I wanted to share a little something with you this morning… I shared it with a friend and decided to also share it on my blog. Praying God can use it to touch others.
I was missing Mama extra much this morning, remembering some funny moments we shared and some Mama/ daughter private jokes that we shared. I was trying to start my quiet time with the Lord and was overwhelmed by the sadness I was feeling and the aching I had in my heart as I missed my Mama. I was searching for what the Lord wanted to tell me today. I kept saying “Lord just show me your word, show me what you want me to know today” . So I sat here and listened. I felt led to get up, get out a Bible that belonged to my Grandmother, one that my mother had given her the year I was born.
I opened it and prayed “ what Lord, where Lord, I’m not sure what I’m supposed to pray, or what I’m looking for or from you today. Please Lord lead me” In that moment I found a tiny scrap of notebook paper written in my Grandmother’s handwriting that marked a page in the Bible, it read “ Romans 8: 26, 27.” So I looked at it in the word and it says :
“Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought; but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groaning which cannot be uttered.
27 .And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because, he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.
I had to share, for God is ever so faithful and when we are lost and don’t know the words to even pray…he makes intercession for us, when we cannot utter what should be said…HE does it for us as we search our hearts and asked to be filled with the Spirit. My prayer…LORD fill that void that I feel in my heart for Mama with more of your Spirit…fill me Lord today that I may poor out more of you!!!!!
God is faithful!
