August 13, 2013

John 15:   16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide; so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.

Jesus is still talking to the disciples, but these words speak to me as well.  I feel so blessed that God chose me for the gift of faith.  I know the comfort it brings me, and I am happy to go and bear Christian fruit wherever I go.

I also feel the power of prayer.  I try to pray every morning and evening.  I pray for everyone I love, and I pray for those who ask for prayer.  I am sure the Lord is aware of my requests, and I know that He enjoys my words of praise too.

Prayer:  Praise be to God for the gift of faith he has bestowed on me.  I ask that you make your will clear to me, and I uphold all those I love for your grace and consideration. Be especially with those who grieve and suffer from illness. 
Amen
