Just a Prayer I decided to Write Out

April 13th, 2009

Whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy – meditate on these things. Philippians 4:8

Oh God, let me meditate on your Word. Help me not to forget to speak it all day long, and talk about your great works. You God give me life. Every breath that I take, let it be in You. And every step I take, let in be on the path that leads to you. Help me to follow you at all times, so that way I can lead others.

God, you are my strength, and my desire is to stay by your side. You are my courage at all times. I know I can always call on you and you will hear me. Your love never leaves me, for you created the love I have for others, and yours is by far greater. Your hand is mighty and strong, and can rescue me from whatever evil comes towards me. Just one Word from your mouth can stop any troubles that come against me.

Cast your burden on the Lord, and he shall sustain you, He shall never permit the righteous to be moved. Psalms 55:22

God you said in Your Word, that there are many people to harvest, but just a few workers. “There are many people to harvest, but the workers are few. Matthew 9:37″. Let me be one of those workers. Use me, God. Use my hands, and my feet. Work through me, and show Your Glory through me. Pour out Your love and Grace on me, and fill me with your Holy Spirit. So that everything I say or do, will be what you have called me to do.

Thank you for loving me, and caring for me. Though I have done nothing to deserve your kindness. Everyone has sinned, and you still love us. Though our sin is what killed Your only Son, you have forgiven us, and then given us a free gift of Eternal Life, that all we must do is accept it, by walking down the path towards it. Many obstacles are before me, but I thank you for moving them out of my way. There are many paths to take, but there is no one like You God. I choose You.

Don’t give up

Don’t give up

Mark 10:27 …”with God all things are possible.

Philippians 4:13 says “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”

You may have something you really want or need, or a goal that you want to reach. And you may find yourself praying and praying, and nothing ever seems to happen. But don’t give up. Don’t think that just because nothing has happened that God doesn’t want it for you. If you are abiding in God, and God in you, God will give you your heart’s desires.

“If you abide in Me and My words abide in you, you will ask for what you desire, and it shall be done for you. John 15:7″.

You may pray everyday, and it may seem as if your prayers aren’t answered. Keep in mind this verse

“Therefore, whatever things you ask when you pray believe that you shall receive them and you shall have them. Mark 11:24″

You may say you believe in what you are praying for, but if you give up, and think that you aren’t going to receive what you pray for, then you never believed for it in the first place.

Don’t give up on your goal. Don’t give up on praying for the things you want or need. Just abide in God, and let Him abide in you. The day you give up, may have been the very day you were going to get what you had asked for. Just remember, every day that you don’t give up is one step closer to reaching your goals.

“Therefore, whatever things you ask when you pray believe that you shall receive them and you shall have them. Mark 11:24″

Mark 10:27 …”with God all things are possible.”

Simple Prayer

March 16th, 2009

Well here is my first blog post. This is just a simple prayer I wrote down. It’s something I try to pray everyday.

God, let me see only what you want me to see,
hear only what you want me to hear,
speak only what you want me to speak,
think only what you want me to think,
and know only what you want me to know,
let me walk only where you want me to walk,
stand only where you want me to stand,
and go only where you want me to go,
let me be only who you want me to be,
and let Your Will be done and not mine,
Give me a desire for You, and only You,
Let Your light shine through me, so that I might be a light for others.


If you abide in Me and My words abide in you, you will ask for what you desire, and it shall be done for you. John 15:7

Therefore, whatever things you ask when you pray believe that you shall receive them and you shall have them. Mark 11:24

I can do all things through Christ who strenghtens me. Philippians 4:13
