On this TGIF Friday ( Thank God I'm Forgiven Friday) I pray we can remember why we are here and live this out.
My dear friend Kim Fogle sent this to me and I love it so much I had to share it.:
Dear God,
The Battle feels intense some days. We get tired and weak, weary and worn,. It's hard to keep going in the Face of Defeat. But help us to remember that you will never leave us, that you're our refuge and our strength, an ever present help in trouble. We know that the enemy wouldn't be fighting so hard against us, if we weren't making a difference for your kingdom. He wouldn't be trying so hard to stop us, if he didn't think you had so much good still in store. Remind us that the battle belongs to you, and whatever we're up against can be taken down in one fail swoop by your mighty hand. Help us to trust you more, to never waste time spinning our wheels and wrestling or fighting in our own strength. Please forgive us Lord for the times we've failed to lift our hands to you, for the days we've forgotten to come to you first. Fill us with the power of your Holy Spirit this day. Fill us with your joy, full us with your wisdom and discernment, fill us with constant reminders that your presence will go with us and you will give us rest.
So my friends...
Let's take in every moment as a gift from the Lord... He will wipe our tears one day and make all things new... We must remain faithful to Him with every moment He's given us on this earth!!!
Amen!
