Prayers for ****.  He has been diagnosed with ALS.  He is a poet and he is a twin…both are poets and both are blind.

Tell **** to do her best for her son that she can.  She will not be perfect but she should strive for it.  She is just the last person to go through it…

For my friend **** – Health Problems.

For help for me taking steps for work.

For help for me getting my book of poems together.

For help w/ my personal life.

Dear God ~ Please give me patience & grace.  I’ve been very wrapped up in my own “stuff.”  Amen – ****

I pray for my grandparents – my grandmother was just diagnosed with alztheimers.  Prayers for her and especially for my grandfather ~ as he cares for her.  May he also care for himself & let us in, to stand with him and support him.

After hearing **** story & dream/vision for BSM, I want to extend my prayers for her, her family, and for the BSM community;  that BSM continue to show us and Philly another way of being and loving in the world.

I met a homeless man named **** recently and I would just pray that God continues to tug on his heart and use me to speak into his life.

God,Help me be who you & your people need me to be.  Fight my apathy.  Remind me of your call on my life, & your presence wherever I am.  Disarm my defensiveness.  God I’m going to try & trust you.  I’m not good at that.  Give me strength.
