Just wait.



I have been praying a lot lately, and I realized something...


God doesn't just answer with a loud booming voice from the clouds, (Though, that would be cool, I mean, can you imagine talking to God?) He closes and opens doors, He won't talk to you through a burning bush. (Again, that would be cool.) Sure, it takes awhile to know if He is saying Yes or No, but just keep praying, keep Faith, He will answer! (Just not through a burning bush or a loud booming voice coming from the clouds. ;) ) Just wait.



Short post, I know, but I just really needed to post this...


Also, I wanted to use this verse. Haha! ...Maybe I should make a memory verse page? Oooh! I should do that! (Now I feel like I'm talking to myself. Hah!)

---------------------------------




New International Version (NIV)


9 “This, then, is how you should pray:


“‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us today our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.’
Matthew 6:9-13 (NIV)

Almost the end of August... :(



Well guess what? It’s the 16th... Almost the 20th, and if you go to the 20th then fast forward 10 days after... That would be the 30th, then a couple days later... the 1st, then the 2nd...Then the 3rd... How come months are so short? Or maybe it only feels that way... I don’t know. But summer’s almost over and I don’t know what to do. I mean, I can’t wait for Thanksgiving, Christmas and Halloween and all those, but it just goes by so fast, and no matter what you do you can’t slow it down... I’ve realized lately that most of my days are spent worrying about the future, and I never enjoy the day I have...I don’t know why I do that, really, I don’t, it just kind of happens, and I have no way to stop it, and what I really don’t understand is why I can remember one of the verses that I memorized (it helps me stay calm) when I’m happy and not nervous, then when I become nervous, and I take my eyes off Jesus, I can’t remember the verse anymore, I try so hard to remember it, but my mind is blank... Wait, I think I might of answered my own question... The reason I can’t remember those verses, is because my brain makes me take my eyes off Jesus and makes me focus on whatever I’m afraid of...






Anyways, I kind of branched off into other subjects,


but I think you get the point. ;) Now for a quick song then the verse of the day!






- Don’t let it slip on by - Finding Favour -





Even though that’s my first time putting a video on here... I think I did good. :)

Verse of the day!:







New American Standard Bible (NASB)





How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked,
Nor stand in the path of sinners,
Nor sit in the seat of scoffers!
But his delight is in the law of the Lord,
And in His law he meditates day and night. Psalm 1-2 (NASB)
