daily prayer

Good morning! How are we faithing? Our love for on another is quite complex. Like my older brother and I, we can argue and even come to blows, well, not anymore, and yet still love each other then have a coke after a fight. The love for each other is not diminished, our respect intact. I can tell him anything and he doesn't think any less of me. We can be completely honest with each other and because of the relationship, opinions do sway and other views are considered. So if that confidence is possible in this human state, imagine what it is like with God! If we seek the wisdom and face of our savior we can't help but believe his words without any doubt. We begin to understand his love for us and are bold to go to him for anything, just like my brother but 100 fold more! This is true love. This is how we are able to begin to see what God sees in others while looking past all the trappings that have hindered and help lead people to the savior and the love that can't be explained. Our communication through prayer is designed to reach out and touch that love directly.

NAS

Isaiah 58:9-10
"Then you will call, and the LORD will answer;
You will cry, and He will say, 'Here I am.'
If you remove the yoke from your midst,
The pointing of the finger, and speaking wickedness,
And if you give yourself to the hungry,
And satisfy the desire of the afflicted,
Then your light will rise in darkness,
And your gloom will become like midday.
NAS

Remember Carl Moore today as he gets some stints installed...remember Sue Doss, Debbie Reynolds and Katie Shannon as they heal...remember to seek God's face in everything...

Heavenly Father,
Thank you for making yourself open to a lot like us. Lord we ask for wisdom and confidence that you do love us and you are with us in all things. Help us to be people after your heart. Lord forgive us where we fail for we don't intend to but we are weak and revert sometimes. We know you are the only God and we do seek you. Heal our hearts and minds so we can love genuinely and be ambassadors for you. In Jesus' name amen
