When have you waited for an answer to a long-held prayer?
Waiting on a long time prayer???
Now!!! God gave me a promise about 30 years ago in a church service I think in a Mother’s Day service that my sons would be saved. My oldest son has just started going to church, YAY. Thank You Jesus, Praise the Lord. My youngest son still needs to know Jesus and get saved into the Kingdom of Our Lord and Savior.
Waiting is not Wasted Time! Amen 🙏🏻 Amen
When have you felt deeply connected to God's love?
I have always had a connection with God. But over this past year, something has changed inside of me and I have craved a deeper and stronger relationship with the Lord. For the first time in my life (I’ll be 57 in a couple of weeks) I’ve read my Bible. I’m almost done and I plan to start reading it over again. I feel like I need to know more. I finally have the connection that I have always wanted.
When have you felt deeply connected to God's love?
When I first started to consistently read my bible and study the word everyday. It started just before I left for my internship and while there have been some low times, I really feel like he has let me go through this internship with a loving guidance to see things He has planned in my future.
I remember that one of the fruits of the spirit is long suffering and if I have the Spirit, I have Jesus and what ever I am waiting on will be given to me in due time, in God’s will.
how many of you feel like God might be ignoring your prayers? I feel so spiritually stagnant and unheard. I feel like God dosent want me to feel peace, but deep down I know that’s not true. I just pray he continues working in my life..
When have you felt deeply connected to God's love?
This entire year. Through all the trials and tribulations. He love for me has remained. He reminds me daily how luckily I’am to be in his light and grace. Given the free gift of enteral life.
Do you believe the Israelites were wrong to complain in the desert?
No one because complaining itself isn’t the issue. It was the way and manner and turning to idols and longing to go back to the former life versus trusting in Him to bring them into the promised land. Throughout scripture He shows us not to look back when we’re promised to revive greater. Lot’s wife looked back too; turned to salt; Job complained righteously. Seeking answers and understanding from Him. Long winded; but no we’re going to complain because we don’t understand His ways; use it as fuel to grow closer to Him for answers and keep faith and trust in Him.
When have you felt deeply connected to God's love?
When I felt the urge to surrender my frustrations to him. For he takes all burdens from me when I get overwhelmed with my kids, or when I have too much on my mind in a short amount of time. He is so gentle with his yolk, and his burden is so soft for him taking in all that we give him. It gives me a beautiful sense of comfort knowing his love will always be with me.
When have you felt deeply connected to God's love?
I would say a few times tbh in my life it’s not a butterfly reflect bust most of the time is when I’m at true peace, when I don’t feel stress, I don’t feel tired, I feel happy, I feel motivated sometimes it feels like a little reality of what heaven feels like with no pain no rain no frustration just love, do I get that feeling A lot no, but as it states in scripture walking down the narrow path is not meant to be easy, so with that I feel we are always deeply connected to Gods love during any season we go thru just sometimes we don’t realize it.
Pray for all who walk in the righteous path to have full.
understanding from the Lord, no suffering, no pain. Pray for our lost loved ones to find their way to Jesus. The Way. The Truth.
I think it’s hardest to love my neighbour when they hurt me, misunderstand me or make it difficult for me to show kindness. But I’m learning that loving others isn’t just about how they treat me, it’s about reflecting the love and grace God shows me every day. Even when it’s difficult, I want to choose love over frustration.
What challenge are you facing that feels like a wilderness?
Selling my houses has been a nightmare of extra expenses, greedy people, and an unrelenting illness. Too sick, too trusting, and belief that others have Tre same ethics I do. Either I’m going to be homeless when this is all over because all my profits will have been taken, or I’m saving a huge lawsuit that might drag on for tears. And invite meantime all I have to live in is my monthly SS check…but… GOD’s got this! And I’ll keep holding on. I’m not brat by Satan and his powers yet!
