February 6 Prayer

February 6 Prayer
‘Our help is in the name of the Lord,
Maker of heaven and earth. ..
Our life, like a bird, has escaped
from the snare of the Fowler.”

Where do you feel trapped,
suspended or troubled?
Look to the heavens
See them open up for you
God is our ever present help
in times like these

He watches over us like
a mother cares for her children
He is a good shepherd that is our protector
Looking out for our good
When you need rest, he calls you
to come away, rest here a while,

There will always be people that need you
demands that will tug at you like snares,

Let Jesus, who has compassion
turn to meet their needs
Come and rest a while and
let him meet your needs today

Sit down
Move slowly
Take flight
Glide smoothly
Let your view change
to a long gaze
a love embrace
Where sky meets sea
Waves meet shore
Where your heart is warm
Secure in love
Sheltered and safe

‘Let Jesus, the good shepherd,
through his blood of the eternal covenant
provide you with all that is good
that you may do His will.
Let him teach you many things.
May He carry out in you what is pleasing to him,
All glory to him be forever and ever.’

Simply pray,
‘Lord Jesus, I will listen to your voice
and I will follow You and none other.
I willingly let go of the things that snare me up,
things that are out of my control
I trust in the way you will bring help
and give to us all what we need.’

Amen
