Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

✝️ Weekly Devotional, Monday June 15, 2026


✝️ Posting for WP
AMEN!
(1) Hebrews 10: 5, 7
5 Therefore, when Christ came into the world,
He said: “Sacrifice and offering you did not desire,
but a body you prepared for me;
7 Then I said, ‘Here I am—it is written about Me in the scroll—
I have come to do Your will, my God.’ ”
[Psalm 40:6-8]
(2) Hebrews 6:20 where our forerunner, Jesus, has entered on our behalf.
He has become a high priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek.
(3) Hebrews 9:24 For Christ did not enter a sanctuary made with human hands
that was only a copy of the true one; He entered heaven itself,
now to appear for us in God’s presence.
(4) Hebrews 4:14 Therefore, since we have a great high priest
who has ascended into heaven, Jesus the Son of God,
let us hold firmly to the faith we profess.
(5) Ephesians 1: 3, 11
3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
who has blessed us in the heavenly realms
with every spiritual blessing in Christ.
11 In Him we were also chosen [or were made heirs]
having been predestined according to the plan of Him
who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of His will,
(6) Ephesians 1:18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened
in order that you may know the hope to which He has called you,
the riches of His glorious inheritance in His holy people,
(7) 1 Corinthians 3:21-23
21 So then, no more boasting about human leaders!
All things are yours,
22 whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas [Peter]
or the world or life or death or the present or the future—
all are yours,
23 and you are of Christ, and Christ is of God.
1 John 5:20 We know also that the Son of God has come
and has given us understanding,
so that we may know Him who is true.
And we are in Him who is true by being in His Son Jesus Christ.
He is the true God and eternal life.
Good lesson today from
WP post & Spurgeon
“the believer’s High Priest in Heaven,
seated at the Father’s right, ever living to make
intercession for us (Romans 8:34)”
Amen 🕊 💕
☘️
The Hail Mary
Hail, Mary, full of grace,
the Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou amongst women
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
A gorgeous song from the past
Thanks, Garrison.. very enjoyable
I think so, too, Benzy. Thanks for your kind words. . . 🙂
This looks like what I’m watching outside my kitchen window right now in coastal Maine. Minus the buildings and add lots of trees and birds. 😌
Yep, really good music can do that. Glad you enjoyed, friend Kurt.

Jazmine Crockett stated “black people do not pay taxes” … is that how/why her “rich” parents were able to afford to send her to very expensive private schools??
irs ?!
IRS ??!!
I. R. S. ???!!!
And now … LOL … Obama & Mooch owe multiple “minority” contractors and subcontractors unpaid building expenses for his “presidential” monstrosity – ranging from hundreds of thousands of dollar$ to million$ on the project … and … his Presidential Center Foundation has run into financial and has yet to establish the promised “$470 million safety net” to guard against a public bailout.
The Foundation only has $1 million in the fund supposedly for ongoing maintenance that I believe they forecast to be $10 million a year ongoing for that ugly sorry excuse for a building. – so that will leave the Illinois taxpayers footing the bill on a project that the State of Illinois donated to this creature for $10!!!!
Interesting, that Obama doesn’t make his home there.. choosing instead DC, Oahu, and Martha’s Vineyard. Wonder why? No, I don’t really wonder – what I really wonder is why he is still in the country at all. Traitor.
Pretty sure that dish is poisoned.

