1 Choronicles 16:8 (NIV)

"Give thanks to the LORD, call on his name; make known among the nations what he has done."

Lord, thank you for all you bless us with. It is really easy to sit back and take things for granted; let us take more time thanking you and giving ourselves back to you in whatever way we can. Thank you for my family, and everything you have done for us and our baby.

Ecclesiastes 6: 3 & 6 (The Message)

"3 Say a couple have scores of children and live a long, long life but never enjoy themselves--even though they end up with a big funeral! . . . .

6 Even if someone lived a thousand years--make it two thousand!-but didn't enjoy anything, what's the point? Doesn't everyone end up in the same place?"

God, please help me to take the time to enjoy my life where it is now, and not wish for things that are in the future. Let me enjoy Hollie and where we are in this stage of life. Help me not to want more money, or a bigger house, or more junk. Let me be content with my blessed life and great family, and not worry about things that don't matter.

Matthew 6:34

 "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."

Lord, please just help me to stop worrying about everything that is coming up and let you take control. You have taken care of us so far, please let me just realize that you will always keep doing that, even when I think things aren't going the way they should. Let us realize that we need to just sit back and enjoy what where we are in life, and let our stress and anxiety be handled by you.
