A friend posted this on FB last week. I love the lyrics. I have struggled this last yr and half to know what I can do to make a difference. I was living overseas, loving what I was doing and believing that what I was doing was making an eternal significance. Then that identity was stripped of me and I came to the place of realizing my identity is that I AM A DAUGHTER OF THE MOST HIGH KING and that is all that matters. That is significant.
One of the lines in this song is, "Keep praying." This is something I can do. I will admit that my relationship with Jesus has not been where I've longed for it to be this past yr. I have had little capacity or energy to take care of me, my home and my family so it's been hard to carve out the time and energy I long to have to soak with Jesus, journal and invest in that relationship. Worship songs are a way I connect. Yet I desire to get back into my journal Bibles that I started for me kids (where I can journal on the margins when a verse stands out or I wanna write a prayer for my kids next to a verse. Today is actually the first day where I feel like I have some energy and strength that has been lacking in a long time. I guess the TPN is doing what it's supposed to...that and all the prayers sent up on my behalf. And in this last week this other song has been on my mind throughout my days, when I wake up, etc. I am reminded that no matter HE LOVES ME with a reckless love!
Anyways, I love to pray. Last week a friend told another friend about an incident where she told me about some nightmares she was having and I took some time to do some listening/inner healing prayer with her. I invited her to go back into her nightmare and meet Jesus there and to experience the freedom He longed for her from those nightmares. She said after that she hasn't had another nightmare. So we talked about my passion for others to hear God's voice, my yearning to be in community with prophetic and listening prayer. I kinda jokingly said, "Well I guess that's something I can do is pray. Maybe I should put something on FB and tell people if they want prayer they could come and I will pray for them." They said I totally should. After reflecting on it, I would love to do that. Eventually, when health, money and time allows I will attend a 5 day training seminar to work towards my life coaching training. But in the mean time I have been trained to walk people through STEPS TO FREEDOM IN CHRIST. I have been trained in inner healing and listening prayer. So this is something I am offering to Jesus, asking for opportunities to use my gifts and my passions to walk alongside others and be able to see them experience the freedom He longs for them to have in their own lives.
Please join me in prayer as I seek what little things I can do in the lives of those around me. Lord, I am ready to be used right where I am!
