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!

Call to Prayer, calling all prayer warriors:)

Our loving father in heaven, I come to you this evening with thanksgiving for all the blessings that  you allow me,  I welcome the good as well as the bad, I know that in order for us to learn and progress that we must have the negative to show proof to you that the love we feel for you is real and true. That our faith is in all things not just those that please us. Father I ask that you continue to shelter those who are suffering loss this evening, for those who feel they cannot continue the march, that you will love them, and wrap a wall of protection around them as only a father can! I ask that you touch those who are suffering depression and stress father, that you calm their minds and allow them to see that the road is a long one, and that they all will struggle at times but never alone, give them peace of mind that you are there with them and that if they cling tight to you there is nothing that they cannot overcome. Father be with the family of Lauren Spierer as the search for her continues, lead the searchers in the right direction father so that this family can begin the next stage in their lives. Father be with the ones suffering the effects of cancer, give them comfort in their bodies as they go through their treatments, allow them to feel your closeness so that they can remain positive and in good spirits. Father be with those who are beginning their journey home, allow them calm and free them from fear, allow them to transition with the arms of the ones who await them wide open and welcoming. Father bless the new babies, protect them from any neglect and abuse, allow the new parents to see how important the job you have given them is, allow them to feel the trust you are placing upon them in raising your children. Father touch the hearts of our youth that they might see what all the misdeeds have done to our country, fill their hearts with the will to strive to make our world a better place as they are our futures here on earth. Bless those struggling with addiction father, show them something this very evening that will make them strive to be rid of the drink and drug, give them strength and a renewed hope, be with those who suffer broken relationships providing them with peace of heart. As always bless our men and women in the military, bless them for fighting to keep us with the ability to speak to you free from persecution. Also continue to hold those who suffered devastations from the storms, keep them close father until they are ready to stand on their own.  We are all in need of your mercies father, I ask that you continue to hold my family and friends in your hands, I ask that you allow them to feel the amount of love there is for them and that you keep them safe from harm and in good health. I ask these things father in the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
