Sometimes I Wonder....
What is going on in the world today? Have we forgotten the heart of the Father? Have we forgotten about the love Jesus showed?
Lord, help me to not be so caught up in the technicalities that I miss the heart of the person.
Help me to see the situation through your eyes; from your perspective.
Show me how to love in spite of my fears and bullheaded thinking.
Remind me of the time when I was in a similar situation and how evident your hand was in my life.
Forgive me for being self-righteous and hypocritical for pride's sake.
Teach me the difference between judgment and discernment and cover my mouth so that I may not gossip about either.
Reveal yourself to me in your word so that I may stand firmly on that foundation. I'll drop to my knees when I can no longer stand.
Sustain me until my prayers are answered or until you have given me grace to live without them.
Bring to remembrance that even though I am now wearing these adult shoes that I am still your child in need or training and molding.
Thank you for choosing me. Thank you for loving me. Thank you, Father.
I just want to praise you for all of my days and bless your heart in so many ways.
You are loving, amazing, kind, giving, patient, strong, good, encouraging, comforting, mighty, and inspiring.
And because you are.... I Am.

You show that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.2 Corinthians 3:3

Thank you for this today, Amy! I was just asking the Lord for forgiveness as I have been judgemental toward a sister in Christ. Her recent hardship has reminded me that none of us is perfect, and that I need to love her where she is instead of trying to make her more like me. Bless you today!!
Amen Sister! Amen . . .
what a great post to start off the week!
Perfect timing for all of us...I know for me it was.
Great job Amy!
"Forgive me for being self-righteous and hypocritical for prides sake.

. . . LOVE THOSE LINES. I agree with the others: This is the perfect devotional to begin the week.
Thank you!
