A January of Prayer

| 22 January 2024

Good morning sweet friend! It’s 9:15 am now and I’ve just finished up prayer and Bible time. Todays prayers were of thankfulness. Thanking God for carrying us through yesterday and for being our strength. I’m so thankful for Him and for all He has done for us. 

This morning I was in the psalms and I wanted to share one that really encouraged me today! 

Psalm 111 

1Praise the Lord!

I will thank the Lord with all my heart

as I meet with his godly people.

2How amazing are the deeds of the Lord!

All who delight in him should ponder them.

3Everything he does reveals his glory and majesty.

His righteousness never fails.

4He causes us to remember his wonderful works.

How gracious and merciful is our Lord!

5He gives food to those who fear him;

he always remembers his covenant.

6He has shown his great power to his people

by giving them the lands of other nations.

7All he does is just and good,

and all his commandments are trustworthy.

8They are forever true,

to be obeyed faithfully and with integrity.

9He has paid a full ransom for his people.

He has guaranteed his covenant with them forever.

What a holy, awe-inspiring name he has!

10Fear of the Lord is the foundation of true wisdom.

All who obey his commandments will grow in wisdom.

Praise him forever!

Today was a good cleaning day. I did some tidying up downstairs and tomorrow I’m hoping to get more cleaning done in my room and do some book organization. 

Today I got to get a good workout in which I haven’t really been able to do since I got sick. I’m so glad to be getting better! It’s such an answer to prayer! Yes, I’m still a bit run down and tied and after yesterday my eyes are a bit burning and blurry and I feel drained but otherwise I’m feeling a lot better.

I also got to have a good conversation with my parents about something that we all have been feeling and it’s now a family prayer. 

I got some good brainstorming and planning in with my mom on some projects I’m really excited about!!! 

Today has been good. Chill and quiet. 

Now it’s raining. The rain pitter patters on the ground and against my bedroom window. 

It’s night now so I think I’ll sign off! I’ll chat soon! 

Question: is there a place in scripture that’s been encouraging you?
