He Reminds Me

This morning I woke up feeling a little better than yesterday.  For starters I think I've been suffering from a cold and then there is the emotional roller coaster that I've been riding for the last few days.  Never the less I was determined to focus on the Lord in my quite time and ask him to put me back on track and help me with the way I've been feeling.

I closed my eyes and began to pray, in the middle of it I heard the words play in my head over and over....Psalm 25.  I finished my prayer and then I knew what I had to do.  I opened my bible that was sitting in my lap to Psalm 25 and smiled instantly when I saw the heading "Dependence on the Lord".  Before I even started to read it I said thank you Lord, he knew what I needed all I had to do was obey and read.

I read the psalm and was gently reminded of where I need to continue to turn and whose ways I needed to follow no matter what my mind doesn't understand.  To trust Him.

I looked on the page and found that I had written a prayer to the Lord on January 25, 2012 in my bible.

Dear Lord

Impress upon me your ways, show me your ways, lead me in your truth, teach me.  Guide me along your path Lord.  You are the God of my salvation.  I will wait for you always.  Turn my eyes heavenward and move my feet to walk in step with you, oh Lord.  Your ways are the only ways to faithful love and everlasting truth.  Amen

It is so wonderful how my Heavenly Father knows how to gently remind me or re-direct me.  He knows just the right words to put before me.  I'm truly blessed to have such loving Father.  Thank you.
