The Power of Prayer & Devotion

I want to share this with you all...

Jeremiah 29:12 & 13 says, Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.

Isn't that an awesome promise? God says "I will listen to you". He hears ours prayers...and answers them. He promises that if we seek Him with our whole being...He will make himself manifest. Awesome!! I just had to share that with you...it seems that God has really been trying to reveal to me lately that if I seek him whole-heartedly I will find Him...and prayer...I have read so many things on prayer in the last week and when I read this familiar verse this morning...it really stuck out, especially after last nights Bible study & a situation this weekend with my car, that God hears. PRAISE GOD!!! It is becoming more apparent to me that God is shaping us all at this specific time! Right now! We have been studying so much about being refined in the fire and building character...and it's happening! I notice it in our fellowship together, our prayers, and the love that is shared between us all. God is so good!!

I hope you, my dear friend, have an extra-ordinary day today!
God Bless!

Praise God Elizabeth! God IS working right now more than ever to refine our hearts. I feel it, I know it! I was so blessed to pray with you last night and talk this a.m. I'll be praying for you throughout the day and please pray for me too. Thanks so much for your friendship and love!!

"There is no danger that the Lord will neglect the prayers of His people. The danger is that in temptation and trial they will become discouraged, and fail to persevere in prayer." {COL 175.1}

OK, so I am reposting this quote a second time, but it is definately something to keep in mind.
