God Knows Our Prayers
Sample prayers:
"Dear God, please help me. I want to be liked by my friends, my fellow
students and also liked by my teachers. I want to make good grades and
make my parents happy or at least not to worry about me. I do not feel I
can do any of these things very well and it is early in the year. Please
God, help me to know how to better plan my goals and my study time. I do
not want to ask others for help but I know I may need assistance from
someone I trust. I don't want the school year to get too far ahead of me! I
ask for your guidance and I trust you. Please show me the answers I need
in order for me to do my very best..."
"Dear Heavenly Father, thank you so much for all you have given to me.
Thank you for our family and all we have. We enjoy our time together and
I know we are so blessed. Please help me to know how I can best support
my husband as he works hard to provide for us. He works so many hours.
Please show me the ways I can support him. Please also help me to be a
good mom to our children. I want to be helpful but not to hover so closely
that I become a 'helicopter mom'. I want them to feel that we trust them
to use all we have taught them to know the difference from right and
wrong. I want them to make smart decisions and to know they can always
come to us with anything. Please help me daily, Dear Lord. I ask these
things in Jesus' name. Amen."

September has snuck up on us! Here we are with a new football season
and cooler weather just around the corner...
Fall is my favorite time of year!! It is a very short season. What about
you? Do you enjoy this season change? I hope so. It seems the stores
begin putting out the Christmas items before we begin Autumn!
Hoping all things are going well for you!! Still praying for all of your
plans to succeed!
I began my new job in August and loving it so far! Of course, I miss the
wonderful smiles and precious students at MVPS! See picture below of
my beautiful flowers delivered to my job on my first day!! Made me cry
a little bit but made me feel loved and encouraged A LOT!!
