Somewhere, someone NEEDS this song! I LOVE the writing and songs of Matthew West, they speak to me, as this one does. It serves as a daily reminder that we're all going through various stresses and pressures of LIFE, family, and business and the best thing to do throughout all of it is Don't Stop Praying!

Listen to my song "Don't Stop Praying" here: Connect with me!Newsletter: https://matthewwest.lnk.to/emailsignupText List: https://matthewwest.lnk.to/Communit...

Thanks Brent Long on Life LLC for sharing. I took some liberties, as it spoke to me directly but THANK YOU for everything you do to help us stay grounded in our faith, focused on goals, holding ourselves accountable, and keeping our Lord at the center of it all!

Monday Morning Prayer:

Lord, I do not know the answers, but I know The One who knows the answers…which is why I’m coming to you in prayer today.

What is my week going to look like?
What do you want me to focus on this week?
Who are we going to serve this week?
How will you provide for what is needed?
Can you help me trust you each day this week?
Please lead me into the productive work you have set aside for me to do this week?
Give me the strength and power to trust you for my provisions?
Help me serve others with honor and integrity while trusting you for my provisions?
Show me where I am supposed to go, outside of my comfort zone, for the provision you already promised?
Give me the strategy and the creativity that is needed this week?
Guide me into the very situations you designed me to work on this week?
Please increase my faith and my ability to trust you this week?
Show me places where I can grow and give me the courage to grow in those areas this week?
Help me be different (more like Jesus) at the end of this week than I am on this Monday?
Give me the clarity of vision to see the issues and challenges, and the courage to walk into the tension of those you have given me to serve this week?
Please remind me that I am not God, but that you are, and you are in control of all things, and I don’t have to be, because I can’t be anyway!?
Help me balance performance and rest this week?
Grant me a peace that I cannot explain in the middle of situations I cannot control?
Fill me full of compassion for those I would normally not want to be around, and use me to bring about your will in a way that glorifies only you?

Can we get all this done this week and then start again with the same prayer next Monday? And the Monday after that?
