Philippians 4:6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God.
I received a call from my niece Kim, she requested that I pray for her. She was making the hour and a half drive to present her testimony to an AA group. The meeting where she would speak is the home group of my great-niece Renae.
We have such an amazing and faithful God; I thank God for my sobriety of nearly 5 years. Has my sobriety opened the door of healing within my entire family, surely God has heard my prayers. As my sobriety progressed, I began to pray for each family member by name. I prayed that God would open the doors of their hearts and draw them into a personal intimate relationship with Him.
Living by example, trusting and praying to God for His blessing, certainly seems to be working in and through my family. Thank you, God!
Just, saw on Facebook that my nephew Jason and his family, Stacey, Jackson and Lilly attended church on Sunday; Jason was invited to church by his friend, Alvin and his mother. Is this another answered prayer, sure seems like it to me. Thank you, God!
If you have been following this blog from the beginning you have witnessed how friends have directed my course toward Jesus. Without a doubt, it is easier to hears and receive advise from friends, than from family members! Thank you God, for Rose, Shirley, Ginger, Jimmy, Karen, Amy, Barbara, Diane, Mr. and Mrs Bennett just to name a few special God-sent friends. Thanks to God for all who have prayed for me through-out my life.
Job 5:17-18 Blessed is the man whom God correct; so do not despise the discipline of the Almighty. For he wounds, but he also binds up; he injures, but his hands also heal.
I will continue in obedience, to present the desires of my heart to God the Father, for my family, my friends, my country and the world. Amen.
Psalms 119:165 Great peace have they who love your law and nothing can make them stumble.
