Everything from Prayables is shareable. No need to ask permission. Pass it along to clergy, friends, and family. Use it on social media, or print and copy. Thank you!

Overwhelmed by how much you have to do today? Spend an additional 10 minutes in prayer. May God bless you with enough time to do what you must, and more than enough time to do what you want to.

When it’s not God’s will you can’t force it. When it is – you can’t stop it. May you be blessed to recognize the signs of a willing God, always working on your behalf.

If you’ve got pain, God is a paintaker. If you are lost, God is a waymaker. If you are bound up and yearning to be free, God is a chainbreaker. May you be blessed to take, make and break the challenges you face.

You can’t go wrong when you check with God first. Pray away mistakes and bad choices. Make it your blessing to always include the Holy One in your decision making.

Some things are out of your control. But being out-of-control is an ungodly choice you make. May you be blessed with the spiritual empowerment to take back control of your emotions, reactions and actions. Live well, my friend.

Q-CARD

Have I misunderstood this gift of prayer? Why do I ask, why do I try to convince You of my needs? As if. Today I thank You. I praise You. I seek a deeper more pure connection. Today, dear God, I do not pray to You, I pray for You. Amen

God. You are the center of everything. You keep me dreaming, You ask me to keep trusting in an infinite plan that will surely bring peace. Amid my sadness, among this doubt, I proclaim my faith – You are enough, all this is enough.

Dear God, Bless my sleep. Grace me with peaceful slumber free from the tossing and turning, empty of the constant head chatter, clear of fear, despair, and sadness. Praise to You who brings blessed sleep. Amen

Glory Glory Hallelujah! Thank you for this gift of a glory-filled day. I receive it! Glory Glory Hallelujah!

To love and be loved, to hold and be held, to bring comfort and to be comforted, to protect and be protected – for this I pray.

Story: Jack Took the Train

Poem: Tourists by Yehuda Amichai
Once I sat on the steps by a gate at David’s Tower, I placed my two heavy baskets at my side. A group of tourists were standing around their guide and I became their target marker. “You see that man with the baskets? Just right of his head there’s an arch from the Roman period. Just right of his head.” “But he’s moving, he’s moving!” I said to myself: redemption will come only if their guide tells them, “You see that arch from the Roman period? It’s not important: but next to it, left and down a bit, there sits a man who’s bought fruit and vegetables for his family.”

Q-CARD

Philippians 2:3-4 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourself, not looking to your own interest but to the interest of others.

I put others first.

Isaiah 58:11 Where God guides, God provides.

I am rewarded when I follow God’s direction.

I will follow the path of the Lord, walking straight and narrow, reaching the end in the service of my Lord.

Philippians 2:12 Therefore my dear ones, as you have always obeyed my suggestions, so now, not only with the enthusiasm you would show in my Presence, but much more, because I am unseen, fully complete your own salvation with reverence and
awe. Use serious caution and tenderness of conscience. Stay away from what might offend me.

Even in the seemingly absence of God I honor Him properly.

James 5:12 Let your yes be yes and your no be no.

My word is my bond. I will say what I mean and mean what I say.

Q-CARD

Not all angels play the harp and sing, some are called to battle.

Money is momentary, a house is transient, your work will come and go, only God is eternal.

Avoid posting your personal problems on social media. Your personal problems require personal solutions, not social attention. There’s nothing more personal than prayer.

Life doesn’t have to be perfect for you to find the perfection in it.

Appreciation leads to abundance.

Warning: I cry for joy!
