Blessing Prayer Collection
The blessing prayers that follow are used as part of Journey Toward Wholeness,

I bless you with experiencing His presence in the night as your subconscious mind and your spirit are open to the Spirit of God, so He can minister to your spirit while your conscious mind is not cluttering up the works.
