Join me in prayer for those who feel there is no one to pray to!

     Good morning and happy Saturday! It is another beautiful morning here in Utah, if only these dratted flies would leave...of all the pesky bugs we could be bothered by, we have to have flies, they come in with the 4th of July and leave sometimes after labor day. It sure makes sitting out and enjoying the beautiful blessings that God has made for us a very difficult task at times! We definitely have the chill of an early fall in the air in the early light of day, it is not any cooler than it has been, the low 60's but the air seems lighter and a bit crisp.
     In prayer this morning I was pray, pray, praying for all of those who had special requests, for all who are struggling with health problems right now, for all those that I pray for each day...okay I confess I was praying for everyone and everything. I was thanking our Father in heaven for all he does for me specifically, for allowing me to understand what he needs me to do each do, for allowing me to be receptive to the Holy Ghost and for blessing me for being obedient. Today I pray that you will feel the blessings you have been so richly given, just the blessing of family and friend is a start. I read a post last evening of a man denying God, refusing to believe that there is anything there! I felt so sad for him I felt so sad that he would think this because bad things were happening in his life. I prayed that our father in heaven would reveal to him that he is there, that even though this young man is facing harsh trials and tribulations that they are not of God. I know how this young man feels, I would be lying if I said I didn't. There have been times in my life that I doubted, that the bad began to outweigh the good and I did not know what to believe! It took a lot of personal prayer, along with prayer from others to allow me to see the light, so today I ask that you join me in praying for the lost, the sad, the ones that doubt, I am asking God today to make a way for them to feel him even though there is denial. Will you join me please? If our prayers can lead one person back into the herd, we should pray, pray, pray. May this day be filled with goodness for you and yours and if you should cross a person who is a doubter, show them a smile and then find a place to pray for them. Lets work together to please our father in heaven! In the name of Jesus Christ our savior I pray for you and for yours, amen!

As always please go to the comment section and feel free to let us know of any specific prayer requests you have, we stand ready to lift those in need in prayer many times this day! God is love, he is merciful and if we go through our savior Jesus Christ all of our prayers will be answered. 

Quiet reflections!!!!

As I sat here tonight, I was filled with a longing for time alone, I felt like I needed solitude and serenity. I needed to shut myself off and listen to the still quiet voice of our father in heaven. I took the time I felt I needed, closed myself off from noise, and meditated, at first I felt disturbed because I could not get my mind to shut down, it seemed there was an urgency that I just could not get a hold on. I finally realized that God was really needing me to hear him and satan was really not wanting me to. I am at this time very, very thankful that I did take the time, because I really was in need of hearing what he needed me to hear! Praise the Lord that I was able to feel the promptings of God and was able to realize that satan was willing to do anything to distract me. That being said, I am feeling very peaceful tonight, I feel like I have a renewed sense of faith and that my soul is where it need be. It was a very touching time, I found myself in tears and I felt validated with this blog, when so many were requesting that I do something like this I became filled with fear, why would anyone want to read anything I had to write, why would anyone care? I talked it over with my sweet daughter and she was very encouraging so I decided to give it a whirl. I am so thankful for the following that are with me, I feel so humbled by the out pouring of love and the unbelievable support. I have hits from many countries of the world, I have many people that are subscribers to my emails that I have no idea who they are! It is exciting, it is overwhelming and to be honest it is scary. I keep waiting to be chastised or thought boring, I keep waiting for the flow of traffic to slow down but each day it increases by at least 20. I made a statement to my love when I started, if I am able to touch the heart of one person, if something I write brings just one person a little closer to our father in heaven then I am content and I know that God will be pleased. If ever any of you feel the need to comment whether it be positive or negative I welcome you! So I take this time to say THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, for giving me this opportunity!
Tonight I would like to ask special prayer for two people, one that I have come to love and cherish as a very, very, dear friend here on facebook, one who, through the love of Christ helped me when I was feeling lost and alone,  he is having some health problems and I would ask that you pray with me that with God's loving hands and the medicine the doctor's are giving him that he be healed and restored back to 100% health. Another prayer I beg you to join me in is very saddening to me, a young man in our military who served his tour in Afghanistan, he is now in Germany and is struggling with all that he saw while on the front line, he is facing so many visions of death and pain, he is being haunted by his being spared when his comrades perished. Please, please, please join me in lifting him in prayer, please pray fervently that God will literally cleanse this young man's mind and his feelings, let him know his value, let him understand that he has done what he was called to do and let him feel all of our love and our support. This war has hurt so many not only physically, but mentally, emotionally, and spiritually, lets continue to pray for each of our soldiers. Please continue to pray for those suffering illness, for those battling cancer, for those suffering loss, for those going through the hurdles of life and feeling like they are losing. Please keep me and mine in your prayers as I will do the same for each of you. May God's mercy, love, comfort, calm, and peace be in your every breath. amen!
