I Pray

Sep 11, 2016

When I don't know what to pray for, it's usually because I don't feel worthy to

ask for anything for myself, or else I have so many difficulties I don't know where to start

in prayer. When I get in these moods I pray for others. Somehow praying for others is

easier for me.

When I don't know what to pray, I still pray. I talk to the Holy Spirit and ask Him to pray for

me because my mind is muddled and I don't know what to pray for.

"In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to

pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans." Romans 8:26.

My roommate is doing his best to distract me as I write this blog. She makes fun of me

when I pray and she thinks I am praying. I corrected her that I am attempting to write a

blog. The teasing lessened somewhat, but no matter.

Lord I lift this roommate up to you. Something is wrong; I have no idea what problems

she has when someone is busy writing, why she has to disrupt and antagonize and

distract me. But you know what is wrong. Find a way to reach her heart Father. Make

her be still. Let her hear your voice or the touch of your hand upon her heart.

I am a born again Christian since age 9. Yes, I really understood and knew what I was doing

when I was baptized. I am going through a rough time. Sometimes that is what this life is.

But the best is yet to come. The most important thing that my grandparents gave me in my

growing up was reinforcing my faith in Jesus Christ and how important that relationship is.

That is why I feel that I had the advantage over other children and teens that did not have

their faith reinforced. Advantage meaning, I think it makes me a stronger person, more sure

of what I should do or not do. It has helped me to make the proper friends. Sometimes my

friends have not been so many. But the ones I have had were good people. Not all my

friends have been Christian. Some were "searching" and "lost," yet I remained myself (in

Christ) when talking to them. Some ignored me, thought I was talking silly stuff, but some

of my words and beliefs stayed with a few of them because they told me so. I like

encouraging others to be the very best they can be "in Christ Jesus." I am a very frail

creature in and of myself, but in Christ Jesus, he has helped me overcome some very

difficult and painful things. Sometimes I speak of them on here. More often, I come here to

pray for other people. In the past, I used to whine to God in my prayers. When I began to

thank him first, for His many blessings in my life (and I would list them), he began to work

even more in my life. I needed help moving. He helped me with that. I needed someone to

buy my home because I was going to lose it anyway, and it would be better to have someone

take over payments. God helped me with that too. I never talked to my pastor very much. I

felt compelled to talk to him about me losing my home--I asked him if he knew of anyone in

the Congregation that needed to buy a home of their own. And someone did need a home.

I lost my former home. God helped me find a smaller home. My list goes on. I don't want to

bore you. God does care about the small things. Really think about the intricate nature and

beauty of the world. He is the ultimate creator and artist of all that beauty. Molecules, atoms,

et cetera. He is Great! The Great I Am.
