How would you know????

If you never felt pain, then how would you know that I am a Healer? 

If you never had to pray, How would you know that I am a Deliverer? 

If you never had a trial, how could you call yourself an overcomer? 

If you never felt sadness, How would you know that I am a Comforter? 

If you never made a mistake, How would you know that I am a forgiver? 

If you knew all, How would you know that I will answer your questions? 

If you never were in trouble, How would you know that I will come to your rescue 

If you never were broken, Then how would you know that I can make you whole? 

If you never had a problem, How would you know that I can solve them? 

If you never had any suffering, Then how would you know what I went through? 

If you never went through the fire, Then how would you become pure? 

If I gave you all things, How would you appreciate them? 

If I never corrected you, How would you know that I love you? 

If you had all power, Then how would you learn to depend on me? 

If your life was perfect, Then what would you need me for? 

Love, 

Jesus 

God our Father, walk through my house and take away all my worries and illnesses and please watch over and heal my family as well as my wonderful friends, Lord ease the pain in their Hearts today...in Jesus name, Amen. 

Come and pray with me please...we need to be compassionate and obedient and pray.

    Good evening, really is it already the end of 'hump day"? The weeks just seem to be zooming by! Today I have been heavy in heart, my daughter's beau lost his grandfather this week and will be laid to rest tomorrow, I love this young man so much and am feel sad for he and his family! I pray for peace, comfort and calm for each of them and ask for them to be filled with the truths of everlasting life and being together again in the eternities!  Please lift them in prayer with me!
     I pray this day has been a good one for you and that the remainder of the week will be filled with an abundance of blessings. I invite you to come and pray over all of those who have made requests today, we need to be obedient and honor God by praying to him, we need to be compassionate and give of ourselves to others, we need to recognize when there is need and execute with prayer. Tonight I ask a special prayer for care givers, we tend to not realize how much it takes to tend a loved one, especially when we know the outcome will be making the journey to stand with our Father in heaven. I ask God to hold your hand each day, to be the strength you need as your loved one quietly begins their journey, to comfort you and to keep your heart filled with wonderful memories that have been made. I ask God to allow you peace in knowing that you are never alone and that your unconditional love will not go without blessing. By each of you I am inspired and I love you all. Please continue to pray for those who are struggling this night for life, if it be your will heavenly Father, be the very breath that allows them to heal and return 100%, for those going through rehabilitation be the determination they need to be made whole again. Let us pray for the lands that have suffered horrible droughts, floods, winds, earthquakes, fires and tornados, like a new flower blooming in a withered field give them hope of rebuild and regrowth. Be with those who are in the face of the typhoon, I pray for our country, I ask you father to keep us united as one nation under God, we need you to intercede and allow our country to once again thrive and be out of the recession that is literally smothering so many. Father I come to you with a humble heart asking these mercies and favors in the name of your beloved son, Jesus Christ, amen.
     Peace be with you!
     

calling my friends in Christ, need for mass prayer for two close to my heart.

     good evening, another long day for me, it seems I am making a habit of blogging later, sorry!  Tonight the first call to prayer is for two people close to my heart,  a young man very dear to me is suffering illness, it has not been diagnosed as of yet, he is suffering severe headache, high fever, confusion, unrest and pain! He is in route back to his home town as he works out of town, I pray that when he gets to the doctor it will be something simple, and he will soon begin to heal! The second is for a very dear facebook friend, she is suffering an infection to her leg that is not healing, she is in fear of possible amputation, please, please, please, my brothers and sisters in Christ pray with me for healing, for calm and for comfort in their healing, please heavenly father cover them with your loving hands and bring forth miracles in their bodies, make them whole, make them feel your spirit and your mercy. I ask that each of you continue in prayer with me for those suffering any illness, for those suffering depression, fatigue, stress, drama, for those suffering unemployment to find jobs,  for those allowing the everyday tensions of life to take away from their living. And always pray for our soldiers, give them comfort tonight in the knowledge that so many love them, that so many pray for them and that we will not quit until they are home. God we love you so much, we have faith that when we pray you listen and that you answer. I ask all of these blessings humbly in the name of my savior Jesus Christ, amen. 

Prayer

At the Close of a Difficult Day

I am very glad, Dear Lord that my bedtime has arrived. God this has been such a difficult day for me to get through. My mind and body are so tired. It truly seems as though one problem after another has occurred today. But I was able to keep going, thanks to Your loving help. I need to rest now and to forget how trying this day has been for me. Do please bless me with a good night's sleep and when morning comes, let me feel refreshed and renewed. I pray that You will answer my prayer by making tomorrow a much better day for me.. I love You... Goodnight, Dear Lord.

Prayers for YOUR day:)

     It is a beautiful, warm, sunny, Saturday:) Sitting outside in shorts and sleeves is comfortable even in the shade:) Thanks to God that I awoke this morning, thanks be to him that I get to live another day here on earth, thanks to him for giving me vision to see what I need to do to make a difference and thanks to him for allowing me to see the answer to prayers this week, healing is on the bodies of so many that we have prayed over, comfort has been in the words for many that we have lifted in prayer, and each day the circle is honored by at least one more person filled with his love, willing to join us in prayer. God is so good!!!!
     Today I pray that each of you has awaken with a fresh spirit, that you are not looking at the chores of the day with the blahs, but that you will take time to do what is most important in life, '"stop and smell the roses" spend quality time with those that you love, do something nice for you, make a call to someone you have not chatted with in a while, maybe come up with a special outing??? I pray that if you have suffered illness during the week that you are feeling better today, that if you have suffered loss this week that their spirit be in every step you take so that you know even though they are physically gone, they are still with you, I pray that if the weather permits, you get outside and marvel at the heavenly artwork that God created for the day, and I pray most of all that you feel the love that so many have for you, that you feel your worth and that your smile will be just what someone needs to lighten their load:) God bless you, each of you, with his love, mercy and grace.
    
    

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!
