Powerful Prayer

Good Morning World,
Last night was a long journey - sleep was such a long road that I traveled. You know how sometimes when you lay down you think ok world here I am now just leave me alone and let me rest...well, somenights GOD has other plans...always in the still of the night when everything is quiet, He and I spend time together, He visits my mind and soul..I talk, He listens,He covers me with a quiet gentle calmness that allows me to sleep the night thru. He stands by my bed and watches me breath, He guards my home and my peaceful slumber, but some nights and last night was one of them, GOD calls me to duty - PRAYER DUTY -

Overwhelmed I became with massive blessings, names, faces, actions and prayer needs that I felt compelled to lift up to the LORD. My blessings of such magnitude I feared I would fail to mention something of great importance, the faces that needed prayers or special needs so deep I would fail, the sheer depth of what GOD was calling me to do at this hour.

After I ran through the days activities of blessings, needs, people that GOD had sent to me in prayer, I still felt overwhelmed, but I remembered one thing about the day, I had walked with the LORD all day, He had carried me, He had held my hand, He had embraced me, He had showed me compassion, He had showed me tolerance, He had guided me through the rough spots and He had lifted me over the deep waters of the day. He had had someone pray for me today and I felt it. As I laid down to sleep I prayed that someone who GOD had guided me to pray for would feel the blessing that comes from knowing that others are praying for you.

Praying is not just a nightly journey, it is walking with the LORD all day long - Yesterday I walked with Him all day long and it felt right - I pray the journey continues today.
