Re: Whispers of My Grateful Heart

Will you please pray God will continue to inspire me to write and share Him with many others? Writing brings such joy and peace to my soul...I thank God for this gift He has given me to share. I am humbled that He blesses with His words, as I share my devotionals each week. Please pray for those who will receive the message and discover God is closer than they think.

Re: Whispers of My Grateful Heart

Nan, God has put it in my heart to pray for you every day. I believe that as long as you open your heart to Him, He will use you as His instrument to convey His message of love to your readers. I am praying for not only the message, but also that God will draw more people here to read your devotionals.
I often write my prayers, how would you feel if I posted a prayer for you on Fridays? I don't want to take up your space, but I could do it here in the comments section. It is up to you..in any case, you can be sure that I am praying for you.
God bless you and your readers.

Re: Whispers of My Grateful Heart

Hi Tex,

Thank you for your prayers and faithfulness to God. I would appreciate your prayers and would welcome you to post weekly prayers here. I often pray God will allow others to read the message He would like for them to receive. I pray for others, knowing God knows their situations and their need for encouragement. I pray He will use me to write for Him, and I pray He will open the door so many more will read what is in my heart to share.

Thank you for your faith and friendship on the Blogs. You are an encouragement to others.

Monday 8/17 Prayer for Nan

"Lord, we often see Nan's devotionals here by now. I know how busy life can get with necessary and important things. She has been away on an important trip to encourage her Dad. Thank you for your understanding grace. Our times truly are in your hands.
I pray for Nan, that you would open up some free time for her to reflect on your word without distractions and to allow you to whisper in her ear. Stir her heart to know what your message for her readers should be this week. Inspire her heart and mind, and guide her hands as she types, let her words be your words to us. Assure her that your word will not return to you void, but will accomplish all of your good purposes for her writing.
Bless Nan in her ministry to us. Show her in a special way how meaningful her writings are, to you and to her readers.
And Lord, I pray for us, her readers. Give us open hearts to receive your message.
In Your Son's Name. Amen."

Re: Whispers of My Grateful Heart

Good Morning Tex
Last night I began to write my devotional. I had trouble deciding what I would write, as I sat and prepared my thoughts. I read your prayer, and it opened my heart for God to whisper his message to me. Thank you for words of encouragement. Sometimes I need to be reminded that God leads me in His time, and for His purpose.

Prayer is the powerhouse which binds us all together. I appreciate your prayer and consider there are many others who are in need of being lifted to God. I have thought about adding a Prayer Page, which might include a weekly prayer and also Prayer Requests and concerns. I would be happy if you might consider the possibility of writing prayers, so others might also be strengthened by your requests and praises to God....Will you think about it and let me know?

God bless you in your day ahead....And as you always say to me and Mars, "Have a day that makes you smile!"

Re: Whispers of My Grateful Heart

Nan, thanks again for the devotional thoughts. I especially like where you said "Our lives are worthy is to be celebrated...." I think that is a great thing to believe! We should celebrate God's grace in our lives and our giftedness that is from His loving hands.

I will pray and consider your offer to write prayers. I will let you know.....thank you very much for being so kind and thoughtful.

Have a day that makes you smile!

Re: Whispers of My Grateful Heart

you're welcome...and yes, please do think about writing prayers here...I have been thinking about that for quite some time.

Re: Whispers of My Grateful Heart

Oh...yes, consider if you would want to offer weekly prayers or only occasionally. I would like to think about adding a Prayer Page in the next couple of weeks.
