11-22-09 SUNDAY

this is a first....I woke wanting to compose an entry....I woke up this am...came downstairs...so realizing that everyroom in this house is in disarray. JUST HOW DID WE GET HERE...

It is Sunday....A TIME TO WORSHIP......A TIME TO REST.    What does this look like to the single mother of 4....she doesnt know where to begin.   She knows what needs to be done, but where to begin.  First she has to find the energy to address this family's needs.  Where does she find that....IN THE LORD


DEAR WONDERFUL MERCIFUL SAVIOUR..

THIS IS THE DAY THAT YOU HAVE MADE...HELP US REJOICE AND BE GLAD IN IT....

1.  How should we rejoice
2.  How to be glad in it.

REMOVE MY GUILT AND REPLACE IT WITH SOMETHING WE CAN WORK WITH.  GIVE ME CREATIVITY TO BRING SOME HEALING AND DEPENDENCY ON YOU INTO THIS DAY.  CONSUME ME AND MY CHILDREN WITH ALL OF YOU..   KEEP OUR EYES ON YOU AND NOT OF THE STUFF OF THIS WORLD.  PLACE A HEDGE AROUND US, ONE THAT EVEN THE ENEMY CAN NOT PENETRATE.

GIVE ME THY HEALING POWERS
1. against anger
2. laziness which distracts me from you

PRICK MY HEART DAILY OF HOW MUCH I NEED YOU AND THY WORD.  USE ME TO BRING GLORY TO YOUR KINGDOM.  USE ME TO BE A LIGHT AND SALT.  USE ME IN A QUIET UNSEEN WAY.  ESPECIALLY IN MY HOME.  ONLY YOU CAN DO THIS...ONLY YOU HAVE THIS KIND OF WISDOM AND CREATIVITY.  ONLY YOU HAVE THE POWER OF THIS MAGNITUDE AND ABILITIES.

I PRAY OVER MY CHILDREN...

1. patience
2. kindness
3. the conscious of right and wrong that comes only from the Holy Spirit
4. protection from the enemy...protection from the world, peers
5. health and knowledge
6. a desire to learn about YOU...that only you can place in their hearts and minds
7. discernment
8. responsibility
9. a deep desire to please YOU
10. obedience
11. discipline

LORD THANK YOU FOR HEARING MY PRAYER...HELP ME TO CLEAN OUT MY HEART DUMP THE BAD OUT...I WANT TO DO THIS WILLINGLY WITH YOUR HELP...PLEASE NO TRIAL IN DOING SO.


LOVE  AND IN JESUS NAME

ME..A SERVANT IN THE MAKING
