1 Thessalonians 5:17 "Pray without ceasing"

 

There is a popular saying "When life knocks you down you are in the perfect position to pray". As for me, with my spiritual growth over the years, I find myself praying and fellowshiping with God more frequently throughout the day. So, I like to think in terms of "when life knocks you down you are in the perfect position to PRAY HARDER".

 

I'm from Vicksburg, MS but I live in Houston, TX. I've driven back and forth several times in which the first few times my GPS took me several different ways; however, my destination remained the same and I eventually made it. With that being said, everyone has a different walk with Christ and a different path laid out for them that should ultimately lead us all to the same destination. Do not let life's challenges discourage you, continue to pray for God's direction and discernment trusting that everything will be fine.

 

With so many things going on in the world today it is imperative to look to the Father with humility and gratitude in whatever situation we are in. HE is the creator of ALL things which means He also controls all things we just have to step back and let Him do it. The fact that we are still here shows that He favors us and has purpose for our lives, for that I am humbled and grateful. Grace and Mercy has surely followed me all the days of my life! With planes disappearing, children dying, oil spilling, land sliding, fires burning uncontrollably, and etc. I will continue to pray, praise, and worship because that is all God asks of me.
