For the one whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for God gives the Spirit without limit. The Father loves the Son and has placed everything in his hands. - (John 3:34-35)

John’s gospel declares it again and again. Jesus is God among us. He speaks the words of God. His actions are the actions of God. He follows the will of God. Jesus is God among us. On Jesus and in Jesus, the Spirit of God operates with absolute power and authority, yet in complete harmony — the dance of grace between Father, Son, and Spirit in Jesus.

If we want to know how God acts, how God feels, what God wants, or what God would say, we only need to look to Jesus. He is Immanuel, God with us (Matt. 1:23). He is God come to care for his people (Luke 7:16). He is the Holy One of God (Mark 1:24). He is God made flesh (John 1:11-14). He is the Son who fully reveals the Father because he operates fully by the power of the Spirit (John 1:18).

Prayer : Almighty God, LORD, Yahweh, the God of our fathers – Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob – I praise you and thank you. I praise you for your holiness that is beyond my comprehension and for your self-revelation in Jesus who is flesh and blood like I am. Thank you for the truth that I cannot fully understand, that as Father and Son and Spirit you operate as God, the Lord, who is One God. Just as you have given your Spirit without limit and the Son has shown me who you are, I pledge to you my love, heart and soul and mind and strength. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

Prayer before a Journey

Lord our God, before you there are no secrets;
nothing is hidden from your eyes
and nothing happens without your permission.

Grant me the happiness of beginning this trip
entrusted to you;
permit me to go and to return in peace and tranquility,
in your infinite love and mercy.

Accompany me with your loving security
and direct my footsteps
with the steady love of your heart,
keeping me always close to you, Lord.

May I see clearly the obstacles
of my journey,
and may I keep safe from affliction and despair,
thanks to your blessing and care.

Blessed are you, O Eternal God;
you have protected me in such a way
that by the light of your presence
I shall always find new roads
and fulfilling answers to my yearnings. Amen.

Prayer before starting on a Journey

My holy Angel Guardian, ask the Lord to bless the journey which I undertake, that it may profit the health of my soul and body; that I may reach its end, and that, returning safe and sound, I may find my family in good health. Do thou guard, guide and preserve us. Amen.

Prayer before going on a Journey

O Lord Jesus Christ our God, the true and living way, be thou. O Master, my companion, guide and guardian during my journey; deliver and protect me from all danger, misfortune and temptation; that being so defended by Thy divine power, I may have a peaceful and successful journey and arrive safely at my destination. For in Thee I put my trust and hope, and to Thee, together with thy Eternal Father, and the All-Holy Spirit, I ascribe all praise, honor and glory: now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.

Prayer For Patience

God, teach me to be patient, teach me to go slow,
Teach me how to wait on You when my way I do not know.

Teach me sweet forbearance when things do not go right
So I remain unruffled when others grow uptight.

Teach me how to quiet my racing, rising heart
So I might hear the answer You are trying to impart.

Teach me to let go, dear God, and pray undisturbed until
My heart is filled with inner peace and I learn to know your will.

Wait on the Lord

“Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” — Galatians 6:9

Our most gracious and attentive Lord, help us to remember that you move in your time, knowing as only you know the perfect time and the perfect way to answer our prayers. The flower begins at seed—a seed we neither see nor understand. And gradually the seed sprouts, still deep within the damp earth, hidden from our vision. We may be tempted to believe it is not growing, and yet if we dig it up to calm our doubts, we will damage it and stunt its full blossom.

Help us to be ever mindful, dear Father, that you have planted the seeds of peace for your children. Help us to continue to walk with you and know you more, growing ever stronger in our faith that what you have promised you will do, even when we do not yet have the physical evidence we seek.

How hard it is to wait after we’re prayed a particularly earnest prayer! How long is a minute to God? Sometime today, we can choose to sit quietly for 10 minutes and simply wait on the Lord. We can sit in stillness, available to God, not thinking, praying, or reading.

Just waiting on the Lord can be a wonderful, restful, and rejuvenating experience. We may even find that getting what we prayed for becomes less important than spending this quiet time with God.
