Dear Lord

Prayer Transcribed from Ecclesiastes 3


Dear Lord,

Your timing is perfect. Thank-you for your perfect timing. Lord you say to us in your word, to everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under the sun. A time to be born, and a time to die--both of which lord I recognize as everyday occurrences. Lord every so-often, I feel myself reborn usually after something in me had to die. Everytime Lord I let go of practices, ways of thinking--pieces of me that needed to die, you rebirth me into someone wiser and new, for that I say Thank-you. Lord you let us know in your word that there is a time to plant and just as we have been planted, there is a time to pluck that which has been planted. That which is planted must grow and it is so important lord how you remind us that there is a time to plant the seeds of faith and wait until the harvest is ready to be plucked to reap the benefits of what we  have planted. Lord help us to be patient in the pursuit, to turn our eyes away from the seeds we have planted and just let you, God, do the work necessary to ensure once the harvest is harvested, it can withstand any storm.

Lord you also tell us there is a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up. Lord, we understand this to be true from your word but be nice to us when we feel broken, for in the end Lord you always make Beauty from ashes.

Lord your timing is not our timing but it is perfect, it has no rhyme or reason but trusting you Lord is to say even without a cause or seeing the bigger,  that I will still trust that whatever is happening is exactly the experience I should be having. Thank-you Lord for loving and protecting me, your grace is sufficient and I say thank-you. Lord, enter where you already abide and fill us with love, light and Happiness.

In Jesus Name,

Amen
