I am alive and well...

Hello dear blogger friends.. I know things have been pretty quiet on here. Moving my blog to my own domain has left my blog kind of quiet. Not as many followers and commenters left me kind of unmotivated. I have lots of things on my heart lately, some things I have thought about blogging about. But life and responsibilities have kept me from sitting down and actually blogging.  By the time I actually have time- I forget what I was going to say. Has anyone had that problem?

The Lord has been laying lots of things heavy on my heart. Most of all is prayer.. How to pray has been my number one question... How do we know that Our heavenly Father hears our prayers? I know that sometimes answered prayer is obvious.. but what about prayers that are not so obvious.( Like for lost souls. ) What about prayers  you pray of protection and guidance for people you know are not believers, does He hears those prayers?? I have not recieved answers to these questions(except one how to pray) but I am still seeking Him.

My heart is to hear His voice and KNOW without any doubt He is with me in everything I do. That I seek His face in all decisions I make.. not go by "feeling" but by the Holy Spirit.. am I making any sense??

Well those are some of the things my mind and heart keeps going over...

What about you- what is heavy on your heart today?

Thank you for stopping by and reading

    I completely understand what you mean by "not go by "feeling" but by the Holy Spirit". My pastor often says this isn't a feeling walk we are on, but a faith walk. I too have some of the same questions you do. I often pray for Him to open my spiritual ears so that when I hear Him, I will know that is Him. On my heart today....so many things, mainly the health of my unborn child and the souls of my lost love ones. Please know after reading your comment on my blog, that I'm praying that God opens your womb. Hugs...

BFS #124 - The Easy Button

Assignment - This week I would like you to post any prayer requests you have. What is going on in your life that you need prayer warriors for? When this assignment came through I was going to share  prayer request for a much needed rental home, and new job for my beloved, but in a blink of an eye those things were no longer a concern. A truly serious, and sobering matter occurred. I was not sure how to share with all of you this matter- and how desperate I was. I was not sure how to even lift my eyes towards heaven for fear that he would not hear me, or not even want what I was wanting.  I was not sure I could handle a loss of my child. My baby- my eldest- He is 18 years old, 6 days ago he started to develop these sharp pains that would shoot to the back of his eyes. At first he described them as a headache, but he realized it was not headache, and started to complain more of the pain, and stated that pain relievers were not working. I made a doctors appointment. When the do...

Goodbye Facebook...Hello thoughts...

Well I did... I took the plunge and deactivated my facebook. It is amazing how much of a time consumer it is. It eats time like you would not believe. I am hoping, praying with this new found time, and lack of distraction that it will give me motivation to blog more. As my young men get older, move closer and closer in considering that step towards becoming one with someone.. I have come to realize there are so many resources out there pointed at men and what they need to do, or what they need to be as men to get married. The sad thing is there is hardly anything for young women. Today I challenge Paul to look at a questionaire done by Stacey and James McDonald( you can find it on Staceys  blog thesacredcalling.com)  that they put together for young suitors for their daughters. After reading it he came down so heavy hearted. Guess the realization of the spiritual, emotional and physical responsibilities of it all became very burdensome. Of course I shared how we could do noth...

Saying "I love you"...

Thinking about these words. These words that are to express our deepest emotions. These words that are to leave us vunerable and open, just do not seem to have the impact they use to. Many people use these words so fleeting. They use them as if to say "thank you", or "I thought about you today". For me "I love you" is not an easy thing to say. If I say I love you- I mean it from way down deep in my heart. They are not just words to be said but also words, that are to be put into action. Have you ever thought about that? When someone says "I love you", do they show through their actions that they love you?  or do they leave you going Huh, really? I have had those thoughts, wondering if the person who has declared their love really does love me because actions speak louder than words to me. I hear their words but then on the other hand see their actions and  they do not act like a person who even cares about my well being. Jesus never states in the...
