Members phkrause Posted July 23, 2014 Author Members Share Posted July 23, 2014 Prayer for a Baby Who Died Vienna Cobb Anderson She was so small, so beautiful, so full of hope and promise. What a blessing she has been to all of us who knew her those few short months. She taught us to love, to hope beyond expectation, to trust in that which is unseen. She drew us together in our anxiety, our moments of despairing and hopelessness, as well as in our joys and delight, and in her every breath. Her life ended prematurely; just so had she been born. Too soon she died. We wept. The tears continue. We hugged and held one another. The pain will always linger. Our hearts emptier for her absence and the unfulfilled dreams she promised. But the love she brought into our lives will live forever. Thank you for giving her to us. Thank you for the blessing that she will always be. Thank you for the love we would never have known, but for her and her brief days with us. Thank you for _____, our blessed child of grace. Amen.

Members phkrause Posted July 25, 2014 Author Members Share Posted July 25, 2014 The Blessing of Unanswered Prayers Unknown Confederate soldier I asked for strength that I might achieve; I was made weak that I might learn humbly to obey. I asked for health that I might do greater things; I was given infirmity that I might do better things. I asked for riches that I might be happy; I was given poverty that I might be wise. I asked for power that I might have the praise of men; I was given weakness that I might feel the need of God. I asked for all things that I might enjoy life; I was given life that I might enjoy all things. I got nothing that I had asked for, but eveything that I had hoped for. Almost despite myself my unspoken prayers were answered; I am, among all men, most richly blessed.

Help them meditate on Your Word. Use it to transform and renew their minds, to show them the old they need to put off in their lives and the new truths and ways of life to put on. Help them to see and respect the Bible for the living and active Word i is, able to penetrate hearts and judge a person's thoughts and attitudes. (Psalm 119:78b; Romans 12:2; Ephesians 4:22-24; Hebrews 4:12) May they find the discipline to learn Your Word and live by it— and may it keep their lives pure. Help them to live according to Your principles, holding Your Word in their hearts so they won't give in to temptation and sin against You. May they remember and apply Scriptures to their lives, for Your Word will set them free to say no to every temptation. (Psalm 119:9, 11, 112; John 8:32) Help them to know and learn to use the Scriptures as effectively as Jesus did—to defeat Satan by quoting Scripture when he tries to tempt them. Help them be ready, learning verses that will bring victory over the temptations they face and lifting them in prayer like a sword! (Job 22:22; Proverbs 3:1; Matthew 4:1–11; Psalm 119:16; Ephesians 6:17–18) Teach them to depend on Your Word. In Jesus' name, amen.
