I pray for honesty, grace to forgive and be forgiven, conviction to repent as applicable, and restoration of fellowship with forgiveness and sufficient fruit of the Holy Spirit gentleness, goodness, peace and humility for each and every one of YOUR adopted sons and daughters who reads or listens to this prayer. LORD, I thank you for guiding each of us day-by-day and hour-by-hour and enabling us to focus on your priority for each of us. YOU admonish us that love abides love in us and we demonstrate our love for YOU by loving those you place us amidst. ‘Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. … So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love. [ 1 Corinthians 13:4-7; 13 ESV]

I pray that YOU fulfill the hope of the generations of people in Afghanistan who support freedom for all including education of boys and girls in schools. Let these individuals trust in YOU and I pray that many are YOUR adopted sons and daughters. I pray that none of these individuals will die or be killed outside of personal relationship with YOU. ‘For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you, declares the Lord, and I will restore your fortunes and gather you from all the nations and all the places where I have driven you, declares the Lord, and I will bring you back to the place from which I sent you into exile.’ [Jeremiah 29:11-14 ESV]

For figs are not gathered from thornbushes, nor are grapes picked from a bramble bush. The good person out of the good treasure of his heart produces good, and the evil person out of his evil treasure produces evil, for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.’ [Luke 6:43-45]
The LORD admonishes each of us to be compassionate, bless and not curse
a. Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them. Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep. Live in harmony with one another. Do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly. Never be wise in your own sight. Repay no one evil for evil, but give thought to do what is honorable in the sight of all. If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.’ [Romans 12:14-18 ESV]
I pray that you and your family members sleep well Wednesday night and will awake refreshed and healthy on Thursday morning.

Getting things done, accomplishing one's tasks means we need to put intention and action into play. If you haven't made the decision to get it done, planned for it and started on the path, you won't get there. Sometimes the hardest part is that first step but if it is important to you, you will find a way to accomplish it. I felt that way about getting my MH license after my school counseling one but in spite of a number of unforeseen obstacles, I did in fact, accomplish that goal. If you are determined to accomplish something, you are hard to stop.

“Yes, it’s ‘Wednesday and Hump Day’ everyone. Middle of the week, start of a new month, and time get whatever you’re doing or working on accomplished. Why Not?
The key to really accomplishing anything in life is your determination and that leads me to this quote…
‘In order to achieve accomplishment, one must first accomplish determination.’ — Unknown Author
May you have the goals, determination, and perseverance to accomplish your objectives whatever they may be today or in the future; may your mind, body, and soul be opened to grace, goodness, peace, forgiveness, and a continued bountiful life of purpose; and keep your family safe, secure, happy, and healthy.” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
