About Me

My photo
Hi I am a Christian, a nurse, the mother of two grown children and two grand daughters, one grandson, and 3 dogs. I love people and have a huge heart. So why am I blogging? Well I've been told that I need to publish my writings. This seemed to be the easiest way to do that. Also, I want to get out there and live life to the fullest. Empty nests are great because now I get to explore the world. I'm starting right here on my computer. So come along with me and as I learn to fly we'll soar together!

09/18/09 prayer


The world is full of precious tender people that are so starving for hope and love and comfort.
My heart just goes out to them and my arms just want to wrap around them and fill them with Your love.
Oh Father I know that You are the only thing that can give them hope, You are the only comfort and the only love that will fill the emptiness in our lives.
You are what we long for and desire above all else though we are all so unaware of just how much.

Lord bring Your Spirit and fill us up with Your loving kindness show us Your heart – reveal Yourself to us – open our eyes to Your glory honor and majesty.

Gracious Almighty King of all - tear the veil that is before us so that we might see Your majesty and be swept away in a tidal wave of desire to know You.
Only You are worthy of our worship and praise.  Let us see the idols in our lives that we have erected, show us the error of our ways so that we can lay them at Your feet.
Give us a hunger and thirst for Your righteousness and allow Your Spirit to work out Your will in our lives.

Help us to escape from religious rules and regulations that only condemn and weigh us down.  Show us that the only path to You is the path of love and trust that is the one that Jesus walked.  Help us Oh Lord of hosts to simply live in Your love.  Give us eyes that see You, hearts that feel Your love, and spirits that know Your peace because we know You Lord.
Let us abide in, linger with, pause and be in Your presence.  Make our hearts Your dwelling place.  For we know that in dwelling within us we are cleansed and made whole from Your Spirit and not from our own works.  Give us the strength to obey but let it be out of love for You.

You have made the way.  You have laid the path before us.  You have supplied everything we need.  You have shown us the way.  You have paid the price and made the reservations.
Therefore Great God of all, I ask You to direct us towards that path, open our hearts to Your love and Your will, light the way for our stumbling feet and allow us to come to You.

Abba we love you.
