The History: A couple of years ago, I started journaling my prayers and God's responses to them. I told my friends about this, they were really interested. I told my Pastor about it and he said, how about sharing those on line. When I asked God, He said, my words are for you, but not just for you. And, here we are...I hope He speaks to you in these words.

Blankets...


My prayer:

Awesome Father. More than usual, I need your favor and your wisdom. We are walking into a make or break situation (at least it seems that way) tomorrow at work and I know from experience that with your favor, it will all go smoothly. Without your favor, it will blow up in a disaster. I pray and ask for your favor which you are so generous with. Thank you for your help tomorrow (and always).

I also need your wisdom. There appears to be a choice coming in my life and there seems to be equal but different rationale for choosing each side. Help me to make the right choice. Open the doors you want open for me and shut the doors you want shut. I pray for your will in my life.

Thank you for being my ever present help God.

What God Said Tonight:

Blankets have many different uses. You can cover up with them, sure. But you can also fold them up and use them as a a cushion to kneel on. You can also spread them out and have a picnic on them. You can use them as a towel. You can use them to make a fort out of them. 

Your life, your talents, all that you are can be used in many different ways. No one greater than the other and all useful in their right time. Just because you have found great success and satisfaction in one use of your talents, does not mean that there are not other uses. 

You have been more open to change, to the new things. Stay open. My opportunities for you may not always seem usual but they will always be for your good. 

I love you and I will guide you in all that you do. I will favor you, always. I will love you for eternity.

Evergreens and aspen...

My prayer:

Thank you God for your healing power and all of the people you healed tonight! I love seeing you do your thing! Thank you as well for giving your people such generous hearts. One of my favorite things is to see your children acting like children of God, loving and providing for others. We don't always get it right but once in awhile we do and it is beautiful.

There is one more thing I would like to ask for before the day is done. God, I pray for a heart of thanksgiving in me and in all your children. It is so easy for us to get focused on what we don't have and that next big thing that we often lose sight of the blessings that you have for us right now. I ask for a heightened awareness and appreciation for your right now blessings in our lives. 

Thank you Jesus!

What God Said Tonight:

Evergreens are unusual in that they do not change nearly as much as other trees. They stay green all year. They produce pine cones to reproduce. They are sturdy and stable. But, when you go on your hikes, how often do you look at an evergreen and say, "wow, what a beautiful tree." You don't. But the aspen, trees that change dramatically with each season, you see them and can't get enough of their beauty. You make special holiday trips just to look at them. 

There is something about things that are stable and unchanging that make it more difficult for you to recognize and appreciate them. It is not a right or wrong thing, it just is. 

I never change. I am , always. So, if you are going to appreciate me and the things that I do, you will have to make an effort. It may not come naturally all the time. Just as you walk through the evergreens, hoping to find an aspen grove, you walk through your life with me on the look out for the miracle. The miracles are great and beautiful but the everyday things I do for you, that don't change and are always there, those things are good too. 

Take time to appreciate the evergreens in your life. I love you.

Problems don't last forever...


My prayer:

I am so grateful to be at the tail end of this week God. It was a tough one and I made it only because of your mercy, grace and strength in my life. Thank you for everything. I have had a lot to say all week. I think it is time for me to be quiet and just listen. What is on your mind tonight God?

What God Said Tonight:

The problems in this world are very transient. They seem monumental at times but they are only for a moment, for a season. My joy is everlasting. My peace passes all understanding. My love is forever. 

Problems, pain, these things come but they also go. They are not from me. They are from the enemy and he is not the author of life so everything he creates dies. It is only here for a season. Every thing I create stands and does not change. 

I am yours, now and forever.

Prison...


My prayer:

Thank you for a fun end to a long day God. You always bring me little jewels of joy. Some days, I live for those jewels. 

I am letting stress get to me again. I don't know why it is a problem again but I ask for your help and your peace in me. You are the only one who can help me when I get like this. Even now, I am reliving all of the failures of the day and making myself crazy with it. 

Thank you Father for your help.

What God Said Tonight:

I have come to set you free. I have come for your freedom. I have freed you from sin and the results of it. I have freed you from a world system that is meant to destroy you. And, I have freed you from your own self imposed judgement. 

I have opened the gate on every one of those prisons over you, but you must walk through the gate if you are going to experience life outside of he prison. What good is it to be free if you stay living in the prison? Get up and walk out. Don't stay where you are. Come out and find your new perspective and your new freedom. 

There is a whole world waiting for you out here. 

I love you.

What I know to do...


My prayer:

Thank you for restoration God. Thank you for finding what was lost. It meant so much to me. 

Thank for hearing and responding to my relentless prayers. There was nothing else I could do but pray so I literally prayed without ceasing. I was probably pretty annoying. Thank you for listening anyway. 

You are so very good to me!

What God Said Tonight:

You did what you knew to do. You came to your Father. 

You don't ever need to apologize for coming to me. I love you. I am here for you. My help is freely available to you. I will never hold back my love or my help. I am a good Father who wants to see you blessed. I am a good Father who will see you grow. 

I love you and I am yours, now and forever.

Agreement...


My prayer:

I have found that when I wish for or want things or for certain circumstances, you often bring them to me, but they are almost never as I imagined them. I find much more joy, peace and contentment in resting in your will for my life. The excitement, success and joy that comes from that simple change is remarkable. God, I pray that your will always come before mine. Always.

What God Said Tonight:

I have a will for you but it is often not so different from your will for yourself. What is glorious is when our wills naturally come into agreement. That is when the miracles happen. That is when great things are released. 

I am all about agreement, relationship, love. I do not want to rule over your life as a tyrant. I want to comfort, guide and help you. I want us to know each other so well that our will and desires become the same. 

When you, of your own free will, choose my will, not just because it is my will but because it is your will too, when we come into full agreement...wow! 

I love you. I appreciate your obedience. I covet your agreement.

Heart of a man...


My prayer:

Another night where I find my self happy and content in your presence. Today was relaxing and wonderful. Tonight was awesome to see you touching so many lives. And now, all that is left of the day is to spend some quiet time with you, which is the BEST part of any day.

What God Said Tonight:

You have eyes to see and you are seeing what lies beneath the surface of things. You are seeing that sometimes what is underneath is more beautiful than what is seen out in the open. Other times, it is not. Other times what is behind the obvious is brutal and ugly. 

I look at the heart of a man. I see the intent. I see what is behind each decision and action. I know you through your heart and your intent. I know you to the very depth of you. 

I will show you these truths around  you. With that truth, you can see the pain and minister directly to it. With that understanding you can bypass all of the things people surround themselves with to protect, and move right in to where the healing is needed. 

This knowledge, this sight, comes with great responsibility. It must always be used with the gloves of love on. You must always approach it with love. Anything less can cause great damage. 

I love you. Use the gift well.
