I take my prayer for the day from joyce Meyer's daily clender. I used to writ her as author but it seemed like when I did my post got rejected so I stoped saying who I am quoting. Perhaps that time is over now,

Be encouraged that in God's time you will see the dreams and visions fulfilled that God has given you. don't ever give up!
<span class="ev_code_PURPLE">And so it was that he [Abraham], haveing waited long and endured patently, reealized and obtained what God had promised him. Hebrews 6;15 amp</span>

May we be able to wate patiently for God's good time, He is doing a wonderus work in us growing us up to be fit for war, with the principalities of the world. may our musels of faith, grow, untill we are ready to do what God has pland for us for just such a time as now. Do not grow werry of doing good. Keep looking up! for if your are facing the light there can be no darkness in your path.

I once had a vision, when I was taking Theraputic Touch Class 15 years ago, at this Catholic Monistary in the middle of Nebraska. I saw acers of sick and infermed, wailing, then I saw all of them go down [like down the drain]and only a few were sitting around the pool of Bethesda. I just new I was called to heal a few, and I have, over the next 4 years I saw a few, strangers who recognized me as a healer, and for them I was, able to impart the Lords healling to them. Like a teapot God poured it in and I toutched them and poored it out, and it healed them, some of them I still know, and they did not go and sin no more, one continued to drink, and died last year, but his heart was healed, and he loved the Lord, and every time he saw me he was blessed. another was stubern, and continued to disobey what she knew God wanted her to do. and her family is in shambles wen I see her she is convicted to try again. You know Jesus said go and sin no more, but we tend to take it up again, even thought we left it on the alter last night it creeps back in to our lives; guilt, and condemnation. and trashes another part of us. God is doing a mighty healing in me today. I am receving breakthoughs as to why my anxiety has been rearing it's ugly head the past 3 weeks. and it is setting me free! the odd pain in my heal is subsiding, and I no longer cry all day. It is finnished go and sin no more. but I do I get back in an old comfortable rutt and wallow, untill God comes to my resque and reminds me why things are going baddly again. This needs fixed, and now is the propper time, to fix it. To day I wrote my husband a letter, and I pray he reads it as I wish I could say it. and perhaps after he reads it I can say it directly, this time I just needed to write it. I am at peace with my decision.
I once heard an evangelist say that is one thing saten can not counterfit, the peace that passes all understanding. Jesus said my peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you! That is a sure sign God is in it when you have peace in your decision!

I can breathe easy for now,knowing God is pleased with me, and he loves me, "Just a closer walk with Thee, Grant it Jesus is my plee". we have all sung that but do you know what it will bring, to walk closer to God, look at the lives of the Apposels they walked in the foot steps of Jesus, and there lives were continues trials, and turmoil. but with an Attitude of Grattitude they served, and weather abased or abound, they worshiped Him. Me too. that is my goal, and for all of us! Awmen

Thank you Barb for praying for me! I felt peaceful at work, and not overwelmed. Praise the Lord!!

Cheri, I loved your post. You said when you would title it Jouce Meyers it would get erased, I wonder why?

In my prayers you will be!

God Bless,

Love is a Decision! boy do I need that this week, I had about decided to live without love.

Love is not a feeling we have; it is a decision to treat piople the way Jesus would treat them.

<span class="ev_code_RED">"this is my commandment, that you love one another, as I have loved you. - John 15;12 kjv</span>

Love thy neighbor as thy self, is tough on the neighbor. I suppose most of us try to treat our neighbor better than we treat our selves I know I do. I am such a people pleaser, I go all out for my neighbor, and let myself go, but God seys love thy neighbor as thy slef so He means we should love ourselves, so we can love our neighbor well.

That is probably the hardest thing I have ever had to do, but I know to get well I have to love me just as I am, like God loves me, and ask Him to help me walk in his will, I have to accept myself just like I am. I have quit colloring my hear, and taken a good look at just me! I am beginning to love what I see, and I am accepting that this is God's good and perfect work in me, but He has only started, as I have only just let him start, He has an awsome plan for my life and I am getting excited to see what tomarrow will bring. so far it has been better and better each day I accept His will for me. Faith, is tough but sooooo Important. I can't live without it!

I pray this chalenge we are all in streatches your faith, and growes you charictor, so God can use you, and me, in this A maz ing puzzel of life. Awmen

Jan. 6th the day of Epiphoney, I love uncelebrated holidays unmared by human greed. Actualy in some cultuers this is the day you give presents, the day the kings gave presents to the babay. this course has certainly been an epiphoney for me! this week has been so peacefull, I feel like I have grown aother foot, as the saying goes. I am loving my life tonight, and thanking God for his Grace and Mercys.

The pain of emotional rejection is one of the worst kinds of pain a person can feel, When a pers feels he has been rejected, there is intense emotional pain! It hurts! I really hate to feel that way and I am doing so much better at being less affected.

Always remeber to check your perception when you feel rejected, just because you feel rejected or percive rejection dosn't mean you are really being fejected, It may be the result of past problems, and if so, it is time to receive healing. Rejection is the toughest for me. I have precived rejection all my life, and I am learning, it can't hurt me if I don't believe in rejection, is true, I know God does not reject me so who else matters?

