Let It Burn! (in a good way)

Day 15:


Over the past two weeks I have been learning a lot about myself and my relationship with God. God has even showed me a lot and I have even heard God speak to me. It is such a rare occurrence, but I want more of it. :) Even last night God showed me how blessed I was. My friend was baptized as I mentioned from yesterday's post. I have seen other baptisms, heard other testimonies, but none has moved me or meant more to me than this one did. I can't explain why I feel this, but God is so good and I can't imagine my life without this person. I know its all God. Through Him, she encourages me and makes me happy. I am so glad the enemy never won.


I asked this question on facebook today, what do you do when someone says you can't do something? Answer, prove them wrong. That's when I realize that God wants that fire to combat the evil one. How cool is that realization?


I believe my passion is coming back. It's so exciting. After praying yesterday, I could feel the presence of God grow stronger, now that's what I call the power of prayer. I love my brothers and sisters! I feel so empowered by yesterday.


Also with this new found (again) strength I have realized the difference between spiritual warfare and just plain laziness, either of which aren't good, but I am glad for the ability to distinguish when one is coming into play.


I am so glad God is taking hold of my life and setting it ablaze. Before I felt like a little flame, in the darkness, but now am feeling much bigger and brighter. 


Here is a song, that is an oldie, but a goody. It was always my favorite.

Anyways, God always surprises me, because this in not the direction I was going with this post. But I love it despite the change. He is so good all the time and all the time He is good. 


Lord,
I praise you for this day! IT was a great day. You helped me triumph over the darkness and beat the "Monday blues" today. Like in the song, God set our hearts on fire and shed your light into the darkness. Set my life ablaze, I want to be an example for others. You are an amazing teacher. Help remind me that you are here to reignite my passion. Thank you for giving me so many blessings. I pray that you continue to show me how to be a fire for you. I pray for my friends that you continue to show them how to set their hearts on fire too. You are an amazing God! I pray all these things in your name.


Amen.
