John 10:5

"Yet they will by no means follow a stranger, but will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of a stranger."
 
Bless You my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Most assuredly You have said You are the way, the truth and the life. May I continue to follow after You all my days. You Lord have made certain with guarantee for me and others to have a beautiful spiritual life and the promise of Your word to nourish us with. Over the years You have taught me a great many things for my benefit and growth as I become ever more depended on You for every good thing. This physical trial is no different. The world wishes to distract me, You are still the rock in which I cling. There are not many professions that require the laying down of ones life but just as all shepherds are willing to do for their sheep, You Lord gave up Yours for mine, this wee small lamb. This is a debt I could never repay, and the only gift I can give is to surrender all into Your loving care. At times my ears strain to hear Your voice but thanks be to You God, You have made known to me the sweet sound of it. So even when distraction abound all around me, lures of alternative healing and the inner groan of pain that is desperate for relief, my heart shall listen to Your instruction, heed Your warnings and follow Your steps. May Your glory shine through for all to see and be amazed. May the trumpet make a victorious sound for all to hear. Father, I pray for my sisters and brothers who are being stretched and challenged, may they be strengthened by the inner man to not go astray by listening to other voices, no matter how well meaning. Father Your love is so amazing, captivate the stagnate heart who has lost their way. Scoop up the wounded worrier who may be feeling defeated in battle, blessing them with Your rest. Oh Father make known Your truth to those who have not tasted and seen the goodness of Your ways. One bread and One body. May all honor be Yours the only wise King, who was and is and is to come. I love You Lord, bless You for Your mercy and grace that endue for ever. In the name of Jesus I pray and adore. Amen.

Matthew 17:8

When they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only.

Dear Jesus,
I only have eyes for You, dear. Many Lord say "Look here!" while others say "Look there!"  All the while causing much distraction to take our sight off You. Thank You Lord for opening my eyes to see Your incredible beauty. Your are marvelous and robe in white. What an amazing vision Lord, You must have been when You led Peter, James and John up the high mountain and transfigured before them. Your face shone like the sun and Your clothing became as white as light. MAGNIFICENT!! Yesterday, today and forever You are the great I Am, forever the same. Brilliant in every way including gentleness. You touch us and tell us not to be afraid. The just shall live by faith, and worship You in spirit and in truth. God our Father has spoken over You Jesus, "This is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased. Hear, Him!" O Lord that I should hear Your still small voice during prayer, lifting my eyes only to see You, my King. I pray Lord for Your Holy Spirit to have His way in me. Surrendering my will into Your loving hands to be used for Your glory. To touch others lives telling them to not be afraid, He lives! Jesus Christ the Lord lives! Hallelujah! May You Lord be born in the lives of others who are lost, walking in darkness. May they fix their eyes on the hills, for whence comes our help? Trusting and knowing our help comes from You Lord, maker of heaven and earth. You Lord will not allow our foot to be moved. Thank You Jesus for lighting up my life, so there is no darkness to be scared of. I love You. In Your sweet name Jesus I pray, Amen.
