To Know HIM

There was a time when I needed an answer to the question, “Does God exist?” Surely, I am not in doubt anymore. For the past three years, I have been posting prayers in my bible app, just as a convenient method of reviewing prayers and keeping them in a safe place to remind myself of the many ways that God has been answering various prayers throughout the years. Just to share a few: New job opportunities, growth in my marriage, and debt cancellation. One thing that has changed because of the app, is a deeper relationship with God. It’s not based on the fact that these things were done for me, but just the consistency of meeting and talking with God on a regular basis. Spending time with HIM in this manner has given me peace and has helped me to withstand the rough times that stress can bring on the job, in various relationships, and just with dealing with the “unknown”. I am thankful for the blessings, but I am even more thankful for the foundation that has been laid to withstand the storms of life. To be completely transparent, I was not going to write this post. But on second thought, I restored it because I felt compelled to share with others what helped me get through a very tough week. Honestly, it was spending time with God. I shut off the TV, put on some praise music, and let it and the Word of God, minister to me. After I let it sink in that everything was going to be okay, and that the Lord had it all under control, I realized that once again, my prayers would be answered…..just as it has been shown in the app.
