Beloved Father in heaven,

Your hand is on all things LORD, big and small. You know all things that happen here Father. There are many J1s now LORD, who are anxious about whether their appeal to ACJC will be successful within the next two days.

You have shown me much through this year LORD, and I know that You will do the same for the new and exisitng batch of J1s. I have enjoyed fellowship and bonding with my friends whom You have placed in my life and I know LORD that likewise, the J1s will enjoy the same fellowship as I have.

LORD, You have placed countless J1s in my life this year LORD. You have taught me to feel for them and to love them. Now that some of them have to leave due to choice or otherwise, You know that it has impacted me considerably. Though the days spent with them were little, the friendships forged were strong. They have become an integral part of my life LORD and You know how much I long to fellowship with them once again be it through orientation, through CF, through outings or even through casual chats.

Now Father, if You are willing, allow the J1s to return to ACJC to enjoy the environment in which I have developed in for the past year. Let them be part of the family in ACJC to grow in love for each other and for You LORD. I really hope to see each and every one of them return.

Nevertheless LORD, not my will but Yours be done. If You have planned for them to be in other places, let it be done. I trust LORD that You know what is best for them, where they will prosper most and where they will come to know You better or shine for You.

Let them know that wherever they are LORD, You are always there for them whenever they need a close Friend, whenever they need support and whenever they need guidance. Above all LORD, let them grow in You, to know You in such a close and personal way like never before.

May Your presence be with them always, LORD.

Amen.
