Yesterday was the official voting day for Canada’s federal election. I offer a prayer for wisdom and guidance for governmental leaders, that our countries may be led well over the next number of years.

A Prayer for Physical Stewardship
Today I’m changing it up a little bit by offering a prayer for making wise choices about our bodies. I admit I consistently make poor choices regarding my body, especially when it comes to eating healthy or exercising. Though the Bible says spiritual health is far more important than physical wellbeing, we’re still not supposed…
A Prayer for Boldness
Today I offer a prayer for boldness. Being an extreme introvert, I have needed to rely on God’s power in my life to help me be more willing to share my faith. I’m still an introvert as God created me to be, though God provides me the boldness to speak up / out in alignment…
A Prayer of Encouragement for Encouragement
Today I offer a prayer to encourage us to encourage others. The older I get the more I realize that we cannot walk through life without the support of those around us. We also should not allow others to walk through life without our support. I’m not sure about you, but a large portion of…
A Prayer for Joy and Laughter
Today I offer a prayer for joy and laughter. Though the tone of my prayers and writings may often seem quite somber, I do try to encourage us to enjoy life. God has gifted us with fun, humor and joy, so why not embrace them? Heavenly Father, our Purveyor of Joy, and our Source of…

A Prayer of Steadfastness and Peace in Times of Turmoil
Today I offer a prayer of steadfastness and peace in times of turmoil. Do you ever find yourself completely overwhelmed by circumstances, or hijacked by your emotions? I certainly do. How can we remain calm in the middle of such chaos? By inviting the grace and peace of God to rule in our hearts and…
A Prayer of Counting Blessings
Today I offer a prayer to celebrate the many ‘small’ blessings from God. These are easy to overlook, yet, if we’re faithful to thank Him for each one we purposefully see, we can experience more joy (and blessing) in our lives. “Father God, our Loving and Generous Lord who showers us with many blessings, we…
A Prayer for Security and Strength in God
Today I offer a prayer for Security and Strength in God. It’s often easy to become overwhelmed in our physical circumstances, so reorienting ourselves toward God our foundation is extremely important to keep us grounded. Heavenly Father, You are our light and our salvation, whom or what shall we fear? You are the stronghold of…
A Prayer for Those Who Are Overwhelmed
Today I offer a prayer for those who may be feeling overwhelmed in life’s circumstances, situations, trials and struggles. I’m not sure about you, but I certainly have seasons of feeling like treading water isn’t good enough to keep my head above the waves. Let’s bring this before the God of peace and joy. Father…
