring when everything comes alive again,

God wants to dwell in our hearts and bring new life! 

And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us. Romans 5:5.

God, pour out your Spirit over all people so they will know you love them! Help us to love each other and let your ways be our guide.

God, help everyone who is afraid to feel your peace. Restore the mental health of our nation.

God, have mercy on us and help us to change our ways to those that will bring healing to our planet and to our beings.

Help us to be at peace with each other in our homes, our communities, our cities and between nations. 

Grant every nation leaders who will make the right provisions for the vulnerable and everyone in need.

 

In Jesus' name, amen.

February 2025

  Welcome to my monthly blog which contains prayers, scriptures from the Bible and links to music videos some of which are based on the Christian faith.

 

 The magic is in you to love!!

If you don't feel it, then do some simple acts of kindness to others and it will fill your heart!

Keep Loving, Empty Hands music, click here!

 The best way we can experience the fullness of life is to love others. As we give it away to others through our actions and what we say, love will heal us and flow through us to bring healing to those around us.

Its like a song ever present in your heart!

The Prayer, Charice and The Canadian Tenors (click here)

 Let's keep loving and keep up hope! Love those around you in
your immediate world while continuing to pray for peace throughout the planet.

 Being Kind, Empty Hands Music, click here!

Prayers from the heart are always heard!

Even our sighs, our strongest desires unspoken! 

 

What we are praying for:

God watch over and protect all the couples in our city who have bonded and wish to have a home together. Protect their relationship, their family and possessions. May they have the love, respect and fellowship with family, friends and neighbours they need and deserve. Help them to be true to each other for life and turn to you when life gets tough.

God help everyone in our city to get along peacefully. Help us to encourage those alone and lonely. Help neighbours to be kind to all in need and keep each other safe.

God, pour out your Spirit and change our hearts to be loving and kind to one another as you planned we should be.

God, please touch everyone who is afraid and who is alone during this time. Fill their hearts with your peace and help them to find their place in community.

God, help our cities provide proper shelters and warming centers for the homeless. Grant those in charge the wisdom to know what has to be done to provide for the needs of the homeless. Help them to solve the opioid crisis and provide safe places for those suffering from addiction.

God, grant our government the wisdom and insight to deal with the challenges that we face with other countries. Grant them the wisdom to keep our country united, prosperous and free.

God, help us worldwide to find peace between all nations. May your righteous ways be upheld. May peace and justice for all prevail. May your name be honoured and be freely shared.

Scriptures and meditations:

Romans 8: 32, 38-39.

If God would give up his son for us, wouldn't he give us all our needs too?
Nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God
that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord. 

1 John 4:7. 

Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God.

1 John 4:18. 

There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear.  

 

Thanks for praying with us!

Keep on sharing the love!!

January 2025

 Happy New Year!!

Welcome to the prayer blog for January 2025!

We are more than flesh and blood! We are spirit, we are light, we are love!

Keep Loving, Empty Hands Music, click here!

 

God hears all our desires, our hopes for the future, our dreams,
our thoughts about our most basic needs, and our cares for those closest to us. God looks at those as prayers and cares for us.  

Human Condition, Unspoken(click here)

Matthew 10:29-31. Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care. And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

Let's keep loving and being kind so other's are helped and encouraged!

Matthew 5:16. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven. 

Galatians 6:9.  And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.

What we are praying for:

 

 God, we pray that this New Year people everywhere will experience your love, your peace, and that they will have the inspiration, the resources, the courage and the strength to start their lives anew! We pray that they will not be afraid to let go of the things they have outgrown and start new ways of looking at their world and new ways of doing things. 

 

God, help our world leaders to serve in their positions with honour and righteousness. Help all governments to strive for peace and help them to solve the problems of climate change, disease, addiction and poverty.

God, please pour out your Spirit. Fill us with your love that we may know you!
