Father, what a blessing You gave us in the gift and privilege of prayer. Not only can we come before You at any time, in any place to speak with You about our joys and sorrows, our celebrations and disappointments, but we can intercede on behalf of others. Thank You for the personal attention You give each of us, for knowing our needs even before we do. Even though we know You are always with us, I praise You for those "God" moments we each have, when we tangibly feel Your presence, which reassures us in faith, hope and strength. Thank You for all You have done for Kirk, and for the blessings and provision yet to come. He is Your child and You care for him beyond measure. Hallelujah! In Jesus' name, thank You. Amen.
