The History: A couple of years ago, I started journaling my prayers and God's responses to them. I told my friends about this, they were really interested. I told my Pastor about it and he said, how about sharing those on line. When I asked God, He said, my words are for you, but not just for you. And, here we are...I hope He speaks to you in these words.

Always...


My prayer:

My Father, my savior, my God. I say "I love you" to you all the time and maybe so much that it loses its impact or meaning. Can I take just a minute tonight to really focus on how I love you? 

There are so many things that I love about you that it is difficult to count them all. One of the big ones is your constant faithfulness. I love that I can ALWAYS count on you. That you will ALWAYS love me. That you are ALWAYS there for me. And you ALWAYS will be. You are the God of ALWAYS and I LOVE that!

In this life where there are not a lot of things I can count on, I love that I can always count on you!

What God Said Tonight:

I don't know how to be less than always. I was there in the beginning and I will be there past the end. I am the alpha and the omega, the beginning in the end. I always was and always will be. It is who I am. You can count on it because it is my nature. 

I will never let you go, my love, my child. I will see you through eternity. Go and rest for tomorrow has some new challenges and surprises for you.

Freedom...

My prayer:

More snow, more cold, more trapped. God, I know I am being melodramatic but it is how I feel. I have this overwhelming desire to just go, somewhere, anywhere but GO. It's all part of the same thing we talked about last night. And, I did listen. I understand there is a purpose in this and that I am prepared for the next season. What do I do right now? How do I keep from flying out of my skin?  

Listen to me. There are so many worse things happening in this world. So many greater needs. I probably just need to get my focus off of me. I am kind of sick of me right now. 

Thank you God for your patience, love, kindness, grace and mercy. I need every bit that you can give me.

What God Said Tonight:

How can you be trapped when you are free in me? Your prison is in your imagination. It is not real. 

You are the child of the most high God and here are no limits on what you can do in my power. There are no limits on where you can go in my power. There is only freedom, joy and peace. 

I am in you and you are in me and together we can do all things. It is true and I am about to show you how true it is. 

Remember, always, your freedom is in me. It is the only true freedom that there is. All other freedom is as much an illusion as our imagined jail. I love you. Be free with me.

Uncomfortable...

My prayer:

Awesome God. I am uncomfortable. Physically, emotionally, spiritually uncomfortable. Now, usually that means that change is right around the corner which is good. I am ready for change that relieves this pressure. I feel like everything is just kind of boiling under the surface ready to boil over but not quite busting out yet. 

I ask God that your perfect will be done in my life in your perfect timing. I ask that in this "almost" time, you give me the peace to make it through.

Thank you Jesus!

What God Said Tonight:

I have you prepared, placed, and primed for the next season. That is what you feel. Just like you sometimes can feel that this world is not your final destination and you want to move on to the eternal life with me, sometimes you become aware that you have been made for, prepared for, something more that is not quite here yet. But, I promise it is on it's way. 

I had to prepare you ahead of time because when the time is here, it will all happen so fast you will need to be all ready, ready. 

Have peace in the knowledge that everything is for a reason. The preparation, the waiting, the feeling is all for a reason and it will bear fruit, it will matter. I love you child. Go and rest for tomorrow has its own challenges.

Connected...

My prayer:

I would much rather listen than talk tonight God. What is on your mind? LOVE YOU!

What God Said Tonight:

I have a few things to share tonight. I thank you for taking time to listen. I can sometimes get lost in the noise of life. Your life is so full of noise. So many voices that compete for your attention. I am grateful for times when you consciously quiet the noise just to listen. 

I have a plan I am working on right now. A plan for you life that is good. A plan for your group, your circle, that is good. A plan for the world that is good. All of these plans are intertwined. What I want to do in your life is connected to what I want to do in your circles, which is connected to what I want to do in the world. 

I wish you could see how connected everything and everyone is in the world. Even across time. It is all connected. You are all connected. There is no action or inaction that does not effect, eventually, the whole world. I know you have heard the saying about the butterfly in Japan flapping it's wings and there is more truth to that saying than you know. 

It is that inter-relatedness that makes your everyday life so important. It is that interdependence that makes every decision you make matter. So often you are told how insignificant you are in the grander scheme of things but I am here to tell you that you are significant. You are the child of he most High God and your role in this world, throughout eternity, matters. 

I love you and you are right where I need you to be for the plans that I have made.

Roots and fruit...

My prayer:

Thank you God for a wonderful day. Thank you for getting me to work and home safely on the snowy roads. Thank you for a day at work where I got to do the stuff I love. Thank you for the good news about the future. Thank you for divine health. Thank you for a warm house to sleep in. Thank you for peace, joy, and grace. Thank you most of all for being you and for loving me!

What God Said Tonight:

The fruit of any life, of any situation, of any decision will show the root from where it came. That is true of trees and it is true of people. When I look at your life, I can see your root, your motivations from what you are producing. 

You know that when your life is full with blessings and joy, love and peace, you know that your root, your intention, is to bless, love, bring joy and peace. When your life is full of deceit and discouragement, you know that your root, your motivation, is to bring lies and discouragement. Change the root and you will change your fruit. 

Know that either way, I still love you. Know that out of that love, I will help you if you ask. 

Your fruit is not important in itself but it is very helpful to know the root. Root yourself in me and you will always have good fruit. I am the root of all good. satan is the root of all evil. Root yourself in good.

Different lives...

My prayer:

Awesome God. You know that I love and appreciate the life you have given me. But sometimes, I wonder what if I made different choices. What if I took some different paths. Would I be happier if I had gone ahead and made some more traditional choices? 

I have always been proud of making my own way in life and making choices that seemed best at the time, not necessarily what people expected of me. But sometimes I wonder if I missed out on some things. 

Most of the time the knowledge that I only have one life to live is a relief. I mean this one is tough enough! I don't want to have to go through it more than once. But then sometimes I wonder what it would be like to live out different choices and different lives. I am sure that there are positives and negatives to everyone's life. I don't know, just wondering.

What God Said Tonight:

I have given you but one life to live and you should live it to the best of your ability, making the best choices you know how to make. What I also expect and plan for you to do is to be in relationship with other people to know and discover what other paths, other decisions might be like. 

Sometimes those relationships will help you to make different decisions and sometimes they will show you that you don't ever need to make a decision that results in that life. But they are always going to help you and show you different ways to live. 

Relationships allow you to experience life from many different viewpoints. Remember to learn what life looks like through your friends eyes and you will experience more of what life has to give you. Love you daughter.

God's work...

My prayer:

Well, today didn't quite turn out the way I thought it was going to. Definitely had some bumps in the road (literally and figuratively). But, I feel like such a whiny wimp when I even think about complaining about anything in my life. 

Truth is, my life is pretty amazing and wonderful. Especially when I look at what other people are dealing with right now. So many people that I know are in really desperate situations. Situations that if you don't show up and change things, they likely will not survive. There are so many of those desperate situations right now, I am not even sure how to pray for all of them.

Fact is God, we need you, now, to show up and rescue your people. And that is really it.

What God Said Tonight:

I am here and I am working in each of the situations even right now. My work is not always obvious. I don't always part the Red Sea to make things right. 

Sometimes, I give people a new idea. Sometimes, I ask another one of my kids to help out. Sometimes I know it is only a matter of time for the situation to work itself out. And then sometimes, I do part the Red Sea and do a crazy miracle, just to show that I still can. 

I will work on your behalf, always, to make sure all things wok toward your good. I will guide you always. I will love you always. These are some of the promises from me to you, my children.
