Tribute to the Trinity Bohm book Vol III is a collection of short (under 50 words) contemporary Christian prayers written by two Kansas authors: Barbara and Elsie Bohm. The prayers are on a range of topics. Some are traditional, some are on nature themes, some are patriotic, some have technology themes, some have holiday themes, and some are healing prayers: but all are Christian and short.

CHAPTER 1
Praise My Lord God,
Who heals those who petition him.
I turned to you in my distress,
And my prayers were answered.
Your mercy is without end.
Thank you, My Lord God. Amen.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
Dear Jesus,
It will soon be Christmas,
and Christians will celebrate that You were born to be Our
Savior.
You came that we might know God and reach Heaven.
Thank you, Jesus.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
Very God of Very God:
Almighty God—
There is none before Thee!
All in Heaven bow before Your Throne.
Without You, I am dust.
Glory be to God in the highest.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
Sweet Lord,
Today I struggle with my computer upgrade
to make my computer a better computer
so it can serve me better.
Please have patience in your attempts
to upgrade me into a better Christian
that I might also serve better.
Amen.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist church
Sweet Jesus,
You are my one true love.
Who could compare with you?
May my heart be as great as yours,
Who gave your very life to save others.
Be my Valentine!
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
Dear God,
As I watch the unique and beautiful snowflakes fall,
I pause and dwell upon the unique and lovely
moments of joy You grant me each day, Lord.
Thank you, Lord,
For the overflowing cup of grace You
Prepare daily for me.
Amen.

I wish to walk with You, Lord.

As the sun rises this glorious Easter morn, I rejoice:
Christ is risen!
His grace and mercy pours over my sins,
Cleansing me so I might enter God's Presence
and
stand before the Very Throne.
Amen.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
Dear Father,
You sent your Son, Jesus, to guide us.
But He had to return to You,
so You sent the Holy Spirit to keep us from going
astray.
Thank you for all your help.
Amen.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
Dear Lord,
When I was baptized and reborn,
Was I given a new name?
A new name symbolizing the new person
I had become?
Will I be addressed by it when I stand
at the Very Gates of Heaven?
Amen.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
On Mother's Day,
We honor mothers everywhere.
Let us particularly remember Mary
Who bore our Savior Jesus
So obediently to God.
Thank you God that You guided mothers
like Mary so that we now have salvation.
Amen.

Thank you,
Lord,
For the warm sunshine which lights my way
the same way You light my path in life.

and
thank you for coming into my life.
Amen.

and
help us to follow Your Path.
Amen.

What could be better than chocolate?
You are, Lord!
You are sweeter than sweet.
I want you every day with me by my side.
Better yet,
You are not even fattening!
Amen.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
Sweet Lord above,
You do not require altar sacrifices from us,
unlike the pagan idols of old.
What you do ask of us
is that we acknowledge all you do for us,
with our praise.
Thank you God for the sacrifice
Your Son Jesus made for us.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
Oh Lord, I wait, I wait, I wait
To see the unfolding of Thy Will in all it's glory.
I know Your Time is not my time.
But,
nothing can excel Your Plans.
Amen.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
Gracious God above,
You pour blessings over me
in an unending stream,
one after another.
How can I thank you enough for
Coming into my life?
How can I thank you enough for
my friends and family?
How can I thank you enough for
sending Your Son Jesus?
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
blessed jesus,
you came that I might be adopted
into your family by god.
Before you came,
Gentiles were orphans indeed.
Now we can come home to god.
Thank you, jesus.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
Oh, star of light which shines
down on Christmas Eve,
lightening the path of our Savior,
Jesus.
He was born to save us,
Jews and gentiles alike.
Thank you, Jesus.
Amen.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
Sweet Lord,
When my car is broken,
my heart breaks, too.
I know your heart breaks likewise
when I am broken.
Likewise I know I was surely made to serve you,
Lord,
as my car was made to serve me.
Amen.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
My beloved Lord and Savior,
As the New Year dawns,
each dawn opening with the blessings
You shower down on me,
may I never stray from your side
In my walk in life.
Amen.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
Dear Lord,
I can look you up on the Internet,
but in fact I will seek you there in vain.
I need to turn to your Word
and
to turn inward to find Your Presence.
Amen.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
please hear my plea, oh lord.
I cry to the very heavens
in my distress.
My bones ache for your mercy.
Please forgive me
Where I have sinned
And
Grant me pardon.
Amen.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
I cannot speak enough praises to your name,
O Most High.
You rain mercy down on me
like the rain pours down on a rainy day.
You are a refuge for the oppressed
and
A stronghold in times of trouble.
You never forsake any who seek you.
Amen.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
Dear God,
I was struck down
and
could not use my legs.

You mercifully healed me.
Thank you,
Jesus.

safe and secure from all evil.
Praise God.

I lift up my soul.
I reach upwards to the very heavens

all the days of my life.
Amen.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church

I know I have sinned
and
broken Your Laws.
Please do not abandon me.
Please be my Redeemer.
Have mercy on me,
Most High.
Amen.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
I thank God I was born
with enough intelligence to recognize
You are the One True God.
Smart enough to be able to read
Your Word and understand it.
Thank you,
My Lord and Savior.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
Dear Jesus,
I know the elections are over.
But I did not elect you the Lord of my life—
You were born to be my Savior.
Thank you, Jesus.

Thank you for coming into my life.

Please help us Lord in these our anointed tasks.
Amen.

Dear God,
My car can quickly take me to my travel destination,

Heaven.
Thank you, Jesus.
Amen.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
Dear Lord,
My computer cries out for Windows 8
and
I have to have the latest Smart phone.
But my most important contact is with Thee,
Lord,
and that is with time honored prayer.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
Dear Lord,
My feather bed comforter is SO warm and cozy
this cold winter night.
Yet Your Loving Arms,
which You wrapped around me when I turned
my cares over to You in my bedtime prayers,
are warmer still.
Amen.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
Beloved God,
In my youth,
I fell away from You and Your Ways.
But,
You did not forsake me.
You called me by name
and
now I am Yours.
Praise God.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
what better drink can I find
than my starbucks coffee?
Only the uplifting sip
Of the communion cup
Which draws me nearer to thee,
Lord.
What could sustain me better?
Amen.
Barbara Bohm; Americus Methodist Church
As I sit here listening
at your memorial service,
reflecting on our years together,
I can only wonder when
and
where we will met again.
Will Jesus call you back to greet me
in Heaven?
Will we met before the Very Throne?
Praise God.

to glorify You.

Breathe your visions for my guidance
that I might know Your Will.

turning to the religious section to see
what my local church offers
to save me?

God sent Jesus so we could know God
and be saved.
