A Prayer

Lord, Bless the readers and followers of this work.  I ask that you keep watch over them through this season of Your birth and safely into the New Year.  I pray that they are mindful of the reason for the season and will keep You in their minds and hearts as well.

Bless our Soldiers serving everywhere to protect and preserve this nation.  Keep them in the hearts of their country and of their loved ones.  I pray that many of them will be home with their families this Christmas.  Bless those that have made the ultimate sacrifice, Lord, and I pray that You have provided a special place in Your Kingdom for them to rest, and to meet long lost family and friends.

Bless my family, Lord!  Keep them safe and in continued happiness throughout the coming years.  Many of my grandchildren have reached adulthood now and I ask that You guide and direct them on a continuing path of love for You and success in their pursuits.

Lord, I pray also that My Friend Freddy has reached your side and is amusing you with his uncanny intelligence and and love.  Keep him safe until I once again join with him in Your Heavenly Home.

In Jesus name, Amen!

Merry Christmas to All!
