I Just Had to feel My Way Forward

You may have tried a thousand times to find a way to heal. But now you still hurt, maybe even more than you could ever try to explain. I’ve been there, and I understand. I couldn’t walk away from my pain and I just couldn’t heal. I just had to feel my way forward while I was full of bone-dry and silent tears.

But I was not alone; I was never alone and neither are you. Even now, as you and I talk through the power of technology, you are not alone. Someone far more powerful than I is right there with you.

There is an ancient teaching that tells us that where two or three are gathered together in the Creator’s name, He is also there. The teaching also states that if you (all) ask anything in His name, He will do do it. The only limit is that we don't ask out of an evil or selfish heart. Take a minute and ponder that. The Creator of the universe is gathered together with us right now as we are about pray. 

So let’s pray with all the honesty and humility we posess: Father, we come to you in need of Your help, Your intervention, and Your joy for we have muddled our own way through for far too long. Fill our hearts once more with Your joy. Provide for our needs and help us to provide for the needs of others. Forgive us and teach us to learn how to forgive others. Hold us closer than Your own breath, even when we try to pull away and Heal, restore, and reinvent our lives in Your image. Help us! We ask you in the name of Jesus, who is here with us now even as we gather here to pray. Amen.
