Answered Prayers

For 2011, I prayed for change, uncomfortableness, things to make me get out of my comfort zone, to be less selfish - to bring me closer to God. I've prayed for change in my marriage that we become a stronger couple and a great team. In just the last few weeks, prayers have been answered in the least expected way. 2011 will definitely be a year of change, uncomfortableness, learning true selflessness, and building a stronger marriage.

All too often God works in ways that we least expect.

"For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope." Jeremiah 29:11

What if...

What if we spent more than just 1 hour a week at church worshipping God? I am aware that church is not the only form of worshipping, but still.

What if we didn't get so upset that schools don't talk about God? What if we made up for that during home time and weekends?

What if we embraced change?

What if we focused our thoughts on heaven instead of earth?

What if we took up our cross and gave up everything to follow Christ?
