Love One Another

1 John 2:9 says, “whoever says that he’s in the light and hates his brother, he is still living in darkeness.” Dear Lord I don’t want to live in darkness because You are The Light of the world, and I don’t want to be where You are not. Help me, through Your Holy Spirit, to love and to heal old broken relationships through Your love. Thank You for Your Word that reminds me of what is earthly and what is heavenly.

Family Prayer

Thank You Lord for my family. I would like to pray for my family. They have been going through a tough time and trust that You have them in Your hands Lord and that You will take care of them. Thank You for our health and for each other. I pray for peace and encouragement.

I am thankful for someone who loves me and cares for me. Jesus sent me the best man I could have asked for. Hs family is just as great. I am thankful that I have been blessed with a wondeful soon to be husband and new family!

God’s Direction

Thank You Lord for the opportunities you provide for us in life. You constantly open and close doors for us in order to guide is in the right direction. I pray that You use me for Your purpose Lord. Guide me in the right direction so that I can be a faithful servant for You and Your Kingdom.

Thankful I am Saved

I just had a conversation with two men who do not believe. Just listening to them talk made me thankful to God that I know Him and that Jesus is my Savior. These guys are in the dark. I felt sorry for them. They have not yet seen Jesus as the light. I am praying for them. God wants everybody to be saved. I am thankful that I am.

Take the time to give thanks to the Lord for He is worthy to be paraised all the time. Dont be lazy, bless somone with your testimony of praise and thanksgiving. I am thankful to my Lord for creating me and blessing me with those around me, and the opportunities He sends my way to bless others.

Happy Birthday Honey

I am thankful today for my wife on her birthday. She has been unwavering for thirty-seven years. I pray my sons will have Godly wives who will not waver in all the coming years. Thank you Lord for Sue. Happy Birthday.

Must Be Born Again….

Supposedly, tomorrow is my birthday. I say that because the actual date was a mix-up between this date and the one that my mother’s midwife had me registered were two different ones, but the family says they are absolutely sure that it was the 24th of April, even the year was wrong, let’s not get into THAT. It used to bother me somewhat, but when Jesus came into my life and this time I felt what it was to be born again, to feel His total acceptance and grace in every ounce of my being, to be engulfed in His everlasting arms, to feel a kind of love and joy I never experienced before. To me this was when I was actually born, I could honestly say that I could care less about my physical birth time, it is being born from above is what matters to me. So true when Jesus said “You have to be born again, not of the flesh but of the Spirit.” It is not a choice but a must. Thank you Jesus for loving and accepting me, just as I am.

God’s Own Timing

Just because the situation is not perfect in our own eyes does not mean that God is not doing things in His own timing. As helpless and bleak as things may appear, God is behind the scene providing help in time of need. Thank you Lord for always blessing us with so much, yet we forget that it is You who is behind the scene.

God answering my prayer!

I’ve been praying about a family situation that I wasn’t sure how the outcome would go…and yesterday God blessed me with taking care of all the details and allowing some mending to begin! Broken as it is, thank you God for always showing up in my family and giving me hope!
