To live a well balanced, rewarding life of our dreams by day and sleep restfully at night.
A special time for you this evening: a simple prayer
Published January 11, 2012 | 
Tonight I invite you to take that bath, pour that glass of wine or brew that herbal tea…
Before bed, write a prayer in your journal. It can be very simple. Connecting to God (or whatever your faith may be) is very healthy for us. Getting out of ourselves a bit, focusing on a higher power can provide us with: perspective, the feeling of awe and love, gratitude, support, insight, and most of all: PEACE
My prayer for tonight:
Dear God,
Thank you for this day and now for the fact that this day has come to an end. I so welcome the evening and a little rest.
God, I hope that the good I did outweighed anything else. I appreciate the opportunities I was given to be a loving patient wife, teacher, and mother.
I appreciate all the smiles I received from colleagues and strangers.
I appreciate the beautiful Florida day I enjoyed as I took my young students outdoors today for recess.
I am thankful for the chance to inspire and nurture others. I love to be creative and I can do that during my work day and
writing here for The Warm Milk Journal.
Please help me to have perspective and continue to do good work.
Help me also to stretch and think out of the box regularly.
Amen,
Debra

Leave a commentA Prayer For This Morning
Published June 22, 2010 | Blessed is the Eternal our God, who has awakened me to the new day and called me to be free. Blessed is the One who opens the eyes of the blind, who provides clothes for the naked, who brings freedom to the captive, and whose power lifts up the fallen.
Blessed is the Eternal our God, Ruler of the Universe, who removes sleep from my eyes, slumber from the eyelids. Help me, Lord, to be awake this day to the wonders that surround me, alive to beauty and love, aware that all being is precious, that we walk on holy ground, wherever we go.
Amen
