Create in Me a Clean Heart

• Psalm 51:7-12 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
  Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.
  Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
  Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
  Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.
  Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.

My prayer is that God would cleanse and renew my dirty and cold heart. My prayer is that God would grant me personal revival that I may see Him high and lifted up. My prayer is that I would desire and righteous "wanter" to want the true will of God and not my distorted perception of it. I want to be willing to pay the price of revival. The enemy is strong against me, but my God has already won the battle!

Lord, help me put on the whole armor of God that I may be able to withstand the wiles of the devil. Lord, help me to crucify my flesh daily that I would not fall so easily to sin. Lord purge my heart that it would bring to my lips love, joy, and praises to your Holy name. I want to serve you with my whole heart, O Lord. Help me to seek you each day. Help me not to grieve your Holy Spirit. Forgive me for my failings. Forgive me for the sins that easily beset me. Grant me repentance, forgiveness, and victory in Jesus Name, I plead! Create in me a clean heart. Amen

Thank You, Lord for Your Patience!

When I was young I did not have difficulty with devotions; I have had hard times as an adult with devotions. For example:
I love the Old Testament. When I was a Christian teen I would sometimes look at the Old Testament figures and think, I would not fall or give up like they did...I would seek God and be strong. I thought, God's people should have figured it out after a few years of wandering the wilderness, not forty! LOL! Now, almost 20 years later, I understand that they were normal people that had everyday struggles with sin. Now I know that the "wilderness" can whip you! I can better relate with the wonderful lessons God gives us in those men and women, and how they overcame when they called upon God after making unwise decisions. God's ways and thoughts are so truly way above mine! And I am sooo glad. Thank you Lord for your patience with me.

Good Missionary?

The most important gift we can give our children is the knowledge and love of our Lord Jesus. There is no one else we as parents should soley depend on, to teach our young ones of our marvelous Saviour; because no one else will love them as much as their momma and daddy. They need to see Christ in our lives as well as from our lips. Deut. 6:7 exemplifies to us that we should teach our precious children God's Word diligently: "when you sit in your house and when you walk by the way and when you lie down and when you rise up." As a young person I wanted to be a foreign missionary, yet God has brought the mission field to my home. I have to ask myself, am I being a good missionary to my 5 precious gifts?

Duh, Where Did She Go?

Can you believe that I forgot that I had a Blog???? Yes, indeed, I did. I found it by reading another's blog and I saw that they were a Blogspot blogger. That was familiar to me, so I tried signing in. It took a couple of tries but I found my "lost to me" blog! So here we go, again. This time I will not forget, I hope!
