A Prayer for In Between Services
September 8, 2025
I have the privilege of leading multiple worship services on Sunday morning. On mornings I make it back into my office and have a quiet moment I try to pray this prayer. I hope it blesses you.
Heavenly Father,
Thank you for the work accomplished in the earlier service of worship. I (or We) pray for the seeds planted, decisions made, and the next steps considered.
We thank you for Your presence that abides when your people gather to worship.
Father, remind me how my work for the day is not done. Help me to lead the next service refreshed and rejuvenated while trusting in Your goodness.
Jesus, would you also remind me how this service is not about my work, effort, or my ability to make little or no mistakes. Help me to remember it is all about You and Your goodness.
May the Spirit guide me to speak boldly and powerfully, full of Your grace and truth.
In Jesus Name, AMEN.
Journaling Prompts for the Last 1/3 of 2025
September 1, 2025
As we enter the final four months of 2025 here are 5 questions I am journaling through.
#1 What is something I am not doing but believe it will give me life if I can incorporate it into the final stretch of 2025?
#2 What area has my progress slowed in for 2025? How do I feel about this?
#3 What can I start thinking through to have a great 2026?
#4 Who is someone I can show love to in the final quarter of 2025 and how can I do this?
#5 How and where can I create more margin to listen for God?
A Prayer for the 2025 Sweet Onion Festival
May 10, 2025
Introduction
Hello, My name is David Wesley Donnan and it is my privilege to serve the great people of the Glennville Methodist Church. We’d love to have you join us at 9:00 a.m. or 11:00 a.m. for worship on Sundays. But if you don’t join us we have so many great Bible believing churches in our community.
Prayer
Would you pray with me?
Heavenly Father, we give you thanks for the wonderful parade we have already enjoyed today and ask for your continued safety, joy, and protection here today. Would you bless us with a beautiful festival today?
May vendors find success, families make core happy memories, performers on this stage bring you glory, and may the beauty of this great community be highlighted for the world to see.
Jesus, we know you asked your followers to pray to the Lord of the Harvest. We are once again thankful for the wonderful sweet onion harvest we are experiencing right now. We give thanks for the farmers and field workers who make us known around the world with the bounty of our crops.
Holy Spirit, guide us today. Help us to enjoy this day with a spirit of love and gratitude for our community leaders, volunteers, and first responders who make today and all days so special.
Help us to love each other well and experience you love for us today… and please keep the rain away.
In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.
