Lines...

My prayer:

Awesome God. I feel like I started the day with an energy level of 0.1 on a scale of 1 to 10 and I am ending it at a -7. Can't believe I am still concious. Thank you for all of your help today. Would love to hear your voice before I collapse into bed.

What God Said Tonight:

There are lines you don't cross because they are dangerous for you. Keep an eye out for those lines. 

There are other lines that you create in your own mind as being dangerous. Those are the ones that can limit you to less than your full life. Those are the lines that can trap you in a life that is less than what I have for you. 

It is important to learn the difference. One set of lines is for your good and the other is for your detriment. I love you and if you ask me, I will teach you the difference.

My peace...

My prayer:

Sweet Father. I have so many thoughts racing through my head tonight I can't even seem to slow them down long enough to talk about them. It would probably be better to try to quiet my mind and listen to you. When my mind is going crazy, you are my peace. When my life is crazy you are my peace. 

What God Said Tonight:

A quiet mind is a rare find sometimes. 

I will be your peace and your refuge. When nothing else seems stable, I will be your rock. When nothing else makes sense, I will be your logic. When nothing else seems to matter, I will be your purpose. 

I love you sweet daughter. I will be your everything.

A rest day...

My prayer:

Ahh, thank you God for a nice, normal day! No drama, no major...anything. I know that I get bored if I get too many normal days in a row but it has been so long, it was nice to have this one!

God I pray for your strength and favor in facing the challenges for tomorrow. I especially need your help at work tomorrow. Thank you for always being on my side. 

Most of our talks have been focused on me lately and not focused enough on how great you are. Forgive me for getting self centered God. I think I could benefit from a change in position to more God centered. 

I love you and I am in awe of all that you do. Your power, your love, your healing, your youness are all beyond amazing. Thank you for being in my life. 

What God Said Tonight:

A plan, a good plan, a plan that will withstand time, allows for action and for rest. I set the precedent when I created this world. I worked for six days and on the seventh, I rested. 

I will provide you rest when you are walking in the will I have for your life. I will have you work, because I love you and I want to help you. But, I will provide you rest. 

Don't miss those moments and times of rest. They are essential to moving forward. They are as important as taking action. There is no shame in rest. It is an integral part of the plan.

Digging deep...

My prayer:

I was clearly at my least lovable today God. Thank you for putting up with me, bad attitude and all. Thank you for keeping me from blowing up at anyone. I am not sure what was happening today but getting ahold of the rage was not easy. 

Thank you for wrapping me in your peace tonight and helping me to leave this day in the past!

What God Said Tonight:

I have begun a work in you. Remember that I said we would have to dig deep and you would have to trust me. That is all true. 

We will be digging up emotions that are not comfortable but necessary. We will be exploring depths that you have not seen. 

I am with you. I will not leave you. I will work it all to your good. Trust me to always be on your side.

Let God...

My prayer:

Awesome God. I pray tonight about that thing. You know the thing I can't get out of my head. The thing I can't stop thinking about even though I know it does no good to think about it. The thing that I never should have started thinking about in the first place. The thing I have been asking for help with daily for a long time now. 

I don't even know how to pray about it anymore except to try and give it back to you, again. So, I give back to you, again. I ask for your help, again. Thank you for not getting fed up with me.

What God Said Tonight:

The thing is not your problem The thing is a symptom of your problem. I can take care of the thing but it will be replaced by a new thing if we don't get to the real issue, the real hurt. 

I want to heal you from the inside out, if you will let me. I want to see you whole, if you will let me. I want to get to the root of the issue if you will let me. 

It will take courage and trust. Will you let me?

Stuck...

My prayer:

Awesome God. Show me where I am stuck in my thinking. Show me where I am stuck thinking things have to be a certain way when the truth is you have a better way. It is so easy to see in others and so hard to see in myself. Help me to see where I am holding myself back. Thank you Jesus.

What God Said Tonight:

I have. It is all of those areas that you don't want to talk about. Those things that you don't want to hear other people's opinions about. Those things that you avoid in conversation. 

If someone brings up a topic and you do everything you can to get out of the conversation because it is so uncomfortable, those are the things where you are not seeing the full picture. Those are the areas you are blind in. 

Be sensitive to that reaction and you can start to pinpoint those areas where you are stuck. Then, I can get you unstuck.

Eyes opened...

My prayer:

Mighty and wonderful God. 

You do so much for us and we so often don't see it or forget it. If we could somehow clearly see every miracle you have done in our lives and remember each one, imagine how we could trust. Imagine the confidence we would have in you. 

God, I pray that you open my eyes to see all that you do for me and those around me. God I pray that you strengthen my memory so I never forget a single thing you have done. Thank you Jesus!

What God Said Tonight:

I have opened your eyes enough so that you know that you have been blind. 

Someone who has always been blind, does not know they are blind. They don't know what it is to see. I have given you the awareness, I have given you the desire to see. I will open your eyes and make you whole. I will show you all of the things that have been hidden. 

I have no desire for you to live in the dark. I am the light and I will shine my light on the truth for you. I love you child.
