Prayer for a Debutante

Lord, a young woman has grown in front of our
eyes. May she ever lean toward the Truth and
the Light. May she walk along the way You
have set for her. May angels watch her each hour
of each day in her life. May You take her hand
so that she fulfills her potential. Make her smile
wherever she is, in whatever she would do.
Inspire her in every little while.

Amen.

Prayer Before a Journey

Lord, life consists of journeys and is itself one.
In the trip I am about to take, let me fly on
angels' wings. With Your blanket of love, keep
me safe. Wherever I go, may Your blessings
flow, within and around me. May the deep
joy of heaven ever teach my soul to sing:
Thank You for the opportunity to travel,
to see Your bounty everywhere, and marvel.
Guide me in every baby step and every leap.

Amen.

Prayer for the Home (Acts 16:11-15)

Lord, You and Your people are welcome in my home.
Please bless this place, so that love will overflow here.
May no evil enter; may angels guard every door and
window. Thank You for this shelter and all who dwell
within it. Please bless us all who come and go;
may we have faith, hope, and no fear.
Holy Spirit, remind us of God's call and commands.
Help us to live here righteously, safely, peacefully and well.

Amen.

Morning Prayer

Lord, thank You for my sleep and for the angel who
Watched over me the night before.
Thank You for the blessings I can now identify
And for those that are yet to come today.

Lord, bless this day so new
And bless me up to my needy core
So that as time marches by,
In my hands it would not waste away.

Help me in my service to You
While I desire You more;
Help me to always try
To serve others in what I do and say.

Lord, may Your angel guide and guard me through
This day. Open my soul's door,
And my life's purpose, please sanctify.
Little by little, lead me down Your golden way.

Amen.
