Heavenly Father,
We come before You with hearts full of gratitude and praise. Thank You for Your protection and guidance as we traveled safely to and from our grandparents' house. We are deeply grateful for the opportunity to reconnect with our family's history and memories, and for the decision to keep the house for now.
Lord, we also lift up the situation regarding the attempted break-in. We ask for Your continued protection over the property and for wisdom and guidance for the local authorities as they address the issues related to drug and poverty in the area. May Your peace and justice prevail.
As we prepare to return for Labor Day, we ask for Your traveling mercies once again. Keep us safe on the road and bless our time together as a family. Thank You for the countless blessings You have bestowed upon us, and may we always remember to give You thanks and praise.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
