Lord, 

Happy New Year!

Welcome to 2024!

Thank You, God, for letting me see the new year!

Last year, 2023, was a rough year, in my opinion, 

However, You pulled me through. 

This year, I don’t request anything. 

Just peace and wisdom. 

God show me how to live moment by moment. 

Enjoy everything and depend on You!

In Jesus’ name

Amen!

Dear Lord, 

Thank You for keeping me alive in 2023. 

Thank You for all of the blessings You have given us: Lilly, saving Alex, saving me, Maria, my mom, and Tina. 

This year was a very rough year when it comes to sickness and accidents. 

Thank You for pulling all of us through. 

Lord, I know 2024 will be a great year. 

Happy Birthday! Thank you for the great day. 

I am glad that most of the stores were closed on your birthday. 

I pray they took time to remember You. 

As each day comes, please guide me to be the best person I can be. 

I want to help others with my talents. 

I pray in Jesus’ name, 

Amen.

Dear Lord,

It has been a long time since I wrote a journal entry about my conversations with You.

I should not let people discourage me from doing something I want.

I will keep at this, and I will do better when the next test comes.

Lord, thank You for Your blessings yesterday afternoon.

First, by providing us with the resources to help my daughter with her needs.

Second, by depositing the bonus into my checking account.

God, we know that You will always provide.

I had a plan “B” and “C” to cover the expenses for the upcoming payday.

However, with Your blessing, that would not be necessary.

I pray that I will get over this cold and that nobody gets this.

I think this is one of the most extended times I have had one.

Lord, I pray for my family and thank You for letting my daughter and her family move into their new house.

Please bless their home, and I pray that You will keep the evil spirits away from them and their home.

Please bless my wife and protect her.

In Jesus name, I pray,

Amen

Dear Lord,

Thank You for the awesome nap that I just woke up from.

It did many wonders, such as restoring my energy, educating my mind, and getting me away from the computers.

I know it isn’t good when I say computers because there is more than one that I work and write from, such as the Dell that my company gave me, the Mac, the iPad, and the iPhone.

The only device that I didn’t use often was the Apple Watch.

I use that for exercise.

God, it was great talking to my mom this morning.

I pray that her health keeps improving and she has a great Thanksgiving.

I also pray that Alex, Eric, Piper, and Lilly have a great Thanksgiving.

Tomorrow is the day of the inspection of the house

I hope Alex is there to look around and point things out.

I pray that the builders did a great job building the house and that they can move in sooner than December 4th.

Please take care of Maria and give her what she prays for.

She is a great example of a child of God.

She is very close to You.

Well, this is the last entry in this journal.

The device has given me a lot of great memories, creative writings, and directions on how to do my job back in 2017 and 2018.

I hope that my writings will help someone and be a blessing.

Only through You, Lord, this will happen.

Now, it is on to the next journal.

Thank You again for giving me the wisdom and the creativity to write.

In Jesus name,

Amen

Dear God, 

Thank You for this beautiful day and the opportunity to have a coffee and a donut at one of my favorite places to go…Dunkin!!

Please forgive me for my sins. 

I need help with everything. 

I pray that You will help me with all!

Thank You for the excellent performance review that I received.

I know I didn’t deserve it, 

especially after all of the time I thought terrible things and didn’t work 8 hours each day as I was supposed to. 

My wife is right, 

I need to work the entire day if I am getting paid the whole day, 

and if I do not have anything to do, I will need to find something. 

Which includes professional development. 

Please forgive me for not dedicating my work hours to work. 

I pray that my daughter and her family will have the house soon. 

A lot sooner than the 4th of December. 

I hope they have a great weekend. 

I also pray that they have lovely weather. 

Thank you for Maira, and I pray that You bless her. 

Thank you for the Christmas music and the place I live. 

At least they didn’t get rid of your birthday!!

In all this, I pray in Jesus’ name, 

Amen. 

Our Father, 

I thank You each and every day that You let me live. 

I enjoy waking up each morning, opening my eyes, and seeing everything outside. 

Each day allows me to start fresh and make things right. 

Lord, there are many things going on right now, and I read and believe that You can take control of everything so that we do not have to worry about it. 

I have total faith in this. 

Lord, I also know that You will show me the way forever. 

There is nothing to fear or dread. 

I will be able to help in any way I can as You show me what to do and where to go!

Thank You, God, for everything. 

I pray for Your blessings, strength, and wisdom!

Please forgive me for my sins!

In Jesus name, 

Amen

Dear God,

Thank You once again for this beautiful morning,

Also, thank You for my family!

I am so happy to be with them.

I pray that I can help them in any way that I can!

Lord, I know that I am bouncing back and forth with many things, such as business, writing a book, writing blogs, and regular work.

I can be confused about what to concentrate on and what to spend less time.

The work is giving me the paycheck and the benefits, but it is not keeping me busy.

Writing is fun, but I can spend so much time on it before I get bored.

The business can be beneficial. However, I don’t have any revenue coming in.

As mentioned in my previous pages, I need to spend more time on the business.

I also need to spend more time on the writing.

I enjoy the writing the most.

Lord, Thank You for the dream last night that I was given my “pink slip” at work. Then, I was in another place and given something to do to clear my name.

I had to prove my innocence.

That was a wild dream.

I know that You can translate the dream if you like.

I always pray for a creative mind and peace in my heart.

God, I know that you can give it to me!

I pray that You please forgive me for my sins!

In Jesus name!

Amen

 

P.S. Lord, I always pray that this writing will help at least one person!!

Lord, 

In the past few days, I have been watching “The Chosen,” which chronicles the life of Jesus and his disciples during the ministry. 

“The Chosen” has really touched my life, and I believe it has also been a big blessing to Maria. 

Thank You, God, for your ministry and for touching many lives on Earth and Heaven.

We look forward to your return. 

God, There have been many times when I have asked myself, “Why continue to write?” “Why do I need to journal?” Then I thought about what I wrote previously: “As long as one person receives a blessing from you because of what they read, then I will continue writing.”

I believe that is the case, and I have faith that these words, plus the words that You have spoken and written, will bring happiness and joy to all. 

In Jesus name, 

Amen. 

Happy Veterans Day, Lord!

Today is a great day to remember those who have served before, those who were in the military while I was in it, and the current service members.

I pray that You will please bless all of us, including our families.

Not only did we have to make sacrifices, but our families also had to make sacrifices.

They deserve as much of the praise as we do!

Lord, thank You for the beautiful pictures my daughter and her husband took today at the Dinosaur Park.

I cannot forget that my granddaughter also took some great pictures.

I thank You for blessing them today!

Also, thank You for helping my wife bake that bread today.

It was very delicious, and I enjoyed every moment of eating it.

I am looking forward to tomorrow morning.

Thanks again for the wonderful day. I look forward to writing to you in the morning,

In Jesus name,

Amen

Thank You Lord for giving me a good night sleep last night in the easy chair.

It was the first time in awhile I was able to sleep all night from bedtime to morning without waking up and going to the bathroom.

Thank you for letting me open my eyes and letting me do things that I plan to do this morning, such as work on my book, write in the journal, buy eggs at Publix, and enjoy a cup of coffee at Dunkin.

Lord it is great to see the certificate that Alex earned attending the online training.

I know that she is proud and I am proud of her.

Also, it was great that Eric, Piper, and Lilly gave her flowers when she came home from work last night.

Thank you God for everything and for giving me another chance.

Please bless my appointment this afternoon with the dentist.

In Jesus name,

Amen
