Today was another AmAzing day walking with my friend, God. I misplaced my iPod a couple of days ago and couldn't find it anywhere. This morning I went to my office to look for it, thinking that it might have been there. It was not. So I started praying, 'Angels please go find my iPod and bring it to me. Thanks!' The Bible says that we can send our angels on assignments for us, so why not?!?!?! I found it tonight... :o) in the washing machine... :o(. I stuck that thing in the dryer with my sheets and towels hoping and praying it would be alright. I didn't pray out loud, because it seemed silly to pray for something so trivial. I didn't even really ask God to fix it. I just had this teeny tiny little bit of hope in my heart that it would work. After all, it was my carelessness that ended it up in the washing machine in the first place (... and this is the SECOND time that I have done that, the first iPod did NOT come back to life).
And the verdict is...
It is as clean as a whistle and works just fine!!! Thank You Jesus!!!
I guess I need to be a little more careful when going through the laundry!
This afternoon after running with a friend, she asked if I would pray with her foot. When we got back to her house, we sat and talked over tea for a while. We went into the living room to pray. We sat on the floor, and I just put my hand on her foot and released love. I didn't even really pray any words. I didn't have any words to pray really. Her foot has a bone that is detached and it needs to go back where it belongs. The bone didn't go back where it belonged but I know that she felt the Father's love and when we got up she wasn't in pain anymore! Glory to God! I know that even though she didn't see a miracle in that foot today, she is receiving His healing touch everyday until that foot is whole again. Sometimes the healing comes in a miracle and sometimes it is a progressive healing. I wonder how God decides which method to use? I wish He'd tell me!
I had a client in my office this evening with 3 bulging disks in her neck. As I was putting lotion on her feet, I asked the Lord if I should pray for her. Well, I didn't really ask... I was really thinking should I ask her if I can pray with her. For the first time, I felt that I SHOULD NOT... I tried to reason it out. God always wants to heal... everyone... all the time. Again, though I felt that shouldn't ask her if I could pray. So I didn't. The scripture where Jesus talks about only doing what He saw the Father doing came immediately to my mind. I asked God if that was something He was doing and again I got a no.
It is strange sometimes how He works. Three different responses all in the same day. One time the prayers are answered before they are prayed. The next time the healing comes over time, it's a work in progress and about just releasing His love in the situation. Other times, He says not yet. I don't understand Him... But I am willing to get to know Him better and I know that He will show me His ways. Psalms 103 says that He made known His acts to Israel and His ways to Moses. Lord, I want to know Your ways! In Jesus' name, Amen!
