Helping People Encounter God's Kindness
Blessed Beyond the Mess
God's Kindness Quest Series
Congrats for completing the Kindness Quest, persevering through
Or did you skip to the end for a peek or two
I bless you to partner with Father God, overcoming every mess
Implementing his personalized plan for success
I bless you to be courageous, without fear
Boldly pursuing godliness, every year
I bless you to receive God’s peace, free of worry
Having patience for the Lord’s timing, never in a hurry
I bless you to walk God's lit path, without self-effort and striving
Empowered by Father God, his definition of thriving
I bless you to conquer lust and pornography
Reflecting the Lord’s holiness and purity
I bless you to love boldly, without reservation or heartache
Resolutely trusting Holy Spirit, regardless of what’s at stake
I bless you to accept God's adoption, free of an orphan mentality
May basking 24-7 in Abba Father’s presence be your normality
I bless your body to be mobile and flexible, without pain
Complete physical and emotional healing in Jesus' name
I bless you to dwell in God’s designated promised land
Equipped, empowered, and anointed by his mighty hand
I bless you to be God’s vessel of love and grace
While in this earthly dwelling place
I pray this time connecting with God has renewed your view
Receiving his loving-kindness and showing some too
May the love which never fails continuously flow through you
Saturating everything you think, say, and do

Prayer
James 5:16 (NLT), "... The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results."
Wow, Lord! What a journey together! Your revelatory encounters, love, and kindness are far beyond what I expected. Everything else I tried to find happiness and joy in now seems so ridiculous and unsatisfying, when compared to five minutes in your presence.
Thank you for revealing how my belief systems and ways of coping have hindered me from receiving and giving godly love. Most importantly, thank you for the frequent personal interactions. Your truth, grace, mercy, acceptance, and love have been a healing balm to what I thought was hopelessly broken.
I know there is more to do within me. Yet, I have hope and faith. I know you will be close and personal as we move forward together. Help me stay focused on you, in step with your timing. I needed a father more than I knew. Your adoption of me is priceless and cherished. I receive every blessing and benefit of being your child. Amen.

"Lord, you are mine! I promise to obey your words! With all my heart I want your blessings. Be merciful as you promised. I pondered the direction of my life, and I turned to follow your laws. I will hurry, without delay, to obey your commands. Evil people try to drag me into sin, but I am firmly anchored to your instructions. I rise at midnight to thank you for your just regulations. I am a friend to anyone who fears you—anyone who obeys your commandments. O Lord, your unfailing love fills the earth; teach me your decrees."
Proverbs 13:21 (NLT)
"Trouble chases sinners, while blessings reward the righteous."
