Julianne

This beautiful girl is downstairs packing to go back to college tomorrow.  This summer went by so fast I feel like I didn't get any quality time with her.  She took some online classes this summer to try to improve her GPA.  She worked alot at the YMCA not only in Day Camp but also Child Watch.  And she drove up to Warren to see her boyfriends a couple of times.  We did manage to have a quick visit to Colorado to visit Teen and a wonderful time at Grandma's Birthday Tea Party.
Time goes by so fast.  I hope she realizes just how much she is loved and how much I will miss her.  Yesterday she was a little girl promising me she would never grow up.  I know that is wasn't going to happen, but it didn't have to go so fast.

Father God, I pray that Julianne will have a great year at Edinboro this year.  I ask you to lead her to good friends that will help her to grow in compassion,  joy, and organization.  I pray she will have interesting teachers that will guide her as she studies to become one of them.  Help her to make time for what is important and to be patient with herself and her friends.  Give her Your peace in times of trouble.  Keep her mind clear to learn what she needs to learn.  Open doors that need to open and close doors that lead her away from Your plan for her.  I pray for an army of angels to surround her everyday.  Keep her safe as she travels back and forth.  I know that You love her even more than I do because You made her and she is "Fearfully and wonderfully made."

All this I ask in Jesus name,

Amen.
