Tomorrow...

 

My prayer:

Awesome God. Thank you for bringing me through the multiple challenge today. I realize in hindsight that it was so exhausting because I was wrapped up in the tasks of it all and not focusing on the people. You have told me so many times that my job is to love the people you have put in my life and you will do the rest. I did not do a very good job of that today. I will try to do a better job tomorrow.

What God Said Tonight:

Today was not a typical day. Today was not a day that you should see as a foreshadowing of days to come. Today was one day where a lot happened but now it is done. 

Tomorrow is a day where I can show my glory. Tomorrow is a day where I can remind you of how I work all things for your good. Tomorrow is a day where you will shout my glory from the mountain top and the world will hear. 

I love you now and forever my child. Look to tomorrow with me.

A beach and change...

 

My prayer:

Thank you for all that you have done this week Lord. You made the impossible things possible. Through it all you protected and blessed me. I feel so fortunate, so blessed but I know it has nothing to do with me and everything to do with who you are.

Thank you for being amazing. Thank you for being love. Thank you for choosing me.

What God Said Tonight:

A beach is many things at the same time. It is rock and sand. It is water. It is plants and animals. And then, if the circumstances change, the beach changes, sometimes significantly. Sand hit by lightning becomes glass. A storm turns water into a destructive battering ram. And even in the calmest of conditions, the rocks are slowly turning to sand. Plants are growing. Animals are living, changing, dying. 

Your life is similar. It is made up of so many components and those components are constantly changing. Sometimes the change is dramatic and sometimes subtle. 

I created life for change. It is not something to fear or avoid. A life that is unchanged is not possible. I do not change. Everything else does. Hold to my constant to weather your changes. I will see you through each one and I will bless you in it all. 

I love you my child, now and forever. That does not change.

Trust and love...

 

My prayer:

Amazing God. Thank you for today. I pray for all of the challenges that are beyond my abilities, which are most of them. I pray for your help, your direction, your intervention. With you, all things really are possible.

What God Said Tonight:

Every path has its own challenges. Sometimes the challenge is the path itself. Sometimes, all you need to do is to trust me and keep one foot in front of the other. 

Not all paths make sense in the moment but I will never lead you somewhere that you should not go. I have a purpose in this, as I do with all things in your life. 

Trust and love, I will take care of the rest. I love you sweet daughter, now and forever.

Not lost...

 

My prayer:

Awesome Father. Thank you for all of the beauty in this day. You bless me so much. I am so grateful to all that you do in my life each day. My thanks feel so inadequate in the face of all that you do. You deserve all the glory and honor and praise.

I pray for my friend tonight God. I don't know where she is. She seems to be missing and there is nothing I can do except ask for your help. Please keep her safe and bring her home.

What God Said Tonight:

All is not lost and all is not as it seems. 

I am your God and I hear your prayers. I will see you through this and every day with grace, mercy, peace, and joy. I love you sweet daughter and you can rest in my assurance. You can rest in my love. 

Youth and age...

 

My prayer:

Awesome God. Thank you for today and for providing options that were not there before. I freely give you my life and pray that your will is done. 

What God Said Tonight:

Things become aged and worn and generally, that is considered a bad thing. But the truth is that age brings a flexibility and assurance that cannot be found in youth. 

The young have energy and hope. The young have new ideas and the brash confidence to try them out. 

The older leaders have wisdom, calm assurance, and a comfort from knowing that they are not, nor do they have to be right all the time. 

You may wonder why I am telling you this tonight. I see conflict among the ages, among the generations today. This strife and conflict does not need to be there. There is so much gained from seeing the benefits we each have. 

I have a purpose and place for everyone, no matter their age. No matter their experience. It takes everyone, every last one, to make up my kingdom. 

Do not doubt your worth, in this and in every stage of your life.

Cannot be stolen...

 

My prayer:

Amazing Father. Thank you for the new opportunities today. I pray that you continue to guide and direct me and my words. Help me to love well. Help me to see the way through the challenge. Help me to help those around me. 

What God Said Tonight:

Each day and each opportunity is there for a purpose and is incorporated into my plan for you. No thing will keep you from the promises I have for you. 

An enemy will try but will fail. The world will try to take it but will lose. My blessing are for you, my child, my children. They cannot be stolen. They will reach their intended. 

I love you my child, now and forever. 

Positioned to receive...

My prayer:

You made the impossible possible again today God. Thank you! Thank you for speaking when I did not have the words. Thank you for favor, in a situation where I could not expect favor. Thank you for making a way out of the unexpected challenge, when I did not see a way out. Thank you for hearing my prayer.  

What God Said Tonight:

You asked for help. I am your good Father. I will always help when you ask. It is simple but true. 

I love you and it is always my desire to help you. But often, I do need you to reach out for that help. 

It is in your reaching that allows me to give and for you to receive. If I give, but you are not ready to receive, it is a wasted gift. Sometimes I do it anyway, I can't help myself. But usually, I need you to ask and position yourself to receive what I have to give to you. 

It is not complicated but it is so often missed.

I love you now and forever my child.
