THOUGHT FOR TODAY
I asked for wisdom...
And God gave me problems to solve.
I asked for prosperity...
And God gave me brains and the strength to work.
I asked for courage...
And God gave me danger to overcome.
I asked for love...
And God gave me troubled people to help.
I asked for favors...
And God gave me opportunities.
I received nothing I wanted.
I received everything I needed.
My Prayer has been answered.

It’s a bit overwhelming to think that women in over 170 countries will be praying together today. One thing I know, maybe two is that prayer works and there is never a wasted prayer.
There are times we think our prayers go unanswered but maybe the answer was no and maybe the answer is to wait. God’s timing is not our timing. He answers every prayer just not always the way we want, but his timing is perfect. All things work together for the good.
They say that tomorrow we’ll begin to warm up here. We’ll be climbing out of the deep freeze and warm up into the 40’s. With that we may see some snow showers changing to rain! Take good care everyone!
I hope you all have a FANTASTIC Friday !
COUNTING MY GIFTS
If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is thank you, it will be enough.
Meister Eckhart
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
3646. for prayers, they are always answered.
3647. for God’s timing, it is perfect
3648. for dinner out tonight with DS#5 and his family, the first of my birthday celebrations
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
PRAYER FOR OUR TROOPS
Please pray for God's protection of
our troops and HIS wisdom for their
commanders.
Almighty and eternal God,
Protect our military
as they discharge their duties
with the shield of your strength,
may the power of your love
enable them to return home in safety
that with all who love them
they may ever praise you for your loving care.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT’s
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
GOD BLESS YOU ALL!
ADVICE FOR TODAY
Prayer should be the key of the day and the lock of the night.
George Herbert
A little smile, a word of cheer,
A bit of love from someone dear…
Love,

So true that prayer works and often we don't see the end results of it for years down the road and then we start piecing together things and realize when we first started praying that prayer, God was already working on answering it. His timing is always the best indeed!
