my quivers full -> RE: in need of some prayer and encouragment (7/6/2008 10:37:02 AM)

Thanks to all for your love and support, it is what we are called to do as believers. I had my kids over last weekend and I was asking them if there was anything they wanted me to pray for them. My oldest daughter asked that Joy would return to our family. When I read your (conrad50) request that God bring joy to the marriage, I remembered her words. I know God has been working and continues to work, but it's been almost a year and I'm tired. No amount of sleep will change how I feel. I need to see God's promises fulfilled. Gods not slow and I don't want to complain. I have become keenly aware of some important things this last year. Without Jesus, I can do nothing. Apart from Him, my work is in vain. If I'm not led of Him, it will not last. I have also learned that God is a soverign God. He works in ways I can not see and He accomplishes His will despite the plans of men. He is a loving Father and a good Shepherd. He will lead us and guide us and correct us when we need it. He is so merciful. These are some of the things I have known in my head, but now I know them in my heart. Father, I pray that believers everywhere, would not just know about You with their intellect, but would truly know You in their hearts. Let us not live in religeous exercise, but in relationship with You, our Lord, Savior, Shepherd, Healer and Redeemer. You are everything we need. Help us to lay down our lives to take up our cross and follow You. May we come to a greater understanding and revelation of who You are and who we are to You. Cleanse us Lord so that You can return for a clean and spotless bride in Jesus name amen
