I hope I can keep track of what day I am on! It was really easy the first month and already this morning I had to stop and think,"What day is it?" Oh, well. I am a little behind anyway, typing yesterdays post this morning before I head out for school.
There are two people that I was praying for yesterday who are in pretty serious medical states. I wanted to pray them healthy with everything inside of me. However, I could feel the hand of God moving a different direction. I know it is weird, but I could actually feel when I was not praying in tandem with how He was choosing to move in their situations.
Yay, for me that I gave up praying my way after only a few minutes! I can be pretty stubborn and I do like getting my own way. My catch phrase as a child was, "You're Not the Boss of Me!" All joking aside, God is beginning to show me His way, which is good because His ways are higher than our ways anyway! I also count it a huge sign of His affection and love for us when He shows us and teaches us about His ways. It says in the word that He made known His acts to the Israelites, but He made His ways known to Moses (Psalms 103). What an amazing thing that the God of the universe would care to show any of us His ways!
After I got over myself, I began praying for peace for the two people I was praying for, peace for them in their minds, their bodies and for their families. I know that God will bring something good out of their situations and will use them to draw other people closer to Him. I thank You God that You are drawing each and everyone of their family members close to You, that there will be salvations and reconciliations out of these situations! In Jesus' Name, Amen!
