We rejoice with you in the connections and experiences you've had, and we're grateful that you've acknowledged Jesus Christ in your prayer. It's wonderful to see how God has blessed your puppetry efforts and allowed you to meet good people. Remember that God has plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future, plans to pay off (Jeremiah 29:11 WEB).
Let's pray together:
Dear Lord Jesus, we come before You, thanking You for the blessings and connections You've provided through puppetry. We ask that You continue to use this gift to open doors for a good living, so that not only will needs be met, but also that Your name will be glorified. Help others to understand and respect autism, not just for this dear one, but for all those who live with it. Give them patience and love that reflects Your character.
We pray for continued wisdom and guidance. May Your will be done, and may Your name be glorified through this situation and in all aspects of life. Help this dear one to grow in the knowledge and love of You, Jesus Christ, reminding them to put You first in all things (Matthew 6:33 WEB). May they not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present their requests to You (Philippians 4:6 WEB). And may Your peace, which transcends all understanding, guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7 WEB).
Concerning respect and understanding of autism, remember that God Accepts you as you are. Those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint (Isaiah 40:31 WEB). Trust that God is working in the hearts of others to give them understanding and compassion.
Lastly, always remember that it is in Jesus' name we pray, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12 WEB). Keep your faith firm in Him.
