God is available...

My prayer:

I just noticed God that we have been talking like this and posting it on line for seven years. That is pretty incredible! I still remember the first night that you led me to do this. I was so nervous. What if no body saw it or cared? What if everybody saw it? I knew I heard from you but I could not imagine why you wanted me to do it.

Now seven years later I have seen you touch hundreds of thousands of people with your words. What a privilege and an honor! 

Thank you for trusting me with this God. Thank you for talking to me always. Your voice in my ear is the sweetest sound I know. 

What God Said Tonight:

Some people don't know. They don't realize that my voice is available to them. My voice, my Holy Spirit, my Son stand in anxious anticipation...

To do list...

My prayer:

Sweet Father, you know the question on my heart tonight. You know the struggle. Help me to see the next step. Help me to see the path. Help me to know what I should do, decide, change. Thank you Jesus.

What God Said Tonight:

When did you decide that your past determines your future. When do you think you stopped following my lead? 

I know your heart. I know your dreams. I know your needs and I will take care of each one. 

You have seen some possibilities but you have not seen all that I have to show you. When the time is right, when the option is right, you will have no doubt. Moving into it will be effortless. 

Keep seeking me. Worry less about what you need to decide or do and take that same energy to stay focused on me. I will show you the way. Nothing needs to change until I change it. Nothing for you to do but to seek my face, keep an ear open to my voice and a heart free to be shaped for my purpose. 

I love you and my plans for you are not complete.

All things...

My prayer:

Thank you for the luxury of rest today God. It is back to work tomorrow. I will need your help making that transition. I pray for wisdom, patience, favor and that general amazing help that you provide.

You are so good to me. I am so grateful for you. Help me to be whatever you need me to be or want me to be tomorrow. 

What God Said Tonight:

I provide for all of your needs out of my riches in glory. I provide for all of your needs. 

As Father, I take care of you. As Savior, I save you. As Healer, I heal you. As teacher, I teach you. As Friend, I comfort you. As God, I create you. 

I am all things to you and for you. My provision never runs out. I am everlasting and all of my gifts for you are out of who I am, therefore, they will never run out. 

I love you, now and forever. You are mine and I am yours, forever.

Imperfect...

My prayer:

Thank you God for being better to me than I am to you. Thank you for thinking of me, loving me, caring for me even when I don't do the same to you. Thank you for forgiving me when I am thoughtless and rebellious. Thank you for loving me when I am at my most unlovable. 

Thank you for being so gracious to accept my meager attempts at worship. Thank you for receiving my love, as imperfect as it is. 

Thank you.

What God Said Tonight:

I never need you to be perfect or even close. I always just need you to be committed to sticking it out with me. 

I will never leave you and as long as you never leave me, all will workout ok in the end. 

I love you now and forever. 

Bruised heart...

My prayer:

I did not do a great job of appreciating this day God. It is hard to come back to everyday life after a week of such great adventure. But, I will do my best to find the joy and adventure in everyday life. I will do my best to maintain an attitude of gratitude. I know it is better for me and it is the least of what you deserve.

I love you God. Thank you for being you.

What God Said Tonight:

Here is the thing though. Everyday life is nothing more than what you make it. I have great opportunities for adventure constantly in front of you. You only need to reach out and grab them. The enemy of joy and adventure is habit.

The enemy of your heart is satan. He beat up your heart. He tried to steal from you. He failed, but the bruise remains. The week of adventure gave time for the bruise to heal but it is not entirely gone. Your feelings today were not just being back home. They were the tender edges of the bruise healing over.

Give yourself the same room and consideration that you give others in grief. I will heal this wound.

Color...

My prayer:

The last night of a week of wonderful experiences. Thank you again God for being so amazing and allowing me this time of healing and rebuilding. I can't wait to see what is next. Thank you for your protection today. Those were some crazy roads we were on! I love you and I am ready for whatever you have next as long as we are in it together.

What God Said Tonight:

This week was to add color to your life. You needed a reminder that there is more to the world than what is in front of your face. 

Thank you for embracing the experience and trusting me through it all. 

I do have plans (you know I always do) and we will see tomorrow together. I love you.

Getting peace...

My prayer:

Awesome God, I am so grateful and so at peace. Your peace with your love is the most beautiful think in the world. 

I pray your peace envelop all of your kids. I pray your peace envelop all of my friends. I pray that your peace reign on this earth. Thank you Jesus.

What God Said Tonight:

My peace I bring to you and my peace, I give to you. Now and always. I am the peace maker. I am the Prince of Peace. I bring peace wherever I am. 

When you need more peace, get more fully into my presence. You will always find it there. When you want peace in a situation, invite me into it. When you need peace for someone else, let them see me. 

I love you.