Heartbreaking!
Our Israeli David found a 10-second clip that speaks to . . .
What Was PROMISED and What Was DONE:
https://rumble.com/v7baza0-what-was-promised-and-what-was-done..html?mref=1htl22&mrefc=7
I see what was “asked for” by President Trump – a call to action for the Iranian people to rise. I’ve discussed at length here why the Iranian population doesn’t rise up – out of fear of genocide – fears that have come to fruition and resulting in the massacre of around 35K to 40K in a single period of uprising.
I’ve seen nothing about what was done, but have concerns over this war’s end seemingly focused on the Strait of Hormuz and less about liberating the Iranian people to build their own commerce safely and democratically.
Is there more to this than what is posted? I’m failing to see “promises not kept”, nor do I see any of what the MOU details. I’m interested.
JWoo: President Trump said from the beginning that he would clearly notify the Freedom-Seeking Iranians WHEN it was safe to come out to rise up and take back their Country from the evil, bloodthirsty, Jihadi Iranian Regime.
PDJT also spoke several times about arming them and ASSISTING them.
NONE of that ever happened that I’m aware of.
I was listening VERY closely.
David initially had been so focused about WHEN the uprising would / could occur.
I recall reassuring David that PDJT had clearly said that PDJT would notify the Freedom-Seeking Iranians and would help them.
Here is a collection of items David has posted in the last 24-ish hours (that I’m aware of):
👇
Our Israeli David has finally written and posted about his research / discovery on the Iran “Deal”:
“Iran is getting immediate sanctions relief while giving up nothing — no uranium, no ballistic missile program, no proxies, nothing.
“In fact, it’s worse than before the war. Billions of dollars to fuel terrorism across the Middle East.
“And the US is now the protector of Hezbollah. Israel is prohibited from attacking the Nazi organization. Will never happen.
“All the Iranian media and senior official are mocking the US and praising how they defeated the weak Americans.
“Trump flipped after his China visit.
“He chose money over…”
********************************
Our Israeli David’s post on Israel defending herself:
“We had three drones fired at our north town.
“We responded with a strike in Beirut.
“When Iran fired at an American helicopter last week the U.S. responded much stronger.
“Asking Israel to stand down when its civilians are under fire is not right.
“I will not get into the details of this deal.
“It’s the Obama deal on steroids.
“Will make Iran rich again.”
********************************
both of the above quotes are on this page:

********************************
Our Israeli David’s post of 1 of the 3 Hezbollah drones to hit a North Israel town over the weekend:

********************************
Also, this 10-second clip our Israeli David posted on his channel overnight is SO heartbreaking with regard to the Freedom-Seeking Iranians!
👇
https://rumble.com/v7baza0-what-was-promised-and-what-was-done..html?e9s=src_v1_upp_v
********************************
The reason I think differently about Israel than many I know is because I seek for truth about Israel from among the more “right ones” in Israel than the “lefty ones”. To many in the USA listen to whatever sounds good to them than they do the more measured voices from Jewish folks like David. We haven’t “finished the job”. We will never do so. Sometime in the near future, the One who watches over Israel will “finish the job”.
Thanks for the info, IHYN. I’m very interested in the details of this new MOU. Just the fact that’s it’s an MOU and not something a bit more formal makes me apprehensive.
One cannot… I mean cannot… negotiate with terrorists.
My ex-wasband… (hat tip burro) was in military intelligence. We talked about the first Gulf War, why Saddam Hussein was not initially immediately removed during that conflict. He told me it was because the “next in lines” were worse than him.
That has always given me great pause when hearing about the United States conducting regime change. And with our current internal political structure, removing one sadist… and the next man up saying “hold my beer” and now we have lunatic Madmani running NYC. WTH?!
I care about the Iranians because I have a dear friend who witnessed up close and personal the tyranny and violence and her family is still there. One of the purist hearts and deeply intellectual. A professing Christian, which is punishable by death. The people long to be free… not to leave their country and migrate… but to freely build their own economy and restore it to invite tourism and commerce.
I long to be in a world again where we feel we WANT to visit other countries. The globalists are quickly, too quickly, closing their doors. No one wants to travel to where they may have their head lopped off or their daughters and sons raped and murdered.
And we sure as all get out…. don’t want it here!
To God be the glory and may He set His people free.
PDJT does not know how to negotiate with terrorists (does not understand Jihadi mindset), IMO.
*************
About the quotes of David above, although he is REALLY upset I imagine, he is VERY careful not to state things as fact if he’s still unsure; and tells us plainly if he’s offering his opinion only.
*************
You’ll find a few of David’s video clips on his Rumble channel to be of interest (as would your ex) I imagine:
👇
One shows the Father, Khamenei, who we killed, with David’s description that the Son (supposedly now in charge) is much WORSE.
Another shows Mamdani with his people, as David describes them, praying on the ground in public in NYC.
*************
I also have known Persians (Iranians) personally and found them extraordinarily warm, loving, inspiring, smart.
These are either Christians or Jewish Iranians. NOT Muslim.
Very special people with whom Israelis feel are like cousins.
*************
His channel is easy to find if you wish:

