National Day of Prayer

Today, May 7, 2015, is the National Day of Prayer. I think it is a wonderful thing that we set aside one day a year to remember that we need to pray. Billy Graham once said, "If there are any tears shed in Heaven it will be because we prayed so little." I know that GOD knows our hearts, that He hears our prayers when we can't form the words, that He knows what we need before we even ask, but we need to pray.

Our nation is in desperate need for GOD to intervene and straighten some things out. Our neighborhoods are in need of GOD to reach down and bring peace. Our families need the touch of GOD to settle disputes and to bring harmony. Our churches need GOD to direct their ministries. We need GOD to help; we need to talk to Him; we need to pray.

Today's word is simple: "Life is hard but GOD is good."

GOD wants what is best for His children. He has plans for us that we can't even fathom or comprehend. He has so much in store for us and so much stored up for us, if ONLY we would ask. 2 Chronicles 7:14, KJV, reads, "If My people, which are called by My name, shall humble themselves, and PRAY, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from Heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land."

Let's pray for GOD to direct us and change us and move and motivate us to do His will. And, let's remember that life is indeed hard but GOD is always good.

Be Blessed,
Mickey T
