She had lost everything valuable to her because she was so entangled in her suffering loved one's life.
She was physically sick.
Her friends didn't want to be around her. Her family was in constant conflict.
Her loved one was going deeper into her addiction.
She was desperate. She had hit her bottom.
And she wanted to live instead of die. She wanted life.
We all wake up each morning with the same number of seconds given to us. How are you going to use yours today?
Are you going to choose gratitude? Peace? Love?
Are you going to choose LIFE?
Praying today that through faith we make that choice. And praying today through faith that our loved ones do the same.
September 20, 2018 Our prayer for our loved one today:
Deuteronomy 30:19-20 NIV[19] This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live [20] and that you may love the Lord your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him. For the Lord is your life...
Lord, we come before you today grateful because you have the words of eternal life. Today, this moment, you have set before each of us a choice. You have set before [our loved one] the choice of life or death, blessings or curses. We pray that [our loved one] would choose life, so that [he/she] and [his/her] entire family would live...really live!! We pray that [our loved one] would chase after you, would listen to your voice and would hold fast to you! For in you there is life. Lord, we agree with your word today. We ask these things in the powerful name of Jesus. Amen!
