Today’s Prayer (10/19/2021)

Oh Lord, I pray that You will help me to not allow anger and jealousy be a part of my life. I know how evil it is to allow anger and jealousy to burn within us when it comes to another person. I have seen many relationships end in divorce and family ties being broken to pieces because of anger and unforgiveness. There are people who still have a hard time being around me because of who I once was, even though I am now different. You have made me a new creation, but still, many people cannot forget the past, while still hanging it over my head wrongfully. This is very sad. I have even done this myself, which I am very sorry for. Lord, I pray that any relationship that is broken now will be mended and made whole again if that is Your will. Otherwise, help me know when to distance myself from people if they are the wrong influence upon me. In all things, I pray that I will be guided and directed by the Holy Spirit and not my own flesh. My own desires get me in trouble and cause me to be sorrowful, but when I do Your will there is only peace and no judgments upon me. Thank You for taking the weight of sin off my shoulders. Only You can do this. I trust in You, Jesus. You are my God and I worship You. I love You. Amen.

Genesis 4:6,7

Genesis 4:6,7 (KJV)
6 And the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen?
7 If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.
