May 1

Here is the prayer for today.

Draw me into a closer relationship with you!

I do pray this, I pray that I will grow in my relationship every day. I pray that You will draw me closer and that I will be receptive to this. I pray that I will be excited about You and what You are doing in my life.

Thank you so much for what you have been doing so far and I pray that you will continue to do so.

Procrastination

Well.....I must be the queen of procrastination. I sit here with about 12 things to do on my to do list. And I'm not doing a single one of them. And I don't want to either.

So maybe later I'll put up posts about the the Power of a Praying Woman. So off I go to maybe do one or two of them.

Power of a praying woman

well, since I've been trying to get my life back, I've been wanting to improve my prayer life. And what a better place to start than with the Power of a Praying Woman. Lord, plant me that I might bear fruit. I'm going to blog each day with a new prayer, then when the month is up, I'll go through them again and expand on each one. I'm wanting new habits, so this is a good place to start. lianagrace

The Power of Prayer

Oh so many times I learn lessons in life. Then it seems that I have to go back and learn them again. Sometimes all over from the beginning, but sometimes just a different aspect of the principle.

I really have thought that I would like to be a woman of prayer. But I lack much of the discipline and structure in my life to make it happen. So as I'm turning OLD I realized that I must do certain things to help make my desires a reality.

So I'm going to begin the Power of a Praying Woman. So for the next 30 days or so I'm going to journal my journey. I hope that you enjoy this journey with me.

It's been a long time

So much has happened since I've last blogged.

I started Bible Study. It's one by Priscilla Shirer called "One in a Million". It's been so very good for me. I know that there have been many things keeping me from fulfilling my potential. And this is one great way for me to get started on my way.

We are only in our first week of the study but we are taking it slow and really taking about two weeks on each week of the study. So she has started out by talking about the shackles that keep us tied up in our bondage. I know that I have studied this many times over. And it seems as if each time I learn it about something different.

So this time I am learning about untying the shackles of my divorce. I have held on to the idea that I still love the man that I thought I married. And somehow....welll.....I just don't know how to describe how I felt. But I found myself constantly needing to know what was going on in his life. BUT I need to let that go. He choose not to love me and to deceive me about who he is. So I need to move on and that means not knowing what is going on in his life.

This week I have only checked out his life once. It has truly felt nice. It's nice to have a life that does not revolve around the past and is not based who or what I thought someone was. It's amazing and freeing to be focusing on the future and my growth as a person.

I'm so glad that God has brought someone into my life that loves Him and is dedicated to growing in Him. It's neat to see a young lady that was raised by a very solid christian family and it is encouraging to know that my nieces will someday be like this lovely woman, since they are being raised in godly homes.

Can't wait to see what the future holds....both for myself and my lovely nieces. We are all One in a Million!!!!!

Happy New Year

I'm looking forward to a new year....one that has new habits and new adventures.

So watch out....cuz it's gonna be a good one! LOL
