Proverbs 3:7-8

Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and shun evil. This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones. Proverbs 3:7-8

Over the past few months, my life was a direct result of me "being wise in my own eyes."

I thank God that I have turned away from evil and am pursuing righteousness.

I am grateful that God has done the following for me and for His Glory:

1. Restored my relationship with all three of my children.
2. Delivered me from the hand of the enemy.
3. Gives me His strength, which is being perfected through my weakness.
4. Blessed me with loving brothers and sisters in the body of Jesus Christ, who encourage me and let me know that I am not alone.
5. Transforming my heart and mind through the Power of the Holy Spirit, and the redemptive washing of the Blood of Jesus Christ.

My fervent prayers for today are:

1. That the Body of Christ would MAKE JESUS CHRIST THE HEAD.
2. That God will have His way with me, using me only for HIS GLORY.
3. My wife Laura and her Salvation. She needs JESUS desperately.
4. Restoration and Reconciliation of my marriage.
5. Protection over my family.
6. Protection, guidance, discernment and wisdom for one of my brothers in the LORD who lives in the Outer Banks of N.C.
7. That the lost, would come to Jesus Christ.
8. That the Holy Spirit would guide the Wednesday Community Group that I belong to, leading them to all truth through the WORD of the LORD.
9. Protection for my Pastor and his family. Pray that the fruits of the Spirit would continue to grow exponentially and quickly, to make him a powerful tool unto the KING'S SERVICE.
10. Pray for my divorce to be stopped and that my wife would come to the LORD.
11. Pray for my financial situation.

A short word to some friends that visited my roomate and I last week:

I Love You. I am sorry. Will you forgive me?
You are in my prayers. I ask that the LORD refine you, burning out any sinful thing in you so that You will be without spot, blemish or wrinkle. God is a Holy God. He demands purity and Holiness. Those characteristics are part of who He is. He loves you the most.

God Bless.
