What does HE have in store for me?
As you may know things are very stressful for me and my family. I've always prayed. I don't think I ever really prayed correctly until maybe now. I'm sure I still don't have it down, but I've become a more faithful prayer.
I prayer for my mom and healing for her weary body daily. I pray for protection of my family. I pray for financial guidance and a lot of other things.
I often wonder if it is necessary to pray for the same thing daily. Sometime I may leave something off, in fear as it may become a more routine prayer than and actual prayer from the heart.
Today our dog ran off and I know what this dog means to Chad. I'm also aware of how much stress he is under and adding the factor of a lost dog too it, just isn't how I want to end my day. So I called for Jeb and I called for Jeb and I called for Jeb. Still nothing.
So I stopped and prayed. Lord, please let this dog come home before Chad gets home from work. Lord, I know he doesn't need the extra stress. Please send him home. Amen!
So I called for Jeb and called for Jeb and called for Jeb. Still nothing, and then 5 minutes before Chad gets home, here comes Jeb.
Praise The Lord! And I prayed again thanking for sending Jeb home! And then it occurred to me. If He will send my dog home. Just what will He answer if I pray. I know that He Answers prayers on His timing, but it RESTORED my faith to PRAY for anything.
