The Heart

Today's message was one that was really of my heart.
Something that's on my heart, and something that really spoke to me, that just gave me a silent and quiet conviction to carry on.

Faith Hope and Love. Wow....

I really dont think I'm particularly gifted at anything. Maybe that was one of reasons (although wrong) that I initially had for praying. Since i couldnt get anything right, I might as well humble myself and pray for people. But it was a whirlwind ride ever since. To see things I have never seen before, to hear things, to learn, to experience grace, to hunger to know God more. Its been exciting.

'Teach me how to pray.' And he really answered beyond my wildest dreams. Soon that dreams became a desire to see other people pray and desire to know God. To pray even for people who arent saved. The heart expands when you desire to know God better. Only by his grace.

To BOB: I'd rather see my cell group be on fire for God rather than being on fire for activities, for that matter of fact on fire for each other. That really is my heartfelt prayer for you guys.

To J (you know who you are): Since God has showed you his direction you, it's gonna be an exciting journey for you even though u might be leaving. God has really answered my prayers for you and I'm really happy and thankful for that. Continue to walk with him. God uses the flawed and seriously melancholic people like us! Have faith!

I struggle with prayer. The discipline to pray and seek God on a REALLY regular basis. To have the correct heart even when praying for supplication or interceding for people. To always put God at the focus of it all. Its hard, but I believe that God will give me the strength to do it.

Right now, i'm feeling like David when he wrote Psalm 27. Its something that will stay with me for a while. And i shall wait. Blessed be Your Name
