Dear Lord, I'm done PLEADING through intercessory prayer for my daughter's deliverance from her deception. Today I begin THANKING & PRAISING You -- Lord, for how and when You bring her OUT of her immoral lifestyle. According to Your Word You told Your people in the wilderness, "I carried you on eagles wings and brought you to Myself, *Exodus 19:4) and we ask that you bring her out of the wilderness that she's in and let her "see Your face"! (Psalm 17:15) I will be eagerly anticipating the day that You "lift up" her head. (Psalm 3:3) "You are our "strong deliverer"! (Psalm 140:7)

No job. Food stamps reduced to $66 per month. This is my last unemployment check for 166.00. Exhausted benefits. Been praying for a long time for this to be over, and prayed that it wouldn't start for a long time before that. I keep making the mistake of telling God that I give up my preferences for His will. This is difficult often.

Dear Lord, When the Lord saw her, his heart went out to her and he said, "Don't cry." (Luke 7:13) I woke up this morning of course with my loved one in my thoughts again. I know that I need to stop thinking about this prodigal daughter and rely on God's promises. I turn to the Bible and begin to read... "Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:6-7) I know that peace and confidence will come when I begin to focus on Jesus because "he himself is our peace." (Ephesians 2:14) I need to drop everything and spend time with God, remembering that He is "majestic in holiness, awesome in glory, working wonders" (Exodus 15:11) When I weep in my "gut" for my daughter because of her plans contrary to God's plan for her, I remember that Jesus is weeping, too! I'm waiting for Jesus to stop her with a road block of His amazing love! I place her in Your hands Jesus! I believe that You can and will turn her plans around. He is the "resurrection and the life" (John 11:25) You are God, and you answer prayer! Your "love never fails" (1 Corinthians 13:8)!
