So, I've been doing some negative thinking lately. Focusing on what I don't have (I don't mean material things, but things in life) instead of focusing on what I DO have which is a lot, and my life is pretty great (knock on the wood). Would appreciate a prayer for peace of mind and to stay focused, focusing on achieving my goals in life. Thanks so much:)
 
Dear God and The Trio of Him:

Please bless Marianne and encourage her to be greatful for the great things already in her life. Help her to not focus on what she doesn't have or what is missing. Help provide for her what she doesn't have so she can be even more fulfilled. Give Marianne peace, comfort, a peaceful mind with focus and determination so she can continue working on what is important. Please provide amazing gifts for Marianne and also provide gifts for her hard work. Thank You God. You say ask receive. ILU IJNA
 
definitely praying for you. :-)

personal side note: be patient and understanding of yourself, and where you are right now. no one is perfect, this side of Heaven...even then, we are transformed into -perfected creatures- by His grace, not thru our own efforts or merit, etc.

we're all works-in-progress, after all. :-)

You are not alone. We are stuck in a tiny apartment. We left a 3 bedroom 2 bath home and now we are crammed in a small space with boxes stacked against wall/closets/under beds as we sit, sit ,sit and wait, wait ,wait upon the Lord as what to do next. Our son is going bonkers wanting to return to Texas. We tell him it is like jumping out of the tiny lifeboat and swimming with sharks and that he should just be patient. We have to learn that in many times throughout His Word He teaches contentment in all things at all times. It's so very hard at times as we wait upon the Lord. Let us help each other get through these times as turmoil sweeps the world. Praying for you and yours that peace/fulfillment be with you.
