I have find it that the more I talk to God in prayer or me just jabbering away knowing that God is listening and already knows what I am going to say, it brings great comfort to soul knowing that God is always listening to me. I have some opportunity to speak about God to some of my loved ones, telling them how much I feel I have changed since growing closer to this Almight God. I do have to admit that I am not perfect and I do sin, but I know that God is all powerful that he is with me no matter what.
I have a couple of prayer request, if you have a few moments to pray for these people, I would appreciate it.
I have a close friend that is struggling in her personal life, she is in the admist of consulting a specilist with this problem that she is having. I love her dearly and my heart breaks to hear what she is going through. She has been praying for some relief, but her mind is not letting her rest to fully focus on God. Please pray for relief, support, comfort, and knowing that God is with her, she is not alone.
I also would like to pray for school children, that they are getting comfortable in going to school, finding/making friends, and those that are new in school or beginning their school years, that they are making friends, getting along with their teachers, and are finding comfort in their parents when they get home and with God.
I do have some praises:
My sister came to our church a few Sundays ago, because she would really like to find a home church. She was very much like me and not knowing where I wanted to worship at and where our family love of Christ will grow. I love where I go to church at and my sister has seen this, so she has asked to join us one Sunday. After she attended she went home and spoke to her husband about what the sermon was about. She likes the way we praise God with our praise team leading the way, she liked how the sermon is directly from the verses in the bible. She is planning on attending more services with us. I pray that she finds the church she can call home, where she and her family can grow to love Christ more each day.
Another praise/prayer came last night when my sister called about her friend and that her friend has grown distant to Christ and she wanted to start going to church again. My sister was telling her what she heard during the sermon she attended. Her friend is wanting to come up to our church to see and hear the word of the Lord. I pray that she can finds the way to the Lord again.
Again if you can find a few moments to pray and praise God for these individuals.
Until Next Time...
God Bless
Jess

I will definitely lift your friend & sister up in my prayers!
Way to go Jess..just living your life for God in the "every day" stuff has touched your sister and now your sister is touching her friends...it's the "each one reach one" affect that just keeps multiplying! I will keep them in prayer that they too will find a church homes as well as the peace, love, and salvation in Christ just as you have!
