LORD Jesus, we pray for Ray as he interviews for this new position. Keep his spirit calm so that he interviews well. Use him on his job site to spread the Good News of Jesus.

You are our God Who always was, You are our God Who always is, You are our God Who always will be. Blessed be the name of our LORD. You knew us before the foundations of the earth we laid - and You loved us then with an everlasting love.
Holy Father, be with all who are on our prayer chain. Each of them is a beloved child of Yours. Each of them desires that they bring glory to Your name. Continue to move in their lives.

We thank You, LORD of All, for Your great love for us. When we are unfaithful to You, You remain faithful to us. When we turn from You, You never turn from us. When our love for You is weak - Your love for us remains strong. You are the source of our lives. We love You.
