My prayer book

I have this prayer book that I study each week and I LOVE the book so much I thought I'd share it with YOU (don't you feel special?!) It is titled "Becoming A Woman Of Worth Prayer Book" By Karen Moore.

So, each Sunday night I read a new prayer and make that part of my prayers for the week.
Here's the first one:

Walking in prayer:

If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Galatians 5:25

Heavenly Father,
When we were young, You helped us learn to walk. You protected our steps and applauded our efforts to grow so that we could not only walk, but run and leap as well.
As we've learned to walk closer to You, Lord, we've grown to trust that You are always beside us, always near to guide and support us on the way.
You are indeed a loving friend and our relationship with You can be as intimate and as real as we choose it to be.
Lord, help us to choose to walk with You in all that we do. Help us to seek Your advice and Your wisdom for our lives. Help us to admit when we've fallen down and need You to pick us up again. Help us keep steadily on the path, moving always in the direction You would have us go.
We're not as young now, Lord, but we still come to You in childlike faith, holding out our arms for Your kindness and Your embrace. Help us stay close to You always, learning to trust and obey with every step we take.
Let us walk the walk with You every moment we live.
In Your Spirit we pray. Amen.


Isn't that a beautiful prayer? How much stress and worry would we save ourselves if we could always keep that childlike faith and hold out our arms for His embrace!
