Waiting...

My prayer:

My mind is blank God. I guess that is better than stressed and worried? What is on your mind tonight?

What God Said Tonight:

Wait. It is not a bad word. Most people think that waiting is some kind of punishment. 

While you are waiting, your ability to perceive reality is twisted. The waiting can create anxiety and anger in you. The waiting can also create strength and faith. 

Waiting is never intended as a punishment. It is always about finding the right and best time for whatever it is you are waiting for. I am pretty good with timing. I know when particular event will have the most positive impact. 

Wait on me so I can give you the life that I have intended for you. Wait on me.

The time has come...

My prayer:

Awesome God. I pray, as we head into this week, that you show me opportunities to be a blessing. I pray that you show me opportunities to live out your purpose here on earth. I pray for meaning, love, joy, and peace everywhere I go.

What God Said Tonight:

The simpleness of your heart is a joy to mine. A great deal more is in your future. I have such joy that you cannot contain I have such blessing that it overflows. I have more than you need and more than you can imagine and I will see you blessed,  I will see you blessed. 

The time is come when the fear shall run. The joy shall fill the heavens. I see your love and it won't be long, We will ride the wind together.

True love...

My prayer:

I love seeing your kids loving on each other God. We are not very good at it and sometimes we forget to do it at all but other times, we get it right and I get to see somebody just love on a brother or sister for no reason, just because they are there. 

Please keep teaching us how to do this better.

What God Said Tonight:

Teaching you to love better is not actually what you need. The barriers to love in your life are more complicated than you realize. 

You know how to love. The challenge is to react in love. Given time, it will be as natural as breathing. Right now, it feels strange because you have been shown twisted versions of love. 

True love, my love will never die. no matter what you do to it.

Wisp of smoke...

My prayer:

I am grateful. I am at peace. I am content. Thank you Jesus.

What God Said Tonight:

Would you have wanted the past to have been different if it meant forfeiting the future I have planned for you? 

Please understand that every season, every struggle, every blessing and every  joy, is all part of the fabric that builds your life and your future. When you are in the hard season, remember I have a purpose. When you are in the easy season, remember I am God. 

We have so much more time together and so much more to do together. This life that you have lived so far is nothing more than a wisp of smoke in the wind. There is so much more. I love you now and forever. 

God provides...

My prayer:

Today was full of surprises. I can't even say if they were good or bad surprises but I sit here tonight with my head spinning and filled with thoughts that are rushing by. This life is so uncertain sometimes. We truly are not promised tomorrow. 

Awesome God. You are my rock and my strong tower that I can hang onto in any storm and in this ever changing world. Thank you for being the one thing that never changes. Thank you for always being there for me. 

What God Said Tonight:

Your words and the smoke in the mirror will actually be what saves you. I have a standard principle that I will provide for you. I will not neglect it. 

I am yours and you are mine, forever. 

Spring of life...

My prayer:

Thank you for answered prayers today God. You are extending the life of a very good man and I am grateful.

What God Said Tonight:

There is the season of planting, the season of growing, the season of harvest and the season of rest. Each season happens in its own time. Your season is changing now. 

The grass of yesterday has turned into the bailed hay of today. Your tomorrow is of rest and preparation for the new Spring. 

I love you and will see you in the Spring of life. 

All miracles...

My prayer:

Surviving today was a testament of you in my life. There is no natural way I could have survived but you brought me through. I am greater, stronger, more capable, and more successful because you are in my life. Thank you!

What God Said Tonight:

Not every miracle comes with a flash, bang, and celebration. Sometimes the miracles are barely noticeable. They are so small that you think they did not really matter but without them, your life would be over. 

I love providing you miracles great and small because I see how they strengthen you and your faith. Take time to recognize them all no matter how big or how small. I love you.
