New Beginnings... Only a Prayer Away


Some times life take turns we'll never expect or anticipate.  My life has completely changed since my last blog post.  I've been reading Max Lucado's book Before Amen and participating in an online Bible study. 

Not that long ago, I thought that prayer was the hardest thing, but as I've learned prayer isn't nearly as hard as we make it out to be.  Max simplifies prayers in fact, Max Lucado, the prolific writer, calls himself a prayer wimp. 

I know many people who believe that prayer should have many trappings and they are not eloquent enough, they've suffered to much damage, they are too broken to have God fix their broken places.

But I'm learning that God specializes in the broken, the more I am weak, God is strong.  Max is going to give you an easy pocket prayer that will unlock your heart and allow you to put to words what God already knows... your heart.

There are so many items that go along with this amazing book including a prayer journal that I've put all of the prayers of my heart to paper. 

Take some time to be with God today and if you don't have the words you need I know this book will unlock words in your heart.

Many Blessings!
