#Tuesday #prayer


1 Samuel 1: 11
“And she vowed a vow and said,
“O LORD of hosts, if you will
indeed look on the affliction of
your servant and remember me
and not forget your servant,
but will give to your servant a son,
then I will give him to the
LORD all the days of his life,
and no razor shall touch his head.”

Praying should be part of our Christian walk each and every day.  We see Hannah praying asking God to bless her life with a son.  Her earnest prayer is answered and she does bear a child.

It is no secret I have been really praying for my attitude and the way I view people.  The people that disappointed me is now in the past and I am moving forward.

My prayer today is asking the LORD of hosts if there is anything He wants to say to me.  I want to know if there is anything I need to know that I’m not thinking about. 

I am also praying that the LORD of hosts will open my eyes so that I may see the wonderful truth in the LORD of host’s law. (Psalm 119: 18)

I believe you also need to pray about the things in your own life as well as your family and friends.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, LORD of hosts, I want to humbly pray and ask You is there anything You want to say to me.  LORD of hosts, is there anything I need to know that I’m not thinking about.  Because I feel that I cannot do anything without Your hand of protection and guidance in my own life, I am asking You today.  LORD hears my call, open my eyes and let me see what You want me to see. 

You know my heart LORD and I come humbly before YOU today and thank YOU for Your loving-kindness and generosity towards someone like me in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.  Amen

#never #destroyed

https://goo.gl/xK6bTg 2 Corinthians 4: 8-9AMP “We are pressured in every way [hedged in], but not crushed; perplexed [unsure of finding a way out], but not driven to despair; hunted down and persecuted, but not deserted [to stand alone]; struck down, but never destroyed;” I realized that my emotions are something that can cause me to feel pressure and hedged in. My circumstances seem impossible and I feel that there is no way I am going to make it. Then it’s time to check what is going on in your personal life.  Are you getting enough sleep? Are you eating properly? Do you take a break from time to time? If I don’t get enough sleep it seems despair is knocking at my door, and I feel miserable. I just cannot move forward, I want to curl up and died. Just because I am tired and there seems to be no way out. Emotions have a way of controlling each one of us. I realized that I will never be destroyed because there is a way forward.  God gave me common sense an...

You are a Blessing to me!

Working in a multiracial office is always interesting, and my story today is one about sharing and looking out for each other.    Our cleaning lady doesn’t earn much and I doubt even if they are paying her ‘mini mum wages’.   Nevertheless the people in our office know this and worry about her.    One of the young ladies decided to give her a newspaper with all the latest add in it.   As she paged through the paper she sat next to her and asked her ‘what do you like’.    Looking at the stuff on the page she pick out a couple of things that seemed impossible to own and said to this young girl.   I like this and I would love to have one of these. Without her knowledge the Human Resource division made a collection and they then assigned the task to the young lady to buy the things Judy wanted. We gave her, her gifts today.   I was amazed at her gratefulness, tears of joy running down her face and all she could say was “T...

The View from the Sycamore Tree

"Ill-gotten treasures have no lasting value, but righteousness delivers from death. The Lord does not let the righteous go hungry, but he thwarts the craving of the wicked. Lazy hands make for poverty, but diligent hands bring wealth." Proverbs 10:2–10 Reflection The Turning Point: I used to think that by this stage of my life. The path was already set in stone. I looked at the mirror and saw the silver hair and the lines of age. I felt as though I was simply watching the clock run out on my dreams. I’ve spent years in the "midlife crisis." Wrestling with the ghosts of regrets, careers that didn't flourish, relationships that felt the strain of time. The nagging fear of being "less than" in a world that prises youth and worldly success. But then I saw Zacchaeus. He was a man who had spent his life traveling in the wrong direction. Chasing "ill-gotten treasures" that left his soul hungry. When he climbed that tree, he wasn't just trying t...
