I'm sorry if it reads a bit like a grocery list.(;D)lol!

I am asking for God's blessing on all of my friends who have had newborns/young infants added to their families recently. Each new life is a blessing in itself, but new parents need wisdom, patience, and God's guidance throughout their new life together.

I ask for God to bless my unemployed friends with jobs. May they never forget their dreams, nor sacrifice all of those dreams, as they come to terms with finding stable employment--it's enough to lift your chin when your job blesses you with enough prosperity to tend to what MUST be done every day! (;D)

I ask God to please continue to watch over and protect all of my friends who are serving overseas; and God bless their family members/spouses who may be serving in another city or country at the same time.

Please, God, help me to make some changes in my life.
Please bless and guide me on my path, be a beacon for me in the darkness. And I thank You for Your tireless love, patience, and devotion--I'm aware of how "thick" (and stubborn) I can be at times, but I don't know what to do next. I need a little direction, Lord.
