Color this week over, I’m glad it’s done. It was a hard week, a challenging week in many ways: physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. It left me feeling blue. I did some wrestling with God this week in prayer. There were tears shed. I wondered if my prayers did any good. It seems I pray and pray and pray, but it comes to naught. Right about then God does a big work in the life of someone I’ve been praying for. It kind of feels like a poke in the chest and God saying, “See I hear your prayers and I do answer them, but in My time frame and according to My plan.”
After struggling with prayer today, I realized that it was the enemy trying to discourage me. When I got a hold of that…I prayed those faithful prayers, that Lord willing He will answer. Especially the prayers for the salvation of my family and friends, Lord willing.
