Prayer
My daily reading in Streams in the Desert is Genesis 24:15. Its the story of Abrahams servant going to find a bride for Isaac. He prays that God would reveal her to him and then this is what the verse says "Before he had finished praying he saw a young woman named Rebekah".
Before he had finished Praying God had heard and answered his prayer. I like that and I'm glad I serve a God that hears and answers prayer. Jesus says in John 16:23 "My Father will give you whatever you ask for in my name". Its good to rise in the morning having confidence in a God who is my Father who loves His children and wants to give them good things.
Prayer is a powerful thing and James tells us we have not because we ask not. I don't know about you but I'm asking a lot of God and I'm believing He will be true to His word and bring me through this valley. He will not fail me, He will not forsake me, I am His child and He loves me. I'm holding on to that.
Its my day off so I have an appointment, I'm away yo climb a mountain and meet with Dad. I'll tell ya about it tomorrow, by the way all those Prayer requests, I entered them in a book, their coming with me so expect your answer.
Love yas

Thanx, Phil - I knew you had taken on board to pray for Ella 'cos she got the all clear with her hand at the hospital!
Did you see last night's rainbow? I've never seen so many in such a short space of time, and I'm pretty sure that they're all for you - it occurred to me when I saw the rainbow last night that God really thinks something of you. And so do I. Love you. xo
Hi Uncle Philip
Isn't it fab to know that God is on our side, and loves us NO MATTER WHAT! He never promised an easy road all the way but He DID promise never to leave us nor forsake us, He's cheering us on the whole way.
Thanks so much for your blogs and your honesty. You have spoken to me more than you will ever realise and I love you so much. I feel blessed to have you as my uncle!(You're some guy)
Anyway, see you on Sunday.
Hugs and kisses xo
P.S. I hope you got yourself that good pair of walking shoes before going out today. Blisters aren't pleasant!
