Blessed be the name of the Lord,
Blessed be the name.
Blessed be the name of the Lord,
Blessed be your glorious name.

You give and take away,
you give and take away,
my heart still choose to say,
Lord blessed be your name.


Luke 1:46-55
46And Mary said: "My soul glorifies the Lord 47and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, 48for he has been mindful of the humble state of his servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed, 49for the Mighty One has done great things for me— holy is his name. 50His mercy extends to those who fear him, from generation to generation. 51He has performed mighty deeds with his arm; he has scattered those who are proud in their inmost thoughts. 52He has brought down rulers from their thrones but has lifted up the humble. 53He has filled the hungry with good things but has sent the rich away empty. 54He has helped his servant Israel, remembering to be merciful 55to Abraham and his descendants forever, even as he said to our fathers."



1) Praising God and blessing His name in the midst of hard times. Just as how Mary did, and praised God and rejoiced in Him. Remembering all the great things that God has done for us.

O Lord, help me to be able to bless your name even amidst the hard times, help me to shift all emotions to you. Take control of my emotions so that i will not succumb to angry or sorrow when it comes to the hard times. Instead Lord, i pray that you give me the confidence to trust enough in you, so much so that i am able to confidently praise you in advance for the good things you have yet to bring.

His mercy extends to those who fear him, from generation to generation.
He has brought down rulers from their thrones but has lifted up the humble.

We are to humble ourselves and fear God so that He may extend His mercy towards our iniquities. Lord, teach me to bow down towards you, to be so humble, so self-sacrificial for your kingdom.


He has filled the hungry with good things but has sent the rich away empty. Being hungry for God, and not full of God. Because we can never be contented with God, as God is able to give so much more.


Lord, i m very sleepy now, teach me your ways O Lord, and teach me how to trust certain people again. Anyway Lord, i thank you for today and for allowing it to be quite a smooth going day, that is really fun. Thank you Lord for allowing that to happen.


Thank you Lord,
and i pray for __________ that he/she will get well soon. Lord you protect and watch over him/her. Thank you Lord for the things that you are going to do in the future. Love you Lord.


In Jesus' name i pray,
Amen.
