Pray, love and give thanks

I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them;
intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them. -1 Timothy 2:1, NLT

I've seen so many people so wrapped up in their politics that they forget that the names they throw out so easily about their opposing party may be hitting a friend directly between the eyes. While there may be differing opinions, we can certainly still respect and love one another. There are so many hurting from such a wide variety of concerns, some very public and others equally private. Let's pray for one another...share our views with respect and love and give thanks for the very differences that give us the creative force to be able to come up with solutions working together, communicating in love and understanding. Make today a better day than yesterday and not nearly as good as tomorrow. God bless you. 

Here I Am Before You Lord

There is so much activity around me these days, sometimes I feel as though I'm in the midst of a whirlwind of good news, uncertainty, tragedy, mishaps and great delights and hillarity. This week has been a mixed bag for certain! Weeks like these leave me seeking a block of time to simply spend on my knees in worship and communion - sorrow, joy - a heart's cry.

"And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead." Revelation 1:17

During times of deep worship it is as though I've touched His garment in the crowd and His peace, joy, love and life have washed over me. I pray this for you today. May you experience a new level of worship, peace, joy and life today as you seek His face.

I hope this helps:http://www.godtube.com/watch/?v=DY667GNX
