I had read a post this morning and it said this, Have you prayed about it as much as you’ve talked about it?….and I thought well now isn’t that the truth…cause I don’t know about the rest of ya, but as for me when I just sit around talking about what’s happening or taking place in my life, then I begin to get really down and get really down fast..and even sometimes I can get myself discouraged, all by the things that I am talking about…and I end up making something that maybe isn’t all that bad into this huge enormous problem..you know you start out small.. and the next thing you know…that ole devil has done filled your mind with a bunch of lies, deceit and deception….cause that’s what he is, a lier and the father of them..John 8:44..somehow making that little problem into this huge problem..and making ya think the worst possible scenario…and making you believe that the worst is gonna happen and take place…so over the years I have learned to go and pray…not always do I pray first, I’ll be the first to tell ya…sometimes I go seeking out answers for my life from others..and as I said when I do this…I kinda don’t really get what I’m needing to hear…and most of the time others only give their opinion unto me….but when I quiet myself and I go and find my place with my Lord…then it is only there that I find rest for my weary soul…and I find them answers in which I am seeking and looking for…I get this assurance way down deep in my heart that everything is gonna be alright…for you see God says in His word for us to pray continually for that is His will concerning each of us..1 Thessalonians 5:17-18…and that when we delight ourselves in Him then He will give us our hearts desires..Psalm 37:4…so I go and get in my secret place, my quiet place and there I get alone with Jesus…and I just begin to worship Him, love Him and  thank Him…and I just begin to talk to Him just as I would sit down and talk to you…and I daily pour out my heart…my heartaches, my fears, my pains..my troubles…everything and anything that is happening or going to take place in my life, I give it all to Jesus..for how many of ya know that God cares about everything that concerns us….so I always seek out Gods wisdom…His direction…His guidance…praying for my family…for my friends…praying for restoration for broken relationships…praying for unity.. praying for them ones who struggle daily with addiction in their lives…praying for sicknesses to be healed…praying for our country..praying for the lost….for Gods word says that if my people whom are called by my name would humble themselves and pray, and seek His face and turn from our wicked ways, then would He hear from heaven, and then would He forgive our sins, and then would He heal our land…2 Chronicles 7:14…so talking about things is okay guys from time to time…but as I said sometimes talking can become very much so over rated and our tongues can begin to say things and to over work and over use themselves…for that tongue of ours is the smallest member of our bodies, but it does boast great things..James 3:5..so let us be careful with what were saying out from our mouths knowing that death and life are in the power of our tongues..Proverbs 18:21…and that we want our lives to be fruitful and multiply…so I pray we all guard our fruit…when we plant seeds in our prayer time with the Lord..that we will as well guard those prayers..and guys we guard them by watering them with Gods word…and making sure that nothing springs up to choke them prayers of ours…by the things in which we’re choosing to say, and by the way in which we’re choosing to live…so let us all be Holy as our Father which is up in heaven is Holy..Matthew 5:48..and let our yes be yes and let our no be no…2 Corinthians 1:19…so I pray that none of us are deceiving ourselves into thinking that what we’re saying or what we’re doing doesn’t matter…because it does…so let us be positive…let us be encouraging…and let us be everything that Jesus Christ would have for us to be..taking and casting those cares of ours upon Him, knowing that He cares and loves us so…1 Peter 5:7…In Jesus’ name I do ask and pray….Amen and Amen!!! Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
