Transitions

Father in heaven you are amazing!!!
I love you more than words can explain. Father I pray that through this extremely difficult transition losing as an intern you'll really help us excel. God I know he's down and feels like he might have lost his dream or whatever but I pray that you'll help him see that this is what he needs to grow even stronger. Help him to understand all the details I'm sure he already does but give him strength and courage and boldness to not worry about what other people say or do behind his back or anything like that but instead please help him to push forward and not let anything stop him from growing. Lord I pray that you'll help Sam grow in humility. I know he has a very hard time submitting to your will and seeking advice and following through with that advice and I know that it's a huge challenge for him to seek you first all the time when he can turn to other things to try and fill the void. BUt PLEASE lord help him to see and understand that a relationship with you needs to be all the time and help; him to really overcome the hardness of heart, the untrustworthy attitude, the lack of love, or whatever it is when he gets in his moody times of pride. Help him to better understand your will, your love, your plan for his life and for him to really live it out to the best of his ability.
Father please be with Reachard as he too is going through a radical transition in life. I'm so proud of him getting the awesome job at Mater Dei and I know that he's going to excel there and really just do an amazing job as a varsity coach. Father please help him to not lose focus and not spread himself too thin as he takes on all the challenges of life. Father I pray that you'll instead fill him with an abundance of discipline, help him to wake up and get his feet on the ground when he knows he needs to, help him to stay on task and not drift away, not waste time watching TV or playing video games but instead I pray that he can act out his discipline every day in a radical way. You've given him some awesome talents, these great abilities to connect with people and love people on a deep deep level and I pray that you'll continuje to mold those talents and hone them so that he can bring you glory!
Father please please please be with Jack. I love him so much and I know he's going through and extremely difficult time right now with the death of his Grandma and never being able to see her again. I know this would be difficult for anybody and I pray that he won't let it ruin his life, God help him to not blame himself for the mistakes of his grandma made and help him to see the good behind it, that maybe his parents will think deeper about death and what they want to do with there life. Help him to not be depressed not blame himself for other's mistakes, but to really rebound and have a much more radical zeal, a bolder attitude. I know he can take it one of two ways and I pray that he'll take it the right way. That instead of hanging himself like Judas and getting all mad and depressed that he'll really decide to take it, overcome it like a man and allow it to inspire him to change the world, to not make the same mistakes if mistakes were made and to focus on doing everything he can to help his family and friends make it all the way so he can have some joyous deaths in a way.
Father I pray that Kevin Tang can be a man of honesty. That he'll be known for being completely honest at all times in all ways even when it hurts, even when it's challenging to be honest when the truth hurts. I pray that he'll overcome his insecurities that he'll hate what is evil and cling to what's good. Father help him to focus on the future and not dwell on the past, to truly love people not just by compliments but by instiling courage in their hearts and minds. Father I pray that you'll help him and all of us to be known as a household of deep integrity of truth and love, not saying the easy stuff but dealing with the hard stuff. Father I love you I need you and so does kevin help him to understand that a lie is one of the scariest most serious things and I pray that he'll fully grasp the concept and be completely honest even if it's going to make him or someone else look bad to a certain extent. God I love him and I know that he'll be a mighty man of God if he can conquer thesethings, please give him strength to overcome them.
Lord I pray that I will overcome the rollercoaster ride of life that i"ve been so caught up in lately with my high hi's and lowlo's I'm so sorry for not being consistantly epic. And instead being an epic failure. Help me not to be discouraged or angry or blame anyone for my shortcomings but rather I pray that you'll help me to overcome evil with good, to NOT delight in evil but REJOICE with the truth. Father I need your help in this it's not something I try to do or plan to do in any way by no means but I know that you can make anything happen and I know your spirit is prevalent in my life and I pray that you'll really help me see and understand how great you are indeed.
Before I forget Lord help Joe to really be epic. I know he's kind of bummed about work and it's been a huge chalenge for him, I know that your really using him in a great way just using his gifts to really connect with people. Lord please be with his health, help him to really excel right now and shine the way that you've caled him to shine. I know that he has a lot of challenges with the debt and with school and stuff and I pray you'll really encourage him today, please do something in his life right now to keep him up and keep him staying up so he'll never look down. I pray that you'll bless his time his life his everything so that he can remain the faithful bold man he is. Please also help him find a wife someday, the perfect wife though. Help him to see and understand that it doesn't really matter what she looks like but whether she's going to help him make it to heaven.
Father I want to pray for Kirk, help him to really use his radiant beautiful talents to give you an immense amount of praise. You've really blessed him with an amazing amount of talents and i pray he'll stop using them for selfish motives and really start using them to glorify you in a more radical way. Please give him the motivation to not be an observer, not a follower but a leader, an inspiration to the world and to the ministry. Help everything to just go amazing with his young single's group he's starting I know that it's going to be excellent that he's going to do a great job and I'm super grateful that he's already denying himself by going to this concert tonight. Please help him to keep up the good work, keep up the love and just glorify you with all his talents and his life.
Lord please please be with Nick I know he's doing so great just connecting with brothers and getting out of his comfort zone. He's such a cool guy and another man of many rad talents. He's athletic and sharp and I know that you're using him right now but I pray you'll use him in even more radical ways that he'll use his experience to connect with people and lead them to you. Please help him to build an immense knowledge base in the bible, to really be prepared to answer questions and get deeper with people who might be on a higher biblical knowledge. But I pray that he'll also remember that it doesn't matter how much you know but rather how much you care. Help him to also get bold and radical in his prayer life. It's cool he's going to read through the psalms and I know that will help him connect with you deeeply, I pray that everyting can go amazing with him and Olivia that they can really grow in their friendship and that that can lead to whatever will be best for both of them and their relationship with you!
And once again lord please help Rhett. I know he's going thru a super difficult transition right now like it must be impossible for him to not have regrets but I pray he'll keep up the faith, not blame anything or anyone or you but that he can really just persevere through the challenging times ahead and wake up and change the things that need to be changed and really fight with all his heart and mind for the singles minsitry. I love him and know that your going to use him wherever he is.

Your awesome god I love you like crazy, please fill us ALL up with wisdom and discipline and an immense amount of joy. Your the best. much love.