I found a new joy in life.
Usually I am upset how captions always get it wrong. But watching it get the words to a famous song wrong is amazing. The words to Aretha’s Think are all over the internet. But nobody bothered to correct the captions.
Watching again and enjoy how it has trouble. Even with words sung clearly.
I’m enjoying how it’s creating new words – apparently transcribing from audio and the icing on the cake is how news organizations that want to be considered relevant can’t bother to get a good old fashioned proof reader!

Howdy bro!
@duchess – Don’t know what’s kept me from doing it for so long. (Time, apprehension, all the distractions the devil throws at me. I guess God plucked me right out of that job!)
I can’t stop writing. I absolutely love it. I feel like I’m “going rogue” for Jesus… for Savannah… for me. Dreamed about it. Got up in the middle of the night – another posting.
Still love the Treehouse and our friends, but Sundance will likely be glad I’m not taking up so much space here.

Something crossed my yet to be fully caffeinated brain this morning as I read an article on American Thinker about 2A: if the left can rig a national election and get away with it they will rig a constitutional amendment vote once they think they have enough states they can rig and can get away with it.
It is amazing what can be done with 20% of America supporting you while controlling all the institutions. 50-50 is media controlled idiocy. And a lot of government funded Democrat politics.
Funny though that they don’t go that route. They only need to get State legislators to agree. 37 out of 50. Within a set period of time. Just give the people what they want and they don’t have to steal elections.
Oh yeah. Only 20% of the people really want what the left wants. 50-50 is doable via media controlled dupes. But can they even dream of ever getting close enough to 67% to cheat that one in.
“20% of American’s supporting?”
Does 20% of Americans even HAVE the money to wield support or strong-arm policies anymore?
I say “Follow the money”, Jim in TN
Thanks. There is a good man in our local government who is sold on having a Convention of States. I will frame the question using your insight.
Maybe I can get him to see that the people who want a CoS do not have good intentions.

April this year! Good to see.
Look out for a group called ALEC (American Legislative Exchange Council) – they do work to update State constitutions – and I am still investigating what I can about them without actually being amongst them – I know people within the system, but not well enough. Trying to figure out if they’re good guys or bad guys.
“The American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization that connects conservative state legislators with private sector representatives to draft and distribute model legislation for introduction in state governments across the U.S. Founded in 1973, ALEC operates as a public-private partnership promoting principles of limited government, free markets, and federalism.
Structure and Influence: ALEC comprises nearly one-quarter of all state legislators (over 2,000 members) and approximately 300 corporate and foundation members.
Corporate members pay significant fees to join task forces where they vote alongside legislators to approve model bills on issues ranging from taxation and regulation to voter ID and environmental policy. Approximately 200 of these model bills become law each year, with ALEC boasting a high enactment rate compared to typical legislation.
Controversy and Criticism: Critics describe ALEC as a “corporate bill mill” where coporations exert outsized influence on state laws behind closed doors, often without public disclosure of corporate involvement in drafting legislation.
The organization faced significant corporate defections in 2012 following scrutiny over its role in promoting Stand-your-ground laws and voter ID requirements. ALEC maintains it is a nonpartisan forum for exchanging policy ideas, though the majority of its legislative members are Republicans.”
Welp – this doesn’t look good and reeks of Uniparty!
The American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) includes numerous private sector representatives from corporations, trade associations, and industry groups who serve on its Private Enterprise Advisory Council (PEAC) and task forces.
As of 2025–2026, notable members include:
Bill Carmichael (American Bail Coalition) – 2026 National ChairmanJoseph Arite (Guarantee Trust Life Insurance) – 2026 First Vice ChairmanSteve DelBianco (NetChoice) – 2025 Immediate Past ChairmanMike Morgan (Koch Companies Public Sector, LLC) (Americans For Prosperity)Stephen Moore (Committee to Unleash Prosperity)Ken McKay (PhRMA) (Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America)David Grow (State Farm Insurance Companies) (BIG DEI company and notorious for malpractice in Palisades fire – State Farm Vice President Haden Kirkpatrick was fired in March 2025 following the release of an undercover video that captured him discussing the company’s California wildfire rate hikes and policy cancellation strategies )Mike Kiely (United Parcel Service)Derek Crawford (Altria Client Services) – (Parent Company of Philip Morris)Cynthia Bergman (ExxonMobil)These representatives collaborate with state legislators to develop model legislation aligned with ALEC’s principles of limited government, free markets, and federalism.
While ALEC describes this as a public-private partnership, critics argue it grants corporate interests significant influence over state policy-making.

