"Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind and a thankful heart." __Colossians 4:2
This week our study on campus was about the "Assurance of Answered prayer" and I encouraged the girls to take to God whatever is on their hearts. He wants us to ask of Him, He hears and answers our prayers. So I too am going to do just that tonight. I am going to lay before my Father's feet my heart's request:
" Father, you are great and mighty. You are the King of kings an the Lord of lords. If I have unconfessed sin in my heart, Lord you will not answer me, so Jesus, please forgive me, cleanse me and I will be clean. I am grateful for your blood that you've shed so I could be forgiven and not condemned. Master, here is what's on my heart, I want to lift up my brother who is being deployed to Afghanistan. Would you please keep him and bring him back healthy and unharmed. Protect him from emotional and mental harm as well. I pray for him even now as he prepares to go. Please keep him in perfect peace. Please draw his heart back to you. Please keep his family. Oh Lord, we trust in you for my brother and we thank you because you love him more than we do.
"Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all He has done."
___Philippians 4:6
