The Power of Prayer

It is a very interesting day. I am sitting at home after not setting foot in this place for over 24 hours. It is an interesting akwardness when you walk into your own place and there is no one there that you really want to see or deal with because you are dealing with your own issues and sins. 

But the fact of the matter is that this life is not all about you. It is about You and the people around you. I am in a house with tow old people in which I am not sure how to deal with neccessarily. I am truly seeking my Lord in prayer. 

This is the beauty and power of prayer. We must pray when we have no where to go or do not understand what is going on around us. I do not want to get in the way of anyones purpose even when I do not understand what they are doing. So when I do not understand I pray.

I pray mostly because if I do not pray I just might react unjustly and truly hurt or interrupt a situation that God Himself has ordained.... I think. Needless to say this is a time, today is a day where I do not feel very connected to my family and the people that I love. I do not even feel very connected or in touch with myself. I just want to hide and act like I do not see or know what is going on in my own house. 

I pray that the Lord reconciles these feelings and my actions of running the opposite direction and not helping or getting involved. Sometimes I feel like things are not fair. And the point is it is not fair but that doesn't mean I have the right or option to not engage..... interesting....

My Prayer: that the Lord forgive me of my sins. That He shows me how to overcome my own issues with things and the people that I love around me. That He shows me how to engage correctly and how to stay balanced at the same time. That in order to help I do not have to loose myself in it. That the Holy Spirit shows me how I can help. In the name of Jesus. AMEN!!

Till next time....
