Dear God,
thank you for helping to make my first days of this semester so good. I think i'm going to like my professors; they are such great men/women of your heart!! thank you for putting them into my life, and help me to form relationships with them all. praise me to your name, oh God, you have called me back. forgive me for straying from you this past week. I've been a bit of a mess, but I want to come back. You are high and mighty, great and glorious, Lord. Jesus, thank you for all you've done. may it never become "old news" to me!! Oh God, descend your Holy Spirit on me again. lead me today and show me what's right and what is wrong. to you be the glory in all the good things I do.
oh Jesus, thank you for Sarah. she's such a great friend to have, and she is so blessed because of you. oh Lord, praise be to you, you have given her a gift, and she's been given the chance to use it for you! thank you for helping her to make it onto Wellspring. help her to be calm and confident in her abilities and in YOU. help her to make friends with her co-workers early, help her nerves, and help her to grow into the leadership position with grace and humility. please bless that group of people; keep them all safe this summer, and help there to be good group dynamics between them -- and if any relationships form, please keep it from making the rest of them feel awkward. Thank you, also Lord, that she has such a great floor! and core, too. praise be to you, you have helped her get into a great group of girls who all love you and love Sarah. although, Lord, she wants to make some new guy friends. help the other guy-friendships she has to strengthen, and help her to make more if she really needs them. You know best, God, and it may be that she does have plenty of guy friends, she just hasn't taken the time to look around her and see them. give her contentment in the relationships she has, and help her circle of friends (though it doesn't have to be close friends) to gradually widen. Oh God, she had so much trouble with her roommate last semester, but look at this one that you've provided now!! thank you for giving her Ashley. she's soooo great, and truly a gift from you. be with Daylin at home, and help her to find a great group of friends there -- if she hasn't already. bless -- oh, bless! -- her, God. she has had quite an amount of trials in her life, yet she's such a sweet, kind girl. bless everything she does, Jesus. help sarah in her other relationships -- namely with Hannah. please help them to either reconcile or come to some sort of closure. you know what's best for them (I certainly don't!), and please help them to work everything out; whether it restores or officially ends the relationship. I, of course, pray for restoration, but Hannah... you still give us free will, and I don't know if she'll let that happen. But you are still God, and you can greatly influence the situation. help them to at least get to the friendly "hello" place. and God, be with Sarah this semester. help her to do great in her classes and learn a ton and make good relationships with her classmates and professors. help her to stay on top of her Bible reading, and keep her growing in her relationship with you. she doesn't know what's wrong with her shoulder, but please help everything to be okay and help the pain to go away, or help her to figure out what's wrong somehow. Oh Lord, help her confidence to grow! she's such a great girl, and please show her that there is no reason for her to be self-conscious. help her to realize that the way you made her is fantastic, and she should just be herself. give her patience with herself and others; diligence in her classes; and to embrace her personality. finally, God, thank you that Sarah got to come to SAU, and that Marisa was able to visit last weekend. Sarah has been such a blessing to me since I've been here, and she said that Marisa really seemed to figure some things out about you and herself while she was here. thank you, God, for your infinite blessings. you are soooooo great and awe-inspiring.
to you be the glory, praise, and honor forever and ever, Lord Jesus Christ. Amen!
