This ...I haven't been on this blog in a LONG while. This is a great post and I am going to check out the other dares. Praying for your children's heart is so big and yes, yet so simple.<BR/><BR/>I like the idea of thinking about and choosing three specific areas to pray about.<BR/><BR/>Joining you in prayer...Tiffanie Lloydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08669598883990557029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5374186690102644486.post-4232118427802985162008-11-10T04:22:00.000-05:002008-11-10T04:22:00.000-05:00Keeping you in my prayers sweetie.Keeping you in my prayers sweetie.Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09275456448997619944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5374186690102644486.post-58190341320514868122008-11-09T20:49:00.000-05:002008-11-09T20:49:00.000-05:00Blessings Beth...A difficult task indeed but YOUR ...Blessings Beth...A difficult task indeed but YOUR LOVE does intercede!I prayed for my response<BR/>that you asked for...you know I'm honest & sincere for the good!<BR/><BR/>Your heart is the heart of a mother!<BR/><BR/>Of course, praying for your children is a simple and a complex thing...<BR/>They are now adults. The dare was a snare...for Papa God...or Jesus to enter their life, clearly is your first choice...in interceding for them! But they need to come to Papa through Jesus, as their friend... first because of the concept they may have of a father...or a father's love. You cannot be the father & the mother or make up for the past. It is time to advance forward. So...for me the 3 specific areas was not to be changes in them, because He will work those out in them as He does in us! <BR/><BR/>Your initial verse from 3 John was an excellent place to start! Your choice to pray for their salvation<BR/>was the next very wise & obvious choice! For there is their heart!<BR/><BR/>If you will permit me, you focused on the 3 areas as being changes. I understand why you chose CONFIDENCE that was a good area for God to WORK in...that's the LOVE DARE!<BR/>Where do you desire God to work?<BR/>I think to improve your relationship that another one for all of YOU would be HEALING! Yes, Father God...Papa, this blessed family deserves healing from their past & the pain of their past but<BR/>the consequences in their lives are <BR/>grand! Another area for God to work is in FORGIVENESS...of the same because in the forgiveness comes the healing and better relationship. And from these areas that SPIRITUAL DOORS would open for them and you should pray for good Christian friends & their future marriage partners would be Christians, so you would pray for that person that will enter their life and a READINESS of their hearts for YOU & a Christian person to lead & guide their lives in that direction that they would be mentored & filled with God's mercies & grace as HE surrounds them with the right people to LEAD them into the arms of a Papa that will never betray them, abandon them, deceive them or use them...<BR/>that they will meet the Father & receive every portion of HIS LOVE LETTER for their direction & plan & purpose to readjust all those things we want changed...<BR/><BR/>You are doing so well on this LOVE DARE! Give them each a hug just so you get a big hug...you deserve a<BR/>SUPER "PAPA HUG"!!!<BR/><BR/>I thought about putting this in an email but decided it should be here. Forgive me if you would have preferred this...but I pray that this helps others doing for their adult/children instead of a spouse.<BR/>If you want you may reject this or I will delete it(if need be).Peggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07178137619890142365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5374186690102644486.post-82536485897515682512008-11-09T20:04:00.000-05:002008-11-09T20:04:00.000-05:00Hi Beth,((Hugz)) I am in prayer as well for my dau...Hi Beth,<BR/>((Hugz)) I am in prayer as well for my daughter. I no longer pray and wait for something to happen, I pray as if it is already done. I have learned to leave her totally in the Lords hands which was not easy cause Mommy wants to always protect and fix everything. But what Joy it is to know God can do a better job than I ever could. My job is to pray her through, and love her through all.I enjoyed reading your post today, and just reading what you've wrote I see the joy that you have been exoeriencing as you go on in your journey.<BR/><BR/>Hugz LorieJoyfulsisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13288063897551319116noreply@blogger.com
