Surprised no longer...

Last week God really did some awesome things in my life so I was asking Godly men that I know and love to pray for me and the ministry God has called me to. I have talked with different people and asked for their prayers and all were very kind to do so. Not only to keep me in their prayers but to pray for me for 30 straight days. Maybe that is a lot to ask but I feel in my life I need Godly men and woman who will pray for me on a daily basis. Maybe for those of you that read this blog you can pray for me 365 days, God knows I need it. I was talking with a friend at the end of last week and told him I needed his prayers for 30 straight days. He kind of laughed and said, "I already pray for you everyday so is there anything specific I can pray for?" I really couldn't believe that someone out there prays for me every single day. So I decided to clarify. No I don't think you understand I need your prayers everyday for 30 straight days. Then he decides to clarify. "I already pray for you EVERY SINGLE DAY BY NAME!!" I was speechless. I had never heard anyone ever say that to me before.

Over the weekend I have been thinking a lot about what was said to me. I think it is amazing that people go to God on a regular basis for me. Not only just praying for me but saying my name to God and asking him to do certain things in my life. I have often said, "I can't believe that God would bless me this much!" Well if people like you are out there praying for people like me on a daily basis I am surprised no longer. Scripture continues this theme of Godly men and women lifting up people in prayer, and how God can do so much more than we can ask. So it would be foolish of me to say again that I am surprised that God does what he does in my life. With people lifting me up in prayer I am not surprised. God does what he does best when those whom he loves prays for people like me. So to those who have ever said anything to God about me, THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!
