I missed a day!! Actually it is 'breaking' my Lent. I don't know why, or what happened. I did think about it a couple times yesterday, what I would write.. but never did.
So this morning is a morning of repentance...
Dear Father, my wonderful creator, I know you forgive me. How amazing that knowledge is. But you know my heart and you know that I do not take that forgiveness lightly. I do not live my life in a reckless way, knowing you will forgive me. That's not to say I do not do reckless things.
During this season of Lent I search my heart, seeking to find the things that displease you. I consider my behaviors, willing to change what doesn't make you smile.
My study this morning was to ask for faith! Lord, you know how strong and deep my faith is. I KNOW you are there for me and that you love me. I know that you will always take care of me and give me the desires of my heart. In almost 76 years you have never let me down and you never will.
During those times when my faith was 'stretched' to the limit, I was able to make it through the dark because I knew you held me in your hands. God, you got me through several bouts of grief, a few painful surgeries and other physically painful times. You sent me amazing angels disguised as friends who were willing to help me financially when I got myself in a jackpot.
You have been helping me and directing me to change my ways to be a better steward of the treasures you have blessed me with.
Although my heart is repentant for my multitude of sins, my heart is also delighted with your love and mercy toward me.
Thank you dear God for loving me so unconditionally and please give me more opportunities to show others that love you have for them, through me. I am so blessed to be able to serve you in so many ways..
In Jesus most Holy and Precious name
Amen
