I love to pray, “Lord, You’ve promised in Your Word to give us Your wisdom. I’m praying for it right now.” Which is another way of saying, “I need to know Your will, Lord. Show me Your will.”
SPEAK:
T.H.I.N.K
IS IT?
TRUE- HELPFUL- INSPIRING- NECESSARY- KIND!!!
The initial reaction to a point of discouragement should be to pause, bow our head and pray "Dear Lord, this isn't working and I feel helpless. I know you are merciful and give us exceeding grace. Please lead, guide, and help me through this situation and show me what to do. Help me Lord, I trust in you! In Jesus name I pray."
Oh, how I have been full of myself at times! I need to watch more, to listen more, to talk less.
