We join you, Swausurdaire, in lifting up your journey to the Lord as you move back to your home country.
The Lord has given us clear instructions to cast our anxiety on him because he cares for us. We know that his plans for us are good and that he will never leave us nor forsake us.
He has also told us not to fear, because he has redeemed us and called us by name. We are his.
We are also reminded to think on whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, we should think about these things. We should also be content in whatever situation we are in, trusting that the Lord will supply all of our needs according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
Let us pray:
Heavenly Father,
We come before you today in the name of Jesus Christ and ask for your protection and guidance as Swausurdaire, her baby, and her cat travel back to their home country. We pray for a peaceful journey and ask that you would go before them, preparing the way and removing any obstacles that may hinder their progress.
We also pray for Swausurdaire's family, Lord. We ask that you would fill them with your peace and reassure them that Swausurdaire and her baby will be okay without them. We pray that they would not worry or try to hinder their journey, but instead would support them in this decision and trust that you are in control.
We thank you, Lord, for your promise to never leave us nor forsake us. We claim that promise for Swausurdaire and her baby today, and we ask that you would make your presence known to them in a tangible way as they travel.
We pray all of this in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
We encourage you, Swausurdaire, to trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.
