Help for Haiti | Prayer Blog

Father,
You know better than I do what’s going on in Byx’s head & heart.

You know what he’s thinking about, dealing with, & trying to discern Your direction on.

Thank You for just being inside his head, showing him the way.

Help him to follow You, & let You make the way for him, rather than him making it happen.

Thank you for his life, & for his willingness to do whatever, whoever, wherever, whenever, with however.

In the strong name of Jesus I pray,

Father,
Thank You for this man you’re molding into a likeness of You.

Thank You for the way You’re stripping away the unnecessary, & placing Yourself there instead.

Thank You for the way You are sticking out of him in unlikely ways & unlike places, with unlikely people.

Thank You for the way You’re helping him to not become jaded, cynical, or just worn out with all the need, desperation, & overwhelming devastation of all that surrounds him.

Thank You for the way You’re showing him to de-emphasize himself, & emphasize You – thank for how he’s realizing how to stop making his time in Haiti happen, & seeing that all he has to be is available to You – You’re the one that’s gonna make things happen.

Thank You for his safety – not just physical, but emotional, spiritual, psychological, attitudinal – thank You for guarding his heart, from himself & from the devil.

And thank you for this wild, crazy, BIG adventure that you dreamed for him a gajillion years ago.

Thank You for sustaining him as he continues to say little yes’s to You.

And Father, thank You for this crazy man who I love so dearly, who colors my life so wonderfully, & who reminds me each day that the life You dreamed for us SO long ago is SO crazy wonderful!

In Jesus name I thank You for all these things, & more – I thank You for You…
