Thank you again, Nana that was a powerful illustration of asking God.
]]>Debi, I fully understand addiction and have seen how the Lord in His faithfulness has answered that prayer. I will continually lift up your family with that specific prayer! 🙂 He is able to do that and much more! Hugs!
]]>What a blessing Dana to know that you have chosen to ask again~! The best remedy for pain is the constant communication with the Lord! 🙂 Praying for you!
]]>Amen Robin!! I will join you in that prayer. While you wait may you learn to live content with much or little, for indeed the Lord is more than enough. 🙂
]]>Anita, isn’t it funny how we are so much like the Israelites who continually found themselves trying to create gods that “replaced” the true God. May the Lord grant you the desire of being centered in Him alone!
]]>Debra, it is always a great reminder to realize that God wants to give us the desires of our heart. 🙂 Thanks for your comment! 🙂 The Lord knows it means the world to me!
]]>Marjolaine, when the Lord brings healing it might feel painful but there is always the hope of freedom and TRUE healing.. Praying the Lord gives you that peace… 🙂
]]>I have not asked God for much lately….he cannot bring my dad back, nor my husband’s father. I believed that scripture that says “ask and it shall be given”, and OH I prayed when my father in law died. I prayed and prayed, telling God that I KNEW He could do ANYTHING, and He could erase time and give him back, if it was His will. Each day I woke up, he was still gone.
However, the last thing I prayed for was given. I prayed for “just a little more time with my mom” when I sat by her hospital bedside, wondering if she would ever wake up, and IF she did, what would she be like after suffering a stroke and all she’d been through. She has also overdosed on her prescription medications, because the stroke had happened many days before, but she was confused most of the time and had been OVERtaking her medicines.
He gave her back to me…she now lives with me, and it IS a struggle everyday, between myself, my husband, and my mother ALL dealing with great loss and depression. Oh what a crew we are!!
But I am learning. I am CHOOSING to communicate again, and ASK. I am curious to see what He does.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful story.
Blessings,
Dana W. 😉
