(Romans 12:5) Father, thank You that no matter where we go, we are never out of Your sight, Your reach, or Your care. May ___ feel Your presence and guiding hand during their travels. I pray ___ gets to show others a new side of Your character as they smile and interact with those they connect with. Connect them with people who need the revelation of Your love. I pray their smile sparks a conversation or simply shines a light in a dark place. The acknowledgement of a smile can brighten any stranger’s day. We live in a big universe, but it’s a small world because we’re all connected by Your heart. I pray ___, in turn, encounters people along their trip who carry and exemplify Your nature.  May they discover a new part of Your character by the people You put in their path. Thank You that they will come home and never be the same. May their stories spark a desire in others to discover the mysteries of Your love and the wonders of the world You created. Amen.
