Day 214 ~ Wednesday

Thank You Lord for helping me with this whole obedience thing and reminding me just as I was getting ready to head to bed that I needed to post today. You really are the best and thank You for Your help in Your work and patience with me!

So tonight I had a client come in who wants a miracle.  Has asked for a miracle.  It hasn't happened yet.  I could tell that the disappointment and that she felt that God wasn't listening and didn't care for her.  I asked her if I could pray and she said no. 

It really made me sad that she thought that God didn't hear her and that He didn't want to give her the desire of her heart.  I am praying for her anyway. 

I am praying that God heals her wounds and that He touches her heart and gives her hope again.  I just thought about how I had prayed for my Cabbage Patch Doll (see day 205) and God didn't bring it when I asked...  I let that frame what I thought about God for a long time.  That He was the mean kid on the ant hill that I had to manipulate to get help.  Pretty soon, I quit asking for it too.

Thank God He has renewed and restored me and brought me to a place where I trust Him whether I get what I asked for or not.  I know that He knows best for me and that He has good plans for me.  Plans to give me a hope and a future.  I know His plans are the same for my client.  I will keep praying for her.
