Do you dare to ask?

live love and pray — Wed, 15 May 2013 15:59:52 +0000

When was the last time you asked God to do something impossible, something out of the ordinary? I believe that one reason we don’t see God do great things is because we only ask Him for small things. Most people pray over their food, pray for protection, or pray for wisdom. That’s all good, but don’t limit what God can do. There should be something you’re praying about, something that you’re asking for that is beyond you, something that you can’t accomplish in your own strength. Do you dare to ask?

Your dreams may look impossible. You don’t have the funding or the connections, but God is saying,

“I dare you to ask Me to bring it to pass. I dare you to ask Me to show you a flood of My favor.”

My Prayer

Dear God,

There is nothing like the feeling of being loved!

You created us to love and be loved.

I thank you for all the love you have given me and shown me throughout all my days.

Thank you for all the special touches and blessings that let me know you care about even the smallest details of my life and that you love me no matter what.

Thank you for friends who are there for me…

and that I can be there for…through the seasons of life.

Thank you for the love of parents and children and extended family.

I am grateful for the love in my life.

I pray that every person will experience love…especially your unending

. . . . . far-reaching

. . . . . peace-bringing

. . . . . merciful

. . . . . and unconditional love.

This I pray and offer my whole-hearted love and thankfulness.

Amen.

‘Live each day as if it’s your last’

live love and pray — Tue, 09 Apr 2013 19:24:45 +0000

‘Live each day as if it’s your last’, that was the conventional advice, but really, who had the energy for that? What if it rained or you felt a bit glandy? It just wasn’t practical. Better by far to simply try and be good and courageous and bold and to make a difference. Not change the world exactly but the bit around you. Go out there with your passion. Work hard at something. Change lives through art maybe. Cherish your friends, stay true to your principles, live passionately and fully well. Experience new things. Love and be loved, if you ever get the chance.

Rewards

live love and pray — Tue, 12 Mar 2013 12:38:09 +0000

The important thing is not to be bitter over life’s difficulties.

Learn to let go of the past and recognize that everyday won’t be sunny.

And if you find yourself lost in darkness and despair,

remember – it is only in the black of the night that you can see the stars

and those stars will lead you back home.

So don’t be afraid to make mistakes, to stumble, to fall.

Because most of the time,

the greatest rewards come from doing things that scares you the most.

Prayer is fulfilled as being

‎

Prayer begins as talking.

Prayer matures as not-talking.

Prayer blossoms as listening.

Prayer is fulfilled as being.

Valentine

live love and pray — Thu, 14 Feb 2013 05:16:05 +0000

if there were no words
no way to speak
i would still hear you
if there were no tears
no way to feel inside
i’d still feel for you

and even if the sun refused to shineeven if romance ran out of rhymeyou wuld still have my heart until the end of time
you’re all i need, my love, my Valentine.

all of my life
i have been waiting for
all you give to me
you’ve opened my eyes
and shown me how to love unselfishly

i’ve dreamed of this a thousand times before
in my dreams i couldn’t love you more
i will give you my heart
until the end of time
you’re all i need, my love, my Valentine

and even if the sun refused to shine
even if romance ran out of rhyme
you would still have my heart until the end of time
’cause all i need is you, my Valentine
you’re all i need, my love, my Valentine….

“Valentine”

serenity

live love and pray — Wed, 16 Jan 2013 13:41:06 +0000

Dear God,

Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change

the courage to change the things I can,

and the wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time;

Enjoying one moment at a time;

Accepting hardship as the pathway to peace.

Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it.

Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His will;

That I may be reasonably happy in this life,

and supremely happy with Him forever in the next.

Amen.
