Being at risk: How to not rely on our own wits to pray through the tough things with our friends and family

A few months ago, one of my friends was really far from God and was struggling.
I thought about, talked about and worried about my friend's struggles a lot! But thinking, talking and worrying is not the same as praying. 
So I decided to do two things for my friend: I mailed her a bible and I ramped up my prayer life. The bible package was not as easy as the prayers though, but both did work, praise God!
But, there were days I felt like God was not hearing my prayers. Have you ever tried praying someone through a messy complicated situation and have not seen answers right away? I know it's hard but, do know with confidence God hears your prayers. Trust that he is working out the difference even when you don't see the difference. And tell fear that it has no place in this conversation with God!

What is on your schedule today: how do you know how to plan your years according to Jesus Christ and his terms and conditions 

There is no insight no plan that can succeed against the Lord. Proverbs 21 It’s in there somewhere.

He is in the word of God! Jesus said don’t judge by merely human appearance and by human rules. Rather, judge by what is in a person’s heart!  Fake news has been around since the garden of Eden, whereas I need to start marking my bible in such a way that when a Jehovah's Witness comes knocking at the door of my soul, I am prepared to tell them the Real Truth behind the good news of the true gospel of Jesus Christ! So, please pray for me that I have my bible marked in the fashion. So true.  So, like I said, be careful abou

Becoming a catalyst is hard work: if you want to see a change, you need to be the change

You know who you are in Christ! God loves to be intimate with you at all times. Song of Songs as I mentioned before many times, is about sexual love and Christ and the soul together as one. Luke 15 as mentioned in this song, has to do with Jesus leaving the ninety nine people to find the one lost person. It is important that you and I become catalysts for change in our culture these days. For more, visit this website  to have a clear clue on becoming the women of God Jesus wants you to be. We hope to God Almighty that you will become more than you hope to become for the sake of Christ! Blessings!

Don't rush me!! Wait for me Jesus...

What does not rushing look like? It starts with a desperate prayer: Lord, unrush me! You know, Jesus did not rush. He went out of his way to talk to the woman at the well and to reach out his hand to the leper. He stayed prioritized by loving on people and made time for them. You know, if your feeling rushed, remember that the Savior of the world did not rush so neither should you. For more, visit: proverbs31.org . Blessings!
