Greetings Prayer Warriors,
If you’ve ever read any of the writings of the saints, when you hear them talk about God with such adoring love, such impassioned words, you may wonder, “What do they know that I don’t know!” The answer is, they KNOW him. They have emptied themselves of self-love, vanity, pride, possessions, or anything else that preoccupies their attention. They make room for Him. Not to say they weren’t attentive to their duties based on their station in life. Of course, they were! They just did those duties for the love of God.
Ask yourself, what is getting in your way of knowing Him more? Think of friends and family that are in love with the Lord. How does that impact you? Your family? If more people seek a deeper relationship with the Lord and live their life in service to the Lord, it’s impact will ripple to others, including your family. Say a prayer for yourself and then for your family members, that their desire for the Lord will grow like a mustard seed.
“Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me. For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and that of the gospel will save it. Mark 8: 34-35
Plant some mustard seed with your prayer! Water it with your tears of hope.
Peace, Joy, and Love,
Janet
Plant and water, for He causes the growth! Pass it on!
