ALL I NEED IS YOU!

God-Doesnt-Want-Something-From-Us

It’s hard for us to understand someone who keeps on giving, without expecting something in return.  We have grown accustomed to a selfish, me-motivated world.

Unfortunately as soon as we leave God out of the equation, we fail to come up with the right answers for the most difficult tests in life.  Maybe our prayers aren’t being answered right away.  We might not be getting the answers we want.  We may be asking for things that would bring us pain.  Isn’t it true that a teacher is often quiet during a test?  It isn’t that they want us to fail – they want us to put our full concentration on the work that needs to be done.

We aren’t making a deal with God when we pray.  When we place our confidence in Him we are allowing Him to bless us completely.  He will guide us through our daily walk.  He will hold our hands and keeps us from stumbling.  He will carry us when the burdens become too hard to bear.

God is our Father.  He cares about His children with a love that we can’t begin to comprehend.  It’s so easy, isn’t it?  All we have to do is give our hearts to Him and be consumed with His love and then share that love with others.

Lord, I need to let go of the cares that eat away at my faith.  I need to trust that you will always be there to hear my prayers and answer them in your way.  You know what’s best for me, so help me to trust in your bountiful care.  Amen!

About atimetoshare.me

As I reach the end of my years, I find I have a lot of good information stored up in this old decrepit mind of mine. If I don't write it all down, it may vanish and no one will have the advantage of my thoughts. This is why this blog exists. I love the Lord, Jesus with all my heart and soul. I know I'm undeserving of all He's done for me, but I also know that His love is beyond my comprehension. I've always wanted to write. I never kept diaries, but tucked my thoughts in my head for future reference. I use them now in creating stories, plays, poetry and my blog. I continue to learn every day. I believe the compilation of our time spent with God will have huge affect on the way we live. I know I'm a sinner and I need a Savior. I have One through Jesus, Christ. My book, "Stages - a memoir," is about the seven stages of life from the perspective of a woman. It addresses all the things girls and women go through in life as they travel it with Jesus, and it is available on Amazon.com.

    Great insight. I love this “We aren’t making a deal with God when we pray. When we place our confidence in Him we are allowing Him to bless us completely”. I had never thought of prayer as a means of expressing confidence in His blessing on us and our prayer. Thanks for sharing

      Thank you for honoring me for this award. I have made it a habit of not participating in these, but it is so kind of you to think of me. I enjoy your posts too. It has been so delightful getting to know other Christian friends through blogging. Thanks again!
