Today, I woke up. Struggled getting out of bed. Went to school. Then threw on the sunglasses and went off to work.
When driving, I was amazed of how beautiful the day was and then realized I had not even said hi to my father today. This life is so fast paced and lately I have been running without taking one breath.
Today the Lord has taught me once again to take a breath and enjoy His creation.
The other day, one of my coworkers asked me if I kept an ongoing prayer list. I explained how I have an ongoing mental prayer list, but he challenged me to begin to write down prayer request and to begin to become intentional with prayer.
So I challenge all of you to do that! Become more disciplined with prayer and start strengthening your prayer life with the Lord and watch how it will strengthen not only your relationship with the Lord, but with everyone around you as well.
I ask that you pray for my coworkers friend, his name is Taylor Pratt. He has never smoked in his life, and is a very healthy man, but just recently got diagnosed with lung cancer. He is married and has three kids. Where the cancer is located is inoperable. It is with the strength of prayers and God's power that Taylor will be healed. I believe in miracles and I believe the Lord can do anything, so please pray for Him.
So, I ask you, where does the time go?
"Teach us to number our days that we may gain a heart of wisdom."
- Psalm 90:12
So, today as I rushed through my morning, I stepped back to realize that I am alive today, so I can glorify His name. The Lord is our creator, our rock, our savior, our father, so why don't we start giving Him more time.
"...let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds. Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another- and all the more as you see the Day approaching."
- Hebrews 10: 24-25
It is time to build one another up in prayer and fellowship and to most importantly start truly giving everything to the Lord.
God Bless,
In Him,
Jenny
