Take Up My Cross Journal

Dear God November 29, 2024

Dear God:

We had a good Thanksgiving Day yesterday. I pray everyone did. I am thankful for the good food we had and I am thankful for all the good things in my life.

I had a dream about Dad. I like to think that means he is with us. He looked like he did when he had come home from Vietnam. I am thankful he survived three trips to Vietnam. Some daughters fathers died in Vietnam when they were young. I am lucky I had Dad for 87 years. It wasn't easy, Lord with Dad and I but the last twenty-five years, we were in a good place. I am thankful for that.

I send out prayers for my family, friends, the animals, the wars in the Middle East and the Ukraine. I pray for all the eight billion people of the world. I pray for the new President Elect. I pray you guide Trump to do good things for us.

I pray for Mom and her safe trip from Oregon next week.

I pray for my medical needs, the world, my kitty Bella and I pray for everyone's pets. Thank you for letting my son's cat get better.

Thanks for listening, Lord. In Jesus's precious name, I pray. Amen
