GOD CARRIES YOU THROUGH

God Carries You Through

How will You “wow” me today, Lord?
I feel that I am at the bottom of the barrel and there is no way out.
I have You and You alone to carry me through life.
Help me, I cry!   Forgive me, I cry!
Show me the way, I cry!  Love me, I cry!  Guide me, I cry!

May I learn what You want me to learn so I can move on to the next level in life.
Why do I feel beaten down on all sides?
I have helped others.
I have tried hard to love the unlovely.
But today I will put the enemy (Satan) under my feet.

This will be a wonderful day because You, Lord are holding my hand and guiding me through it.
Thank You for life, for my family, and for all that You will show me today.
Thank You for Jesus and the Holy Spirit.
Thank You, thank You, thank You.
I love You, Lord and because of You I will be victorious.

WANT IT!

Want It!

Why are we so afraid to live?
Why is life so difficult?
Why do things get dirty?
I love to take a hot bath when everything is in order.
When baseboards are dusty and windowsills are full of pollen, I cannot relax.
I try but there is a sense of unrest.
I love order but I never seem to have it.
What am I doing wrong?
I love life.
Why is there never time to stay ahead of the dirt?

Why does sin creep into our lives?
When we walk with God and sin comes in, we loose that inner peace that passes all understanding.
We immediately know it.
We stop and talk to God, asking forgiveness, so our inner peace will be restored.
Does someone with head knowledge of God understand why their peace is gone?
Did they really feel it?
We all know people who live in turmoil all the time.
Do they really know God?
 Do they know where their true peace and joy comes from?
We know the answer and it makes us sad.

Oh, how I pray I could make the world feel what I feel.
The only way we can do this is to love one unlovely person at a time.
May Jesus’ love that I have in me rub off on them so they will want the love of Jesus.
Only Jesus can wash us white as snow.
Only Jesus was the perfect sacrifice.
Only Jesus died a gruesome death for the sin of the world.
The world is afraid of being in bondage if they love Jesus.
The world is on a collision course with Satan.
In the end to follow Satan you will be no more.
Every tear will be wiped away by Jesus as the lost are forgotten.
Only God’s children who know the peace, joy and love of God will remain.
Eternal Life!

TOSSING AND TURNING

Tossing and Turning

“Unto you first God, having raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities.”
Acts 3:25-26

Why do you toss and turn in the middle of the night?
The house is so still and there is no reason for this unrest.
Is someone in need of prayer?
Have you neglected your quiet time with God?
Do you lie there tossing and turning or do you get up and seek God?
He will be waiting to commune with you about a love one, a need in your life, or simply to let you know how much he loves you.
For one year, God woke me up at 1:34 a.m.
At first I did not know why I would wake up and see the same time on the alarm clock every night.
I finally realized that God was waking me up at this time for a reason.
Why God have you disturbed my night’s rest?
I had a friend that had cancer and she would come to my mind.
I realized that God wanted me to be faithful to Him praying for her healing.
By the grace of God, to this day, she is cancer free.
Our days are full of noise.
The night is still where we can hear God.
Next time you toss and turn, get up and seek God.
He will show you something He wants you to do, teach you something He wants you to know, or sit in the stillness of your home feeling His presence and His love in your life.
What an awesome God we have who gets our attention by making us toss and turn.
After obeying and communing with Him, go back to bed to receive the best sound, deep sleep that your body needs.
Perfect sleep.

INNER PEACE

Inner Peace

The cool gentle breeze brushes my face like the tender touch of a mother.
The heron glides onto the lake waiting patiently for its prey.
The earth is so still and quiet as it waits reverently for Your arrival to planet earth.
The birds are chirping happy songs.
A single fish disturbs the stillness of the water.
The day’s tasks are locked away and removed from my mind as I await Your visit Lord.

What will we talk about today?
Where will You guide my feet?
In my heart, I know how much You love me.
Your presence is so peaceful and serene.
Your Words lift me up.
 When I am low, You surround me with Your love.

You restore peace to my soul.
You make the enemy flee.
I know I will see Your goodness Lord in the land of the living.
I know You will walk beside me holding my hand; but when I feel I cannot go on,
 You carry me.
You are wonderful.
When I stop to hear Your voice, You restore an inner peace that passes all understanding.

I love this peace.
 Thank you for restoring it.
I pray for everyone to have this peace.
This peace brings unity, love and renewal.
Joy and love is part of this peace.
Inner peace lets me know You are God!

I KNOW YOU HEAR ME LORD

I KNOW YOU HEAR ME LORD!

Hear our cry today, Oh Lord.
Come quickly to our aid.
You do not watch from afar.
For we need Your peace.
Teach us to stand firm on Your Word.
Do not let the enemy overtake us.
You hold our hand.
Do not let the wall crash around us.
You protect all that we love.
Guide our steps down Your narrow path.
Give us victory, Oh Lord, give us victory.
Thank you for Your calm and the springs of living water in us.
You are our Creator, our Rock, our Shield.
You alone love us like no other.
How precious we are to You, Oh Lord.
We are more precious than a rare jewel that sparkles and glistens in the warm sunshine.
Mold us in Your Image.
You prepare us for battle.
Give us Your peace that is like no other.
I pray for victory because of You.
Guide our steps and keep us from falling.
I pray that all would be well in our home.
It would be a house of prayer.
May we unite so the milk and honey will not run out.
I pray that all fear will be gone because You are our Rock, our Provider, our Creator, the Great I Am.
Dear Lord, teach us to lay at Your feet in the calm of Your love.
