steady.

my Lord! i cry out to you on behalf of my sister and cherished one, caitlin...
her experiences even in breathing are changing her as i sit here....
pinch her with a holy sign that you will be her encouragement.
that you will be her fire.
that you will cancel her fear.
that you will lift her to blessing.
that you will cause others to see yourself shining through her.
you have walked beside her, you have spoken to her face, you have enriched her life indeed!
Now, Lord, as you have promised, be her Great Shepherd and undo her impatience and anxiety. Undo any place in her that causes her to lose self control when she sits down to eat a meal.

allow your light to penetrate her darkness
and give her hope
hope and the fruit.
let her see how her presence is causing others to notice beauty of an ancient kind. the beauty of Grace. May your grace just shift her from her nook of fear.
and then catch her up in your warmth.
be in her team!
be in her sleep!
be in her food!
be in her music!
be in her prayers!
and hear mine, Lord Christ.

AMEN

You are faithful, God. Bless the actions of my dear friend Steph. please bring many people joy because of this wonderful, ridiculously wonderful human being.

give her the authenticity she so craves.
free her from fear.
laugh her into joy!
give her passions and desires for the future.
Encourage her as she no doubt influences lives as an R.C.

you love steph, so i pray your peace over here, strength on her and for your ruthlessness against everything that steals her joy.

in your name,
Amen (so be it).


p.s.
i need patience.
i need some freedom from anxiety
and i need some self control with eating.
