Dear Lord

We were asked last night to bring before your holy throne the family of Glen and Peggy Hemmingway. Everyday we are going to asked a specail blessing on them. On the ones that impact their lives. For little Lexi and the hardships of being a child in a difficult set of circumstances. Lord only you can touch the hearts of men to make them understand the life we have on this earth and what is to be done with it. Only in you can we know the right paths to take so guide this family and all of us who know you and know we need you. It's not enough to just lay down our prayers we have to listen to them ourselves and we have to do our own part to make your plans work in our lives. Make that ever plain to those who can't see it. Father we know that this is not your will for there to be mistreatment and foul talk so lay it on the hearts of those who are not doing as they should so they will come around and make life better for the children and the families of those who are hurting and ill. As Peggy needs a extra portion of Your love to get her through this we are begging your mercy for her situation. Keep her safe and guide her mind and those thoughts that can distroy us. Be with all of us who hurt due to the actions of family member. Father you know that I had another close brush with the problems of drugs, anger, fear I really don't understand why this keeps coming up as I have firmly set my limits in your instructions and I can not waver from them so Lord please forgive my sin in this matter and protect those who just can't seem to ge their lives together. Robbie and Debra are a test everyday but I live in You Father and I am totally trusting in You. I don't always say the right things but Father I know that sometimes you have to make hard calls to get your point accross. It's come down to that so Father whatever comes I accept it as your will.

Be with Roland as his path is hard and his work load is heavy. Just let us pass through the storms and trust in you for a better day to come. For it is in the name of Jesus we pray it all into your loving hands.............Amen
