Reflect God's glory...

 

My prayer:

Awesome God. Thank you for all you have done this week. Your protection and guidance and favor has been amazing. I have one more day where I need to do the impossible, which I know from experience with you, it is possible. I pray for your help to get it all done. On my own, I could never do it. With you, truly all things are possible. I love you Lord, now and forever.

What God Said Tonight:

I am your ever present help. I will destine you to succeed, not for your sake but for the sake of those you serve and love. 

I will show them how I am the God of impossible situations. I will show them that I can make a way where there is no way. I will reflect my glory in you and they will see. 

Will and choice...

 

My prayer:

Awesome God. Thank you for your reminders today. You are very good to me Holy Spirit. My mind and my memory are really not very good but with you, I look like a genius. 

As we head on this journey tomorrow, I pray God that your will is done. I pray that your peace go with me, remain in me, emanate from me, and return with me. I pray that you help me to see every opportunity to love and reflect your love. I pray that your will is done God, in all things.

What God Said Tonight:

A reminder is just a reminder. It is your will that determines if you follow through or not. It is your will that decides if it will listen to me or not. I gave you choice for very specific reasons. 

I love you and I gave you that ability to choose to love me, or not. 

Remember to choose, each day and as you heard last night, each day for as long as today is today. 

I love you. I am with you. I will never leave you. You will go in my peace and blessing. It will not return void. 

What matters...

 

My prayer:

Awesome God. I do not feel like I did a very good job today. I let the stress get to me. I took it out on people who did not deserve it. I was not a very good reflection of your love.

Thank you for showing me what I was doing and giving me the opportunity to apologize. Thank you for knowing how imperfect I am and for covering me with your grace. Thank you for loving me anyway. 

What God Said Tonight:

I am still here. I am with you. I never left you. 

This life you are living is not about being perfect. It is not about many of the things you worry about. This life is about loving.Being loved and loving others. It is the one thing that truly does matter. 

I love you. Receive that love tonight. It will fuel you and fill you tomorrow to love those around you, better. 

Ashes...

 

My prayer:

Amazing savior. Thank you for a wonderful day. Thank you for the peace, the rest, the healing. I know I say it all the time but I am so grateful for you. I am grateful for the salvation that you bought for me, absolutely. But I am also so grateful for the blessing and peace that comes from living each day with you. You are my everything.

What God Said Tonight:

The sin of yesterday is forgiven and forgotten by me. However, sometimes it can leave ashes in your life. It can leave a residue that needs to be swept away. 

It doesn't have any power but it makes you think you are still dirty. You are not. You are clean and saved. But that residue can make you feel as though you are not. 

It may be time to do some house cleaning. Sweep out the ashes. Run a clean cloth over your life. Smell and see how clean you are now. See you as I see you. 

I love you now and forever my child.

Your intended life...

My prayer:

Amazing God. Thank you for all of your help this week. It has been pretty challenging but you have brought me through it all. I am SO GRATEFUL for you in my life. I could not do this without you.

What God Said Tonight:

You were never meant to do it alone. From the very beginning, I designed you to need me as I need you. It was always the plan that we would live life together. 

When you rely on me, lean on me, trust me, that is when you are truly living your intended life. That is why it feels so right and so easy when you are doing it. The challenge is, sin makes you think you don't need that or want it. Sin separates you from me and from even remembering that you need me. 

Receive my forgiveness and lean on me and find yourself in the life you were intended to live. 

I love you now and forever my child.

Give love...

 

My prayer:

Awesome God. You have given me so much. What can I do for you?

What God Said Tonight:

You give me your heart, your focus, your hope, and your trust. You give me your love. That is all I have ever asked for. 

Love me and love each other. Give me that and it is all I need. 

I love you sweet child, now and forever. Rest in that love.

Being whole...

 

My prayer:

Thank you for today God. Your blessings continue to leave me in awe. Thank you for conquering every challenge in my way today. Thank you for your generosity. It gives me the room to bless others and be blessed all at the same time. Thank you for the life you have given me here. I know heaven is better, but it is hard to imagine much better than this. YOU ARE SO INCREDIBLE!!!

What God Said Tonight:

Building on a strong foundation is always worth the time and effort. Building something temporary is rarely worth the time and effort. 

Build a life with me, on my strong foundation, and you will be grateful you did. You will know at the end of each day that today was worth it. Build your life elsewhere and you will not get that same joy. 

I don't say this to scare anyone. I am only telling you the truth of life. You were created to be in relationship with me and outside of that, you will never be whole. I created you in our image and without us, you are not whole. 

I love you, I love all of my children and I ache for them all to come back to me.  Let me make you whole.
