I was working behind the scenes, unable to leave an impression or earn any tips. Prior to this, my boss informed me of a shorter shift, which means less income. Well, my mother in faith was informed of this, as I sorted through some choices to be made. After I shared, she confidently stated...

Last night I found myself praying for a woman whom I loved. During the same prayer I found myself praying for something seemingly impossible. "Bring them back together. If he will accept Christ, somehow, at some time, bring them back together... if it is Your Will. If they will like each other...

Lord, I pray for those who have done the best they know to do and still find heartache and problems at just about every turn or choice made. I ask that someone reading this, someone who has hit the wall and is about to give up or give in, that he or she will look to You and not one's own...

There is a woman who just lost her job. She just moved and then the job dropped her like her investment meant nothing. She was and is sore about it. Yet, it allowed for stones to build, rather than throw. Thankfully, she was in attendance as a visitor to church this Sunday and so I was able to...

Tonight there was a man who decided to pull me aside. I thought he might have something of monetary value, but it was a tract, a tool to point people to the gospel and for urging their repentance. I accepted the gesture, but I felt bad because I know my faith is in God already. Still, I listened...

There was man who was very quiet, sitting alone, and yet I noticed him looking my direction. I was wondering what to say, if to say, and then... I did it... I asked something like, "How was it?" And he replied. And then he asked me about my day and I replied with a content cheerfulness. Then...

A year ago, I was trying to talk a cousin out of making some dead-end choices, especially when it came to following God. He listened, he responded, and then he distanced himself... and I respectfully did likewise. Well, I did a bad job in following up and I allowed my relationship with him to...

I was reading James, really in a great place of focus and deliberately seeking God for matters of the heart and mind. Well, as I was focusing on the part that says, "anyone who does not keep a tight reign on his tongue" (1:26), a man sat down with a coffee in hand. And without warning he started...

I have a boss who is a really sweet man. He is sly, so I cannot read him. And if I could, my interpretation is probably off. Either way, I am so blessed by this man. You see, I was not looking for work with him when I was given the opportunity. But when I shared I was about to take another job...

I have a friend who is on my heart as a spiritual burden. Pray for the Lord to soften her heart. Pray that she grows in the Lord. She is a wonderful person. Pray she keeps hiding the word in her heart. To God be the glory. In Jesus' name, amen.

I am so grateful for what God has given me. I am not very wealthy, nor have i a number of life goals met. But I am so grateful that God has awakened a seemingly ceaseless desire to hide his word in my heart. And I find that as this happens, the Word is coming alive in my daily walk. Or better...

About 5 years ago, I met a man who works a tiny thrift shop. I think I stopped to shop, but I ended up buying nothing. The atmosphere was inviting, however, so I went back-- not for stuff but to talk with the owner. The talk was a good one, and it informed me of a common interest-- his...

I am thanking the Lord for a job opportunity. It may not be something long-term, but it could help. financially speaking. Let it be a learning curve, if nothing else. Pray for church hours, that they not be lost to work hours. God knows the details. Pray for me to accept the burning in my...

I am certainly in a state of wonder. I am grateful for what God has done. But I am curious as to where I should work in investing time, energy, etc. Certainly, God is to be the focus. And others need to be helped. And I need to be intentional in letting God and others speak what's needed into...

I pray for a godly conversation to take place through an important phone call. Please pray that the Lord is at the center. At the very least, pray that I listen while praying in my heart. THanks

I will not go into detail. I need wisdom and to accept the consequences that will come. I need to trust God, not to fear. But I must also be prepared/preparing for truth. Praying that I rejoice in whatever form the grace. --IDEA

I went for a walk. I was going to carry a backpack, but I got a sensation not to bring it. I was going to take some books and paper and work on devotions at a local pastry shop. But I knew it was against my current goal for health and money management. Still, I took a few dollars, for whatever I...

I ask for this simple yet trying prayer concern. That I will listen more, taking the things i hear to God in prayer, and that i follow him in the steps he tells me to take. I cannot please everyone, but I want to respect the one who gives me Life. When i share what I think, or what I think...

I am at a standstill without traffic. I am running my iron-bound feet into the ground. I am running out of energy, too. Hope will outlast this, however. Still, where will I go? I need prayer. I thought I knew where I was going. I thought I knew what I was doing. I was wrong. And now I am...
