Happy Tuesday, friends! I've had some technical issues with my internet at home this week, which is partly why I'm not sharing here early in the morning as usual. Yesterday time just got completely away from me as I literally ran errands and was busy all day long. I was at my Mom's for dinner last night, which is why I didn't write this post last night, even though by then my internet was back up and running.
I say all that to ask a favor: I know many of you pray for me pretty regularly, and I'm so thankful for that! Will you pray specifically for me today? It's a big day in relation to my current life circumstance, and it's one I've been dreading. Now that it's here I'm relieved, so that I can get it behind me, but I have no idea what is in store for today. I anticipate it being long and drawn out, so if you feel led to pray for me, here's what I'm asking for specifically:
- to be led by the Holy Spirit
- to have strength for the day and in the days to come
- for God to work in and direct the hearts of those present today (Proverbs 21:1)
- for me to remember to trust in God's perfect and sovereign plan for my life
- for me to accept and walk toward whatever His will is for my life, whatever that may look like
- grace upon grace
- for me to be able to continue to walk in forgiveness toward the healing that needs to happen in my own heart
- for the joy of the Lord to be evident in my life today, and for God to use me in whatever way He sees fit
I've been reading for a while but have not really commented. I want you to know that I am stopping to pray right now. I specifically pray that you feel His love and that you continue to trust that all will be well.
ReplyDeleteThank you for taking the time to comment today, and especially for your prayers! I have to say that I did feel the love of God today; He was near to me this morning as I read His word (I'm in Job), and He encouraged me with one of the verses. ❤️❤️

DeleteI'm late reading this and I am hoping you felt the prayers of many as you faced today's challenges. I will continue to keep you in my prayers. And since it's almost time for bed I will pray you have a restful night's sleep. Take care.
ReplyDeleteThank you, my friend!
DeletePraying that today went well and you felt God's protection and love. Thank you for always being so positive and sharing God's word. I am sorry that you have had to go through this difficult time but I am sure God has bigger and better things planned for your future.
ReplyDeleteLifting up prayers for you, Jennifer, with hopes that today went well or better than anticipated! May you feel God's love embracing you and may His peace fill your soul.
ReplyDeleteI am late to the party but sending up a prayer of thanksgiving that this day is now behind you. Hoping and praying that it went better than you expected and that you felt the presence of God holding you close. Tomorrow is the first day of the rest of your life. Sleep well and wake up ready to take on the world. XO
ReplyDeleteLate to the party is not excuse, now the prayer of thanksgiving is not doing any good because it's expired.
