Good morning, Lord.  Thank you for another day in the desert with you.  It rained hard all night, and stormed and thundered.  It was a wonder that noone woke up.  Today is Michu´s birthday party.  Lord, this is one time that I want to pray about the weather.  We have such a small duplex and there are 15 to 20 kids coming.  Lord, it would be great if the weather dried up this afternoon and the rain continue this evening.  Thank you, Lord.

I´m so excited about the Book Trailer and the Ministry Intro video.  They are both looking good and we almost have the translations done in Spanish as well.  Lord, I believe that you will use these tools to help us get the message of your grace out to many people.  Thank you for choosing to work with us.  Keep us humble and useful to your purposes.  We want to do even more and we pray for the resources necessary to launch this ministry full time.

Lord, we pray for a lot of early supporters who will come to the faithlauncher campaign and make a donation, write a comment or lift up a prayer.  When there is activity on the site, it encourages others to participate as well.  Lord, we need your blessing and your anointing and we pray that you would bless each and every day and all of our efforts to communicate with everyone.  Lord, some people we haven´t talked to for years.  Others we are in contact with regularly.  Some people may not have fond memories of us and others may have something against us.  Lord, we pray that you would give us a chance to make things right with everyone and to  live out of a repentant lifestyle, making restitution wherever possible and seeking reconciliation with as many people as possible.  Lord, you know that we have had business and personal difficulties in the past and that we continue to take seriously our responsibility to make things right.  We also know that restitution is not enough and that true forgiveness is a gift that we receive from you and pass on to others.  Thank you, Lord, for your grace in our lives.  We belong to you.  In your name, I pray.  Amen.
