Open your arms to Jesus

Open your arms to Jesus,

Last week, I posted a Prayer for the Elderly and after receiving so many positive comments I decided to make the focus on this Sunday, and all of the Sundays to follow, to be all about Him. Here is our prayer; 
                                                                                                                           Father, I come to you in Jesus' name and ask for Your blessings upon all the elderly. Help us to learn from their wisdom and to share it with others. May you warm their 'winter years' with the assurance of eternal life. Please give inner peace to those who suffer with Alzheimer's, dementia or any type of mental illness. May the younger generation realize that with your blessings, we too; will be elderly someday, so as to remind us to apply our patience when we're in the presence of an elderly person. Send them dreams of Heaven and fill their rooms with your angels. Calm their fears of loneliness with whispers from the Holy Spirit, assuring them that: You will NEVER leave them alone,but be with them always! Ease their pain and discomforts, I pray. And I thank you dear Lord for all the elderly that remain in our lives today!

I ask it all in the name above every name, the name of our Savior and Lord, Jesus Christ, the Son of the true and the living God! Amen.                                                                                                                          
As Kerry and I work doing our daily responsibilities, we are reminded of that saying, “There but for the grace of God go I.”  We can count our blessing and give praise.
