Father, please lead and guide Cocoa as she goes to and from work. 
Especially if it's dark when she leaves.  Help her to not have a spirit of 
fear, for your word tells us that we should not have a spirit of fear for 
you have not given us one, but a spirit of love, peace, and of a sound mind. 
Well, I might not have quoted it quite right.  Anyway Lord, you know and are 
watching out for the children that you have created.  Thank you Lord.  We 
know that you will watch Cocoa, and that it's done now.  In Jesus' name, 
amen.  Cocoa, you might want to get a vest.  I don'tk now if you got your 
dog from Seeing Eye, but they have vests that our graduates can wear to help 
people to see them in the dark.  This would be for the folks that run that 
red light.  Brad had good ideas about taking different routes if you can, 
and by leaving at different times.  Do you have a cell phone?  We suggest 
that people have their cell phones on them and at least you can call 911. 
It's not so strange sounding.  Once when I first brought Kermit home I got 
confused and a lady was getting mad at me for not correcting Kermit and then 
when I did that she called 911 on me.  I right then and there called Seeing 
Eye.  I have had to call 911 once when Igot lost.  You might take these tips 
with you.  Carry something with you that makes noise, and not in your purse. 
I have an old flashlight I got from somewhere and it has a siren on it. 
Just some thoughts.  God be with you, and may you carry His annointing and 
peace with you.
