Well where do I start ? This is my first ever attempt at a blog ever. Not bad for a technophobe lol.
I joined this site to post a prayer when I was at a very low point in my life. I felt God brought me here for a reason that I did not fully understand. I posted prayers and they all were about me and my situation.. Then I was guided to read other prayers and felt the need to respond to other people. I felt the responses I posted were by far to spiritual and intelligent for me. I soon realised that God was using me to help others. Then my problems were far less important. Of course there were times when I fell backwards a bit and became wrapped up in myself and my life.
Now I am in a new chapter again. I still have problems in my life and I feeI I am not what I would call a yo-yo Christian. When my life is on a high I do not need God. Then when on a low I need God's help again. I HAVE NOW REALISED THAT I NEED GOD DAILY. We all do. I would blame God for my problems and ask why He had left me. How satan was fooling me and I allowed myself to be fooled.
I am going through a difficult time right now and I know God is carrying me and holding me close to Him. And when I get out the other side of this trial in my life I can give God all the praise he deserves as without God bringing me to where I am now, then my faith would be weaker. I would slip back into my old ways. My life is good, I do not need God this week. How wrong is that statement !! We all need God everyday with every decision we make. Everything we do and say should be God led, not as in my case, Simon led.
Dear Lord God. Thank you for bringing me to PrayerRequest.com. More importantly thank you for guiding me in my life. For calling me unto you and realising You are the very reason for me being here right now. For putting these words on this screen for me as I would have no idea what to write. Lord I give you praise and thanks for my trials and for them bringing me closer to you. I give you thanks for my children, my home, car and not forgetting my other family members and friends. Help me Lord to be a better person and to grow more in Your ever loving arms. Amen
