Random Christian thought's thread continued ...

I pray that my sister and mother have a desire (and find) to go to church and live more of a Christian life.

I pray that my brother continues to be on fire for the Lord.
 
Prayer For The Human Family:

O God, you made us in your own image and redeemed us through Jesus your Son: Look with compassion on the whole human family; take away the arrogance and hatred which infect our hearts; break down the walls that separate us; unite us in bonds of love; and work through our struggle and confusion to accomplish your purposes on earth; that, in your good time, all nations and races may serve you in harmony around your heavenly throne; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
 
Prayer For Our Enemies:

O God, the Father of all, whose Son commanded us to love our enemies: Lead them and us from hatred, cruelty, and revenge; and in your good time enable us all to stand reconciled before you; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
 
Gravity explains the motions of the planets, but it cannot explain who set the planets in motions. God governs all things and knows all that is or can be done. ~ Sir Issace Newton
 
Prayer For The Unemployed:

Heavenly Father, we remember before you those who suffer want and anxiety from lack of work. Guide the people of this land so to use our public and private wealth that all may find suitable and fulfilling employment, and receive just payment for their labor; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

I am feeling really low. I prayed for discernment and finally met a man who loves God first. A true gentleman. The problem is that his finances are not in order with potential marriage (let alone dating). When I dated the losers who didn't know God, they HAD money. Now that I find someone with whom I'm compatible, he struggles. How can we build a future on that? :cry:

Just feeling sorry for myself when I really need to buck up. :ohwell:

G-d can change his financial circumstances. How many rich jerks actually change their hearts?:yep:

I totally understand where you are and what you're experiencing right now but ya know, what matters most is his potential as a man. Does he possess the potential to financially care for himself and for you?

Is he just in a bad place right now financially (because of the low economy and lack of better available jobs, etc.) but still has a drive to succeed in life?

Look for the potential in him first, ask him questions about what he wants in life and how he intends to achieve them, then look for the efforts he is actively making to accomplish them.

Also, how do you REALLY feel about him, the man? Pray some more about him and ask God to show you if he is the one for you. HE will show you.
 
Thanking the Lord for adding an extra year to my life and praying that He reveals Himself to me more this year and I learn and grown and blossom in every aspect of my life. I pray that the joy of the Lord will be my strength this year and the light that is in me shines bright. I also pray that I get aligned with the purpose for which I was created in Jesus's precious name, Amen! Happy Birthday me!! :drunk:

Happy Birthday Topsyturvy86!

O God, our times are in your hand: Look with favor, we pray, on your servant Topsyturvy86 as she begins another year. Grant that she may grow in wisdom and grace, and strengthen her trust in your goodness all the days of her life; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
 
God showed me that when i stop chasing and just open myself up to him, the possibilities are limitless. He wants my heart first, my obedience 2nd and once he has those two, I will be comfortable with him using me for His will and because of my obedience, I will be blessed, whether spiritually, materially, emotional or otherwise.

Seek the relationship, not the blessing
 
:yep: Happy Birthday to you. My mothers birthday is today as well. :yep:

I'm changing up jobs and am seeking a change in career in the healthcare field and went to an interview today. As we talked about shifts, the interviewer told me how much she enjoyed her shift because it allowed her to avoid her children...huh??? She said that she didn't have to help them with homework nor get them ready for school. I'm not sure exactly the specific hours but she must have been working some very long double shifted hours in the wee hours of the night. She's degreed and loves her field, is married with children. Well, is she loving her family as much? I felt sorry and she was rather apologetic. She certainly didn't expect me to do the same.

G-d works in mysterious ways because talking to her on the phone, I could sense her tension. Then, in person, this revelation. It was a blessing in disguise even though I'm a bit disappointed by the outcome. All things will work out because I'm looking to Him. He is my guard by day and by night.

^^^^ thank you. Needed that, I keep trying to remind myself of that and focus on something Job said to his wife. (Paraphasing) will not except trouble from God but only good?
 
I cried myself to sleep last night because I let go a close friend who was dear to me he was my go to guy everyone needs a go to guy when you need a hug or a cuddle and to talk about anything. We could talk for hours we had the same humour and just understood each other even without saying a word. I dont want him out of my life but I know (well Im getting there) that it is for the best, it certainly is the best for my relationship with God. No one said it would be easy but no one said it would be this hard but I knew that this day would come even from the beginning.
 
I can empathize with you on this Spongie... I pray that God heals your broken heart as you go through this trial.. you're half-way there, because you know what you have to do.. :yep:

God bless
