Dear Lord,
I pray that you bring everyone home safely this week for Thanksgiving with their family and friends. I pray that it would be a blessed time and also a time where we can really count our blessings and be thankful for all the Lord has bestowed upon us. Amen.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE. Be Thankful.

Heavenly Father…I thank you for you love and peace that transcends all understanding. I thank you that is it by love and grace that we are saved. I thank you for you contious joy that fills my heart each day I awaken. Thank you for being my strong hold and my tower of refuage and strength. I thank you for saving me before I fall. I thank you that you are the one who comes running to us when we can’t make it and who takes me by my hand and say, I AM HERE…lets finish this together. Thank you for you Lord for sending you Holy Spirit to be with us everytime we call upon you name. I thank you for the priveledge to go to school here at UCD. FoRgIvE me for taking that for granted. Thank you for my parents and all their hard work to send my sister and I to college. I pray a blessing upon their lives and I pray we can glorify YOU through our studies. Lord I confess that I have been burdened by my mother and father who work and slave around the clock so that I have the luxury of going to college. I pray that my parents would be able to focus their hearts and minds on you despite their business. I pray for health, strength and rest for the both of them as I love them dearly. Lord, it has been a tough year so far and I pray YOUR WILL BE DONE in our lives and I pray for whatever we struggle with that we would count it pure joy and know in everything there is purpose. Purpose that is forumalated to you own perfect plan in your perfect time. One Last thing Lord, I pray for PATIENCE, that I would not be anxious for anything but to keep my eyes on you. Be still and KNOW that I am GOD, He says. Patiences, in everthing help me not to worry but to pray about it. I pray for Clarity, deserment, and continual strength. In Your Most Holy Name, AMEN.

Cracks, scratches, chips and broken pieces are a picture of our lives. As we have studied in small groups. We are like jars of clay. Jesus is the Trtuth, the Life and the Way. When we walk in relatioship with Jesus Christ and as we draw near to Jesus (The Light), the Light starts to reveal the cracks, the scratches, the chips and perhaps areas that are completely broken. Our lives are broken vessels and Jesus is the ONLY ONE who can repair or rebuild our lives. As we walk towards the Light, we turn our eyes and we want to find a hiding place to hide because we are ashamed of the SIN, the areas of our lives that are broken, the cracks that people could never see before until you stepped into the Light. We are in the POTTER’s hands, Jesus says…come, do not be afraid I do not condemn you, I love you as you are and remember your sin no more. Everyday, the Father takes our lives as we give it to Him and He constanly repairs our lives and our hearts. He takes us and repieces the broken pieces…sometimes breaking us completely and rebuildin us to the way He desires us to be. Walk………