<span class="ev_code_RED">He sends forth His word and heals them and rescues them fromt he pit and destrution. - Psalm 1-7;20</span>

I am feeling so rescued tonight, form a life time of feelings, that may or not have been truely meant to be rejection it just dosn't matter any more, I am not rejected by the One that really counts in my life my God. I will seek Him and His kingdom, and all else will fall in line.
may Grace and Mercy be multiplyed to you all Awmen

Thanks Cheri. I too know feelings of rejection. Who doesn't? Some just get over it faster than others. I can't help but feel pain for different people on our site that have been rejected and drink because of it or oh, I'm so hurt by the rejection they feel. I probably shouldn't mention names and he could possibly come on here and if he does (Mike..Ninja) know I'm truly concerned about the hurt he's expressed on the "coming out" forum. Please others pray, go on there and speak if you're led by God. There are so many rejected people, yet Christ was rejected so we didn't have to be. Why is it so hard even as Christians to get over this rejection. It is better to be rejected by man than to be rejected by God. Once we've accepted Jesus into our heart we will never be rejected again. Every time of rejection is really a lie from the pit of hell. God deliver us from the lies of the enemy!!

just had to tell you about today. we were out of town. maybe some of you know leroy jenkins. he is a preacher faith healer..GOD heals when he prays for people. i think it was a great service. i have not felt the presence of GOD like that is a long time. maybe 40 yrs. when you see poeple walk after being in a wheel chair..it will make you feel like .well i can not express how it made me feel. words seem not to be able to explain it..he could tell people what was wrong with them without anyone telling him,.he was not told before hand. we were there before anyone else was there..i think that it was a day to remember...GODS presence and the feelings that it gives you. will help you climb the mountain when you are in the valley..the power of GOD fell and my my. you that know what i am talking about knows what i mean... i got full and got a 2nd helping..hope your week will be bright.may this year be your year to shine. everyone of you are in out thoughts and prayers each night.MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU AND MAY HIS LIGHT SHINE UPON YOU..

Wow Don I miss that I have to go so far to get to one of those, I went to Omaha a 6 jpir drove. to a Joyce Meyer meeting last spring, I need to do that again, intering in to the prayer room was like walking in to the presences of God, I certainly understand how words cam not express just how great that is. thank you for sharing, it brings back some great memories.

Cheri, I noticed the time of your post. Why weren't you able to sleep? Because of your heel pain or because of your husband.
Father right now I bring my friend Cheri before you. Please heal her heel and bring her peace about all the emotions she's feeling. Heal her hurts Lord and wrap your arms around her to feel your love. Bring a special friend to her in this dry and desolate land. Even tho she doesn't like where she is physically, emotionally and maybe spiritually Lord I ask you will help her to praise you in the midst of all this. Bless my friend with joy in her heart and to realize how she's not only loved by you but all of us here. In Jesus name. Amen

You know there needs to be a retrive button on this Reply box. I just wrote the best monologue, and it is all gone.
I need to get to bed now, so I will just repeate my prayer

<span class="ev_code_PURPLE">what I have forgiven... has been for your sakes... to keep Satan from getting the advantage over us; for we are not ignorant of his wiles and intentions. - 2 Corinthienas 2 10'11</span>

Forgiveness, and Resentment wipe eachother out. I pray we will all be on the Forgivness side, throwing old resentments in to the sea of forgetfullness, and seeking the face of God, so we can all live in the Kingdom of God,
"Ritiousness, Peace, and Joy in the Holly Goast, thats the Kingdom of God"
Paul praised God standing in a prison cell hip deep in sewage, we can praise God in our growing pains. What He has done for others He will do for us, Paul walked out of that prison, through open gates, and will can walk free, through Jesus Christ, for it is ritiousness, we can put on and stand before God, with out petition, Help me Oh God! for I am week and without you I can do nothing, but with you I can change my world. Awmen!

Thank you Barb, for your wonderfull prayer, and comfort. God Bless you

Tonight I am Greatfull for God's strength, I have never been so at peace, I am so thankfull for all of your prayers, and God's Love through you, Thank You I can't express how much I thank you. This growing pain, is passing, I still need the strength to understand it, for it is so forign to me, but I have Faith bigger than ever.

Draw Your Strength from God Lern to quickly follow the inner promptings of the Holy Spirit. Come apart with Him privately before you come apart publicly, Spend time with God by talking to Him and reading His Word. so you can remain stable as you deal with the daily affairs of life. joyce Meyer Jan.11

So many time this calender has what I need to hear that day and this is a prime example all through this growing pain, this calender has been just what I need. I wonder if the universe is in a special place, that everyone needs strength just now.

I pray Strength to all of you and prais God for his wisdom, and magisty, I know He is the Strongest, and only waites for us to ask him to show up strong for us.

<span class="ev_code_PURPLE">In conclusion, be strong in the Lprd [be empowered through your union with Him]; draw your strength from Him [that strength which His boundless might provides]. - Ephesians 6;10- amp</span>