✟
“He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.”
Psalms 23:3 (KJV)
COMMENTARY FOR PSALMS 23
Confidence in God’s grace and care.
– “The Lord is my shepherd.” In these words, the believer is taught to express his satisfaction in the care of the great Pastor of the universe, the Redeemer and Preserver of men. With joy he reflects that he has a shepherd, and that shepherd is Jehovah. A flock of sheep, gentle and harmless, feeding in verdant pastures, under the care of a skilful, watchful, and tender shepherd, forms an emblem of believers brought back to the Shepherd of their souls. The greatest abundance is but a dry pasture to a wicked man, who relishes in it only what pleases the senses; but to a godly man, who by faith tastes the goodness of God in all his enjoyments, though he has but little of the world, it is a green pasture. The Lord gives quiet and contentment in the mind, whatever the lot is. Are we blessed with the green pastures of the ordinances, let us not think it enough to pass through them, but let us abide in them. The consolations of the Holy Spirit are the still waters by which the saints are led; the streams which flow from the Fountain of living waters. Those only are led by the still waters of comfort, who walk in the paths of righteousness. The way of duty is the truly pleasant way. The work of righteousness in peace. In these paths we cannot walk, unless. God lead us into them, and lead us on in them. Discontent and distrust proceed from unbelief; an unsteady walk is the consequence: let us then simply trust our Shepherd’s care, and hearken to his voice. The valley of the shadow of death may denote the most severe and terrible affliction, or dark dispensation of providence, that the psalmist ever could come under. Between the part of the flock on earth and that which is gone to heaven, death lies like a dark valley that must be passed in going from one to the other. But even in this there are words which lessen the terror. It is but the shadow of death: the shadow of a serpent will not sting, nor the shadow of a sword kill. It is a valley, deep indeed, and dark, and miry; but valleys are often fruitful, and so is death itself fruitful of comforts to God’s people. It is a walk through it: they shall not be lost in this valley, but get safe to the mountain on the other side. Death is a king of terrors, but not to the sheep of Christ. When they come to die, God will rebuke the enemy; he will guide them with his rod, and sustain them with his staff. There is enough in the gospel to comfort the saints when dying, and underneath them are the everlasting arms. The Lord’s people feast at his table, upon the provisions of his love. Satan and wicked men are not able to destroy their comforts, while they are anointed with the Holy Spirit, and drink of the cup of salvation which is ever full. Past experience teaches believers to trust that the goodness and mercy of God will follow them all the days of their lives, and it is their desire and determination, to seek their happiness in the service of God here, and they hope to enjoy his love for ever in heaven. While here, the Lord can make any situation pleasant, by the anointing of his Spirit and the joys of his salvation. But those that would be satisfied with the blessings of his house, must keep close to the duties of it.
Commentary by Matthew Henry, 1710.

Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered !!!
WE ARE FIGHTING A SPIRITUAL WAR OF GOOD VERSUS EVIL
PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD
Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.
I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.
Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.
With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.
Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me.
Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ, Amen.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ABUSED, MISSING, AND TRAFFICKED CHILDREN

Amen.

