More Than Amazing

Lord, I know she needs You. Her grief and her pain are more than she can bear. She really does believe in You, and yet, when she’s hurting it’s hard for her to know You’re there. She never wanted life to be this way; her anger is burning all of her love away. She needs your healing and a touch of Your grace today.

Lord, I know he needs You. His guilt and his shame are tearing him apart. He doesn’t really believe in You. That’s where he should start by asking You into his heart. He turns to every other type of a high. His main goals in life are to merely get by. It would give him peace to have You in his life today.

Lord, I know I need You. I’m too busy to praise You. My time seems to just slip away. I really do believe in You, yet my priorities continually fall out of place. I dread obligations and chores I have to do. My days blur together and I lose sight of You. So I pray for strength, for my joy to be renewed today.

Because Your grace is more than amazing, and Your joy is here for partaking, and Your peace will chase all her sorrows away. Because Your grace is more than sufficient, and Your joy is here and he can be in it, and Your peace is going to show me the way. Lord, please give me Your grace, fill her with joy, provide him with peace, and show us Your love today.

  1. Christie,
    This made me cry. I can feel your pain. I wish I knew how to help you. It's funny that you actually help me with your words, and I can come up with none for you other than I wish you peace.

  2. Only Jesus has the power to heal. He can rescue from any ordeal. I'm glad the words you read here help you. That is my ultimate prayer. I love the way my songs and poems give me a fresh perspective and a release for my pain. I'd like to think they have the potential for making the world a better place exponentially and vibrate a positive energy to others in need. Thank you for the blessing of your presence. I pray that the Lord fills your life with peace, beauty and joy.
