To know Him is to love Him. Do you see Him smile?A friend of mine told me that he does not like scripted prayers. I can relate to that.Actually, I pray scripted prayers; but it is my script, not someone else’s script.I would prefer that you do not see these prayers as scripted prayers. There is no particular power in these specific prayers. I do not claim that the Holy Spirit will move through you if you say these prayers the way that they are written.There are over 1500 statements, requests, and questions here. Yes, they are organized and structured into prayers. Hopefully they are written and organized in a way that you will find to be impacting.My intent though is to present these statements, requests, and questions as possible options for you to include in your prayers. Please, pick and choose any of the 1500 statements, requests and questions.

3

I make no claim to completeness. There are certainly other things that you can and should include in your prayers.I make no claim for the way I put my sentences together. There are certainly other ways that these statements, requests and questions can be worded.A few of these prayers are specific to my life circumstances; please, modify them to be appropriate to your own life circumstances.Names have been changed to protect people.If you are reading these prayers and you see your name, I apologize. I am not writing to or about you.

102

Praise

Father:

I praise You.In this universe, that You created and sustain, both the inorganic substrate and the organic skin decay.In Your sovereignty, all things decay to become more random; less ordered, less connected, and less structured.In Your sovereignty, the universe expands, living things die, mountains erode, and steel rusts.Are death and decay necessary to show us that all material things are temporary, that they will all come to an end?


103

Praise

Father:

I praise You.All things decay to become more random.The nature of the universe, that You created and sustain, is that randomness is always increasing.Every minute, every hour, and every day; order, connectedness, and structure are continually decreasing.For both the inorganic substrate and the organic skin, for the big picture, the background of the big picture, as You created and sustain it, is a background of decay.


104

Praise

Father:

105

Praise

Father:

I praise You.You are the healer.You heal injuries and illnesses.When You heal living things, order, connectedness, and structure increase; also the opposite of the background of decay.I know that You exist; because I can see living things healing (order, connectedness, and structure increasing) against the background of decay where randomness increases.Did You create the universe with a background of decay so that Your acts of conceiving, growing, and healing would stand out clearly against that background of decay?


106

Praise

I am amazed. I am in awe.


111

Praise

Father:

I praise You.You are infallible.You never make a mistake.When You allow me to do what I choose to do, You are not making a mistake.When You prevent me from doing what I would choose to do, You are not making a mistake.When You allow me to do what I choose to do, it is not because You are unable to prevent me.


112

Praise

Father:

I praise You.When You allow me to sin, it is not because You are unable to prevent me.When You do not restrain me from sin, is it to help me to see my heart through my actions?Do You help me to see my heart through my actions to provide me an opportunity grow spiritually, emotionally, or in character?