SHEPHERD OF MY HEART
The Shepherd keeps watch over His flock
He daily checks hearts – then, He takes stock
If one has been tempted and led astray
He pursues and prods lest one slip away
Carefully crafted by our God are we
Inside our hearts – He can clearly see
When we accept Jesus – as Lord of all
We answer to Jesus – the Shepherd’s call
Oh, Lord – let me never stray from the flock
May you always find me when you take stock
If some day – I should be tempted and stray
Come after me, Lord – let me not slip away
You know in my heart – Your Spirit resides
Be sure in my heart – Your Spirit abides
I lay at your feet – the trials of the day
Shepherd of my Heart – be not far away
Direct and perfect me in all I do
Let my labor be blessed – pleasing to You
Let all that I am and ever will be
Give Honor and Glory only to Thee
Whenever I’m stumbling along the way
Reach out to me – set me upright – I pray
Separated from You – I pray not to be
Shepherd of My Heart – stay close to me
Keeper of this heart of mine – be patient
For I am but human – sometimes I’m salient
Not paying attention – distracted am I
With worldly concerns – in the blink of an eye
Be the sunlight of my day – a ray of hope
Help me, Oh Lord – to steadfastly cope
Be the light of my night – a bright beacon
The Shepherd of My Heart – my church deacon
Wash and cleanse me – as I repent today
Purify me – in Your Word and Your Way
Let not my sin separate us for long
Shepherd of my Heart – to You, I belong
Strengthen me daily – that I may not stray
Keep me securely in Your arms today
I trust in You – above all – and I pray
Shepherd of My Heart – guide my heart today

Here’s a small bit from today celebrating America
Ashe in America: The closer we get to America’s birthday, the more the Spirit of America is undeniably rising.
First, consider that yesterday was a trifecta of answers in the historical record.
In 1775, the Army was born.
In 1777, the National flag was established.
In 1946, President Trump was born.
In 1954, “under God” was added to the pledge.
In 2026, on the President’s 80th birthday, a historic sporting event was held — making the youth pay attention to the White House and feel pride in America, for maybe the first time ever.
Feeling as we did after America won Olympic hockey, we were treated over the weekend to American victory in World Cup soccer. Motocross bros were doing flips on the lawn. Lefties wailed for a moment before getting bodied in their comments.
Hanging Around-Red Breasted Nuthatch by Rick Bainbridge

Psalm 5:2-7
☘️
Lord, listen to my groaning.
Hearken to my words, O Lord,
attend to my sighing.
Heed my call for help,
my king and my God!
Lord, listen to my groaning.
At dawn I bring my plea expectantly before you.
For you, O God, delight not in wickedness;
no evil man remains with you;
the arrogant may not stand in your sight.
Lord, listen to my groaning.
You hate all evildoers.
You destroy all who speak falsehood;
The bloodthirsty and the deceitful
the Lord abhors.
Lord, listen to my groaning.
The Colors of Nature by Rick Bainbridge

☘️
Ps 119:105
Alleluia, alleluia.
A lamp to my feet is your word,
a light to my path.
Alleluia, alleluia.
The Watchful Eye by Rick Bainbridge

☘️
Matthew 5:38-42
☘️
Jesus said to his disciples: “You have heard that it was said, An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. But I say to you, offer no resistance to one who is evil. When someone strikes you on your right cheek, turn the other one to him as well. If anyone wants to go to law with you over your tunic, hand him your cloak as well. Should anyone press you into service for one mile, go with him for two miles. Give to the one who asks of you, and do not turn your back on one who wants to borrow.”
The skydiving plane accident that happened yesterday in Butler, MO with all 12 on the plane killed was at the airport my grandpa used to manage. It would not even be an airport anymore if the city leaders had not asked him to step in and save it when it was failing.
I was there in the last several years and went up in the co-pilot seat of the King Air owned by the owner of the then skydive operation there and the then airport manager. That is not the plane being used yesterday and it was also not the same pilot or skydive operation owner.
I probably know quite a few of those who perished yesterday as 9 of them were experienced skydivers and the skydiving community is very tight.
Keep their families and extended skydiving community members in your prayers please, as well as the community, first responders and everyone on site and those providing comfort to all. Thank you.
Thanks for your insight, twolaine.
So sad, and I will have them in my prayers.

