Prayers

For an old mentor…

My old youth pastor from 30 years ago. I have no idea why he stormed into my thoughts tonight when I prayed to You. His name was Todd. Among other times and places… At the beach youth group retreat, we tried to dunk him, and somehow he kept his hair dry in the ocean, declaring “No one can take The Big Kahuna!”

I’m worried about him tonight. No idea why. Couldn’t care less. Please be with him and his family.

Please be with dad, as he prepares for back surgery tomorrow. With mom, as she puts her sanity on the line taking care of him…😂

…and please be with Crow. Fill her with your warmth and Your presence. Your comfort. Help her find Your Mighty Fortress and seek Your protection from the ravages of this world, our mistakes, and find resolve in choosing You to fill her heart with life, love, and joy.

And for whatever reason Todd hit my thoughts today night, please be with him and his family.

Thank You for all your blessings.

Amen.
