Day 2: Your neighbors

Mark 12:31

31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[a] There is no commandment greater than these.”

In one way this is easy. My neighbor, Diane is an absolute gift. I am not sure what I would have done without her this past year nor she me. 
My other neighbors, however, require much more effort. The perv next door, the new neighbors on the other side of Diane and especially crazy at the end...I just have to love them from a distance.
Lord, help me to feel in my heart the way you do about them. But also help me to guard my heart (as well as my sanity) in dealing with them. Help me to hold my tongue and not speak ill of them unjustly just because I don't like them. 
And I thank you so much for Diane and pray that you will always bless her. Provide for her needs, emotional and otherwise. Make her healthy that she may enjoy her family and her golden years. Help me to be the blessing to her that she has been to me.
In Jesus' name,

Amen

Prayer for my daughters

Oh heavenly Father, I lift up my daughters to you.  I love them so much.  Please take care of them Lord.  Cover them with your blessings and protection.  Let me let go of my desire to confirm them to my will.  show me how to protect them and guide them into wisdom. Let them know they are loved as they are.  Let me love them also as they are.  Let them know they are indeed princesses in a kingdom far greater than any fairy tale, a kingdom with a great king who reigns with justice and mercy.  Make them strong in your Word. Let them be tender and gentle and let your love flow through their lives and hearts.  In Jesus' Holy name,  Amen