nady-aton humor?
my words get all tingle-tangled up
The phrase “when pigs fly” is an adynaton, a figure of speech describing an impossible event, often used to humorously express that something will never happen. It has been used since the 1600s as a sarcastic remark
actually, my tongue got in the way of my eye teetth and i couldn’t see what i was saying

I used to wonder who Sundance was to put context with what he is doing. It dawned on me you can judge him by his work product and his heart. Especially over the long period of time that the Treehouse has been in existence. It gives me peace of mind knowing we have a knight fighting for us. God Speed.

EVENING PRAYERS
Prayer Of Thanksgiving In The Evening
Praise Your holy name Heavenly Father, for granting yet another day in my life and for being with me every step of the way. Thank You for the many blessings that You have provided and the love and fellowship that I have with the friends and family that in Your grace You have placed in my life.
My heart is so thankful for all the many blessings that I enjoy day by day, and today I am once again reminded that Your mercies are new every morning and Your faithfulness endures from generation to generation.
Thank You, that I have been brought into Your family and have been made a child of God and a citizen of heaven. Words cannot express my love and devotion to You Lord
I pray that You would watch over me as I rest tonight, and that You would give me a restful night’s sleep so that I may wake up in the morning refreshed in body and spirit and ready to do Your will. Guard all those that I love and may we all grow in grace and in a knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ in the days that lie ahead. This I ask in His precious name,
Amen.

Prayer Of Reflection On The Past Day
Loving Lord, as the day is coming to an end, I want to thank You for being with me in all that has taken place today. I also want to lay the whole day before You, asking that you would show me if there is anything that I have done to hurt or harm another person unknowingly, or if I have done anything that is displeasing in Your sight, or quenched the work of the Spirit in me, so that I may turn away from such things in the days that lie ahead.
Lord, I desire to do Your will in all things. I pray that You would cleanse me of any wrong thoughts or attitudes that may have surfaced in my heart today. Wash me in Your cleansing flood, I pray.
Thank You, that You are a God who forgives our transgressions when we are willing to confess them to You, knowing that such cleansing before You immediately draws us back into sweet fellowship with Yourself.
Give me a good night’s rest I pray, and may I rest quietly in Your loving arms in the knowledge that in Christ, I am eternally secure, due to Your amazing grace, for which I praise You. In Jesus’ name,
Amen.

Evening Prayer For Forgiveness
Heavenly Father, thank You for bringing me through this day and Lord, forgive me for the times when I have wandered outside Your best will for me, instead of trusting You implicitly.
Thank You, that You are such a gracious Shepherd to me and that You come and rescue me even when I lose my way and stray from the path that You have laid out for me.
As I look back over today, I know Lord that there were things that I should have said and done differently, and times when I reacted in a manner that was not honouring Your holy name. Forgive me I pray, but thank You, Father, that You always faithfully prepared to gently bring me back to Yourself.
Give me a good night’s sleep I pray, knowing that there is no condemnation because I am in Christ, and may I wake up in the morning refreshed and ready to do Your will. In Jesus’ name I pray,
Amen.

The Memorare ☘️
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,
that never was it known
that anyone who fled to thy protection,
implored thy help,
or sought thy intercession,
was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence
I fly unto thee,
O Virgin of virgins, my Mother.
To thee do I come,
before thee I stand,
sinful and sorrowful.
O Mother of the Word Incarnate,
despise not my petitions,
but in thy mercy hear and answer me.
Amen.
The Regina Coeli

Queen of heaven, rejoice, alleluia.
The Son whom you merited to bear, alleluia,
has risen as he said, alleluia.
Rejoice and be glad, O Virgin Mary, alleluia!
For the Lord has truly risen, alleluia.
