Daily Prayer Requests 24th August...
Sorry Kat. Hope you don't mind me posting this for today. I need prayer for stuff that just isnt an emergency but is important to me and my life.
1. Pray that God teaches me to close my mouth instead of opening it and saying the wrong things.
2. Pray that I can catch those little white lies(that are just plain ole lies when you get to it) before they get out of my mouth.
3.I got the answer to my prayer, my husband is starting to take the lead in the house and finances and is going to church and now owns his very own Bible that he reads daily. I need your prayers because it is hard to let go and let him handle things.
I know my prayers are selfish today, but I've been a bit introspective lately and I know you all are prayer warriors and will lift me up in prayer. Hugs-Amy
Your prayer for white lies made me smile because just last week my 18 yr old grand daughter (she lived with us last year-mom has drug issues) said to me remember when I moved in? Gramma you said "there is no such thing as a white lie, a lie is a lie". Those darn kids remember everything. Math she can't remember, that she remembers. Will also keep your request in prayer. Karen
Amy - I am VERY pleased you posted these today! Honestly I had a VERY long weekend and had not yet ****il this pm) gotten to the boards/email/communications. I used to believe that prayers for myself were selfish and rarely prayed for ME but to be honest with you I have come to learn that I HAVE to pray for myself so that I get guidance, support and more from God and it is also a relief of sorts that accompanies my journaling - my talking to God. Keep in mind it isn't just praying/prayers when it comes to growing our relationship with God but truly talking to him about everyday things as well. LOL...ok I'm not laughing at you but we think the same beautiful! You are not being selfish just honest and receptive to your needs/life. So you know, self reflection (to me) means you are READY to deal with issues you've identified within yourself and deal with them in all the realms that we need to satisfiy (again my opinion) which are physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. All best to you and thanks again....
Many hugs,
Kat
