The scripture today was about Adam and Eve and the sin of eating the 'apple' of Good and Evil. What I thought right away was: if God didn't want them to eat of that fruit, why did he put that tree right smack dab in the middle of Eden? Why the temptation? Was it to see if they would obey him? We know God has given us free choice in life. We can choose to do His will or our will. I've learned in my life that rarely are they the same. But only His will is the best for us.
Some people don't think God answers their prayers. I KNOW He answers all mine. Yes, sometimes he says NO! And eventually my life proves to me that He was right to say no. What I wanted was not the best thing for me. Sometimes He says WAIT! That is the most difficult one to deal with. Our society has become an 'instant' one. We want everything NOW! But God wants us to have patience and thus He makes us wait. And sometimes we are to wait because the timing isn't right for us. Only God can see the big picture. We can only see the present.
I am so blessed every day! God is so good to me. I do see the answers to my prayers. I see my friends being healed, getting the things we prayed about, jobs, a place to live, someone to love them, etc. I have many, many friends online and I pray for them all. I have many people in my life that God gives me to pray for. There are many people I will never know that I also pray for. And I see the answers to my prayers over and over as I see God blessing my friends.
Today I have specific people to pray for.
My wonderful little Princess and her mother Precious who were badly injured last weekend. I know they love you, Lord.
Jennifer Johnson needs a healing. Today she will find out her status with the cancer. She's been through an awful battle and I pray that God gives her the peace of a good report from the MRI. I pray for all my family, but especially for Thomas. He is trying to change his life and I am very pleased about that. I pray that God gives him the strength and courage to stay on the right path.
I pray for my landlady Mary Daniel. She is having medical issues that the doctors are not able to figure out. She has gone through a time of great weakness. I love her and need her in my life. I am not ready to lose her... praying for a healing so she can once again be the amazing, loving, God fearing woman I know..
The Lord says "pray ye one for another that you will be healed" and I depend on that!
I need a healing in my body, in my finances, in my ability to take care of myself, my house, my babies. Heal me Lord so I can serve you in whatever way you want to use me... I LOVE you Lord with all my being. Thank you for loving me and blessing me so much.
