Waiting...

My prayer:

Awesome God. I am going into a week of a lot of unknowns. I pray for your guidance, your protection, and your favor. Thank you God.

What God Said Tonight:

Waiting in the rain seems a lot longer than waiting in the sun. Your waiting is harder in poor circumstances. 

However, I am with you in the rain and the sun. I will prop you up through the wait. I will show you joy on the way. I will show you rainbows in the rain and sunbeams in the sun. 

I love you and I am with you always.

God with us...

My prayer:

Dear God. I hope and pray that I am always open to hear what you have to say, even when it is something I don't want to hear. Help me God to have ears that are always open to you. Help me to have a spirit that is always ready for you. Help me to have a heart that is always soft for you. 

I love you.

What God Said Tonight:

Every passion is a dream I have planted in you. Every joy is a gift. I am working in you and speaking to you in everything in your life. 

I have come to rescue you from evil. I have come to love you through it all. I have come because you are mine and I will never let you go. 

I am with you when you feel me and I am with you when you don't. I am with you when you praise me and I am with you when you doubt. 

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

Happiness...

My prayer:

What a great night God! THANK YOU! I would have missed it if you hadn't put everything together. To me, it seemed like too much hassle, but you made sure everything fell into place and I didn't have to think, just go. 

Huh, that sounds familiar. How many times have I said, 'I don't know how to do this', whatever this is at the time, and you have said, 'all I have to do is go, I will take care of the rest?' Too many times to count I am sure. 

You are pretty wonderful God!

What God Said Tonight:

What does it take to be happy? For some it is a smile. For some it is a million dollars. But as long as it takes things, any thing, to make you happy you will be living with less than what I want for you. 

One day, as you get to know me more and more, you will not need any thing to make you happy. You will have a light and a joy that is so deeply rooted within you that happiness is a natural byproduct,. 

You have it once in awhile now. It doesn't last for too long but it is there. Grow that light in you. Come to know me more and see the light grow. 

I love you and I want you to know all of me. 

The gift of problems...

My prayer:

Today felt like a constantly evolving problem that refused to be solved. Funny enough, the thing I was most worried about and praying for your help with, was completely fine. It was everything else that was a mess.

Thanks for bringing me through this day. Thanks for all of the solutions that I know you will bring. I love you Father!

What God Said Tonight:

Life, your life, was never intended to be problem free. As a matter of fact, I designed you especially to be able to see the problem and find the solution. It is what you do and a part of who you are. 

With no problems to solve, a part of your purpose goes unused. Try to see the problems as gifts to use your strength. They are the opportunities for you to lean on me and exercise the gifts I have given you. They are not meant to destroy you. They are meant to promote. you. 

Love you sweet daughter. Keep fighting the good fight.

Everything...

My prayer:

I am too tired to talk much tonight God. Maybe I can just listen?

What God Said Tonight:

Everything you need, now and forever. I am your provider and I know my job. 

You will have everything you need, now and forever,

Together...

My prayer:

Thank you for the courage that you give me God. I am grateful that I can walk through life with the confidence of you being behind me, for me, in everything I do and everywhere I go. 

Without you, I would be afraid to get out of bed in the morning. The world is so crazy. But with you, all things are possible.

What God Said Tonight:

A car and a driver are only meaningful when they work together, A driver without a car is just a man. A car without a driver might as well be a big paperweight. Together they have meaning and purpose. 

The same is true for you and the people I put in your life. You are more together than you are on your own. You have purpose together that you could not conceive of on your own. 

My angels surround you and they sing. Hear the heavens cry joy. 

Strength...

My prayer:

Awesome God. You are my everything. With you, all things are possible and all things are good. Thank you for your promise that you will always be with me and I will always be with you. 

What God Said Tonight:

Weakness is not a result of powerlessness. Weakness is not recognizing who you are and what privileges you have in me. 

A strong Christian is one who understands my grace and my mercy. In that, there is great healing. In that is great strength. 

I have given you power over darkness. I have given you forgiveness and healing. I have given you salvation from the wages of sin. I have given you all that you need. 

Your strength comes from recognizing what is already yours. I love you, now and forever.
