I woke up at 3am and remembered that Pastor Darin from Junction City has been bugging me to be up and praying before 5:30 ... He calls it being part of the Early Morning School of Prayer. I guess God wants me to try it to! Time for some self reflection. Terry hurt my feelings and my instinct was to walk away from helping her anymore. Then I wondered if I was just being strong-willed and if I don't get my way I take my marbles and go home attitude. I just know that I need to pray about it. I am also feeling discouraged as people are not coming to prayer groups. Lord help me not to grow weary.
DAILY PRAYERS:
Prayed for 66 members of my family.
Prayed for the Salvation Praying Group to increase to 12 by the end of the year.

Pray for my dear friend Donna every day!
PRAISES AND BLESSINGS:
I am blessed with a wonderful home. I am blessed with nice days to work outside. I am blessed with plenty of food. I am blessed with many friends. I am blessed with a God that loves me more than I can even love myself.
BIBLE READING:
2 Corinthians 6
The very first sentence in verse one tells me that we work with Him (Jesus). We are workers with Him not just for Him. He does not just send us out on an assignment, wishing us luck as we leave. No, moment by moment He is with us as we talk to, share with and love people. And He is with them too! This gives me a great deal of confidence in sharing who He is.
BOOK READING:
"Listening for God" by Marilyn Hontz
She talked about having a "word" for the year. Not sure that would work for me as I would probably forget it too easily. However, her story reminds me that people might know about me from someone else just by my name, so it is best to always try to represent God every day in every way. We just never know who might see God in us in every day situations.
MY CALL TO ACTION TODAY/MY TIME OF SILENCE NOTES:
Today is my day of rest and reflection upon myself and what I do for the Lord. I think I need to really re-evaluate a few things and prioritize them. Good day for lots of prayer.
Have a blessed day.
