My Lord,
A new day of grace....
What can I possibly say to that?
Thank you for allowing me to hold Lesle's hand. Thank you for the rock and the penny.
You know my heart and my longing to be with you and I thank you that you are God and I am not. You desire to leave me here is to finish the work that you began. Who am I to question
that or rush it?!?!
Thank you for yesterday's grace, peace and moments of stillness. I felt you, I heard you and I found such incredible rest in you.
You are a God who knows me and who knows us. You even know the ones who have yet to call you Lord. You have plans for [them] also.
When I think of "them" and how I used to be one, I can still hear the softness of your voice and the loving ways that you wooed me into your heart.
You were so fervent with your desire for me and I still cry when I think of how you only wanted and still want the very best for me. You were calling me unto you so that I could stop hurting myself and finally be healed by you.
Exhale.....
Gratitude..........................
I love how you are that same God, the one who loved me way back then, in my sin and the one who will love me in all of my tomorrows as I continue to make mistakes.
You are the lover who does not point out my flaws. You do not condemn my failures. You would never turn your back on me and You when you say, "I love you," you don't change your mind!
Yes, you are My GOD!
Thank you that Lesley is with you. Thank you that your plans to return for us are according to your will and not man's.
Praises! Father, this morning I got to fellowship with Regenna and Karen and received some #amazing news! Thank you!!! You are a FAITHFUL God who REDEEMS! Thank you for the gift you gave to Dotty and Gerry. Thank you that Marty is growing closer to you. Thank you for the blessing you gave to the Bryant family. Thank you in advance for my daughter's new job. Thank you for the souls that will be saved at the Women's Retreat! Thank you for the financial blessings that you continue to give to me. Thank you for my parents health. Thank you for answering our Secret Sister's prayers. Thank you that I love my homework! Thank you for my big sister's family and the memories being made.
Prayers: Father, I lift up those names known and unknown who have a need. Those who know you and those who do not. Father, I pray your grace upon their lives. I pray for Salvation, forgiveness, repentance, healing, wisdom, discernment and a desire to want to come closer to you. I pray that they would want to lay aside anything that has taken your place; anything that is drawing them away from you and in the direction of sin. I pray that the enemy will not have his way and that any stronghold is loosed by your word, might and power. I pray that hearts would cry out to you and the name of Jesus and come running to the center of your will asking for a cleansing and a renewed Spirit. I pray that all things old will pass away and a new and fresh beginning would take place today. I pray that heads will be held high, walking in your grace and believing in whose they are. I pray that your word would penetrate hearts and take root in the marrow of every bone and that it would not be glossed over or rush through. That they would be still and meditate on your precepts and truth and seek your wisdom and anointing and go forth with confidence eager to bear fruit, to preach the gospel and to shine your light. Father, I pray that you would delay your coming until all souls are saved. As much as I long to see your face, I trust you when your words says that you want not one to perish but that all would be saved. I love you for that alone. Knowing that you love and care for each individual in spite of our circumstances and in spite of our sins. Who can stand against a God like that????? Yes, My Lord, this is my prayer and I thank you for never being too busy to hear me. In Jesus' precious name, amen.
Special prayer request: Father there are many who have prayed numerous things to you and have not received an answer. There are many who have prayed and are discouraged that you don't hear their request and even a number who wonder if you even care. My Lord, please give them confirmation that you hear and that you care. Please give them the strength and courage to continue waiting on your best. Please help them in any area of unbelief and please whisper assurance in a way and voice that would give them hope....HOPE that you are still on the throne and your best outcome is far greater than the one they are anticipating. In
Jesus' name, amen.
My Lord, thank you for holding my hand and for loving on me the way that you do.
Eternally yours
