"The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much."
James 5:15-16
"Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk."
"And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive."
Matthew21:22
Wondering About God?
Thou awakest us to delight in Thy praise; for Thou madest us for Thyself, and our heart is restless, until it repose in Thee.
Grant me, Lord, to know and understand which is first, to call on Thee or to praise Thee?
And, again, to know Thee or to call on Thee?
For who can call on Thee, not knowing Thee?
For he that knoweth Thee not, may call on Thee as other than Thou art.
Or, is it rather, that we call on Thee that we may know Thee?
But how shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed?
Or how shall they believe without a preacher?
And they that seek the Lord shall praise Him:
for they that seek shall find Him,
and they that find shall praise Him.
I will seek Thee, Lord, by calling
on Thee; and will call on Thee, believing in Thee; for to us hast Thou been preached.
My faith, Lord, shall call on Thee, which Thou hast
given me, wherewith Thou hast inspired me, through the Incarnation of Thy Son, through the ministry of the Preacher.
God, please direct my thinking, especially that it be divorced from self pity, dishonest and self seeking motives. Show me throughout the day what my next step will be. Give me whatever I need to take care of whatever problems I face. Help me especially, Lord, to be free from self will. God, show me the way of patience, tolerance, kindliness, and love. God, save me from being angry. Please remove fear from me and direct me to what you would have me be. How can I be helpful to others? I pray for the willingness to be willing. God I offer myself to you - to build with me and do with me as you will. Relieve me of the bondage of self, that I may better do your will. Take away my difficulties, that victory over them may bear witness to those I would help of Your Power, Your Love, and Your Way of Life. May I do your will always.
God, take me in. Be the focus of my heart and mind. Please help me to renew myself. I know you will never fail me. My creator, I am now willing that you should have all of me good and bad. I pray that you now remove from me every single sin, which stands in the way of my usefulness to you and my fellows. Grant me strength O' Lord, as I go out from here, to do your bidding.....
-Amen
BEING A BRAVEHEART SAINT
Living for God requires Faith & Fortitude; believing God's Word as written in the Bible. In me, Hope has spawned Faith, and Faith is the springboard for Fortitude; which is a gift from God, and from Fortitude comes courage. The absence of courage is cowardness, and in the excess of self it is recklessness, which neither has a place in the life of a Braveheart Saint. In honoring all my friendships, this requires a humble estimation of myself, which is this: I need others. My life is all about getting into action; God's Holy Word gives wisdom about what I should do, as a result, I have to use this judgment in everything I do.
My only will power begins and ends right there. So therefore, choice is at the heart of me living my promise and keeping my word.
Should I choose to reach up to God, could I bring him down? Or be fueled by self will and brute force, and lift grace from this chaos? I choose...to surrender to God. This is really my only responsibility, to give him my life, and all the things in it to his care, and my will to his guidance. Because being a man of God requires only one thing I got: a little faith, and a few friends, and the gift of hope.
There are times when I can't see God or feel God. Being around my friends helps relieve me of my burden, and allows me to get back in touch with God. God gives me strength. That strength comes from living as much as I can in a relationship with God, knowing he is watching over me, and is cares for me, my life and everything in it. Being with the Saints, and the other fellowships who share this enlightenment, is a great source of hope for me.
Serving God dosen't have to involve a moral dilemma: the necessity to choose between competing desires in circumstances that prevent you from doing both. Putting my life in God's hands brings the thing that I should do first, right to me. Being the better: as a Husband, Father, Employee, and Friend. But there is one thing more to it than just that; Faith is at the heart of my actions. Knowing God's Word and an understanding of what is right and wrong, dosen't mean anything unless it is coupled to action. Step by step each piece of the foundation of my life is laid; day by day from God, His Divine Word, & through people and experiences, I learn and grow. My thoughts aren't always in the right place, but my actions can be. God has given me some power over my body, so by doing the right thing,right thinking may follow. So, to feel good...you have to do good things. A sincere determination and dedication to be honest, to myself & everyone I meet, is essential. It is a discipline for me, and my own personal vow. So, what is the ingredient that enables me to fulfill this vow? Having Godly pride? A sense of duty? Fortitude? No, it is this:
Unhappy is the soul enslaved by the love of
anything that is mortal.
-Saint Augustine.
WHY AM I DIFFERENT?
Now therefore fear the LORD, and serve him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Egypt; and serve ye the LORD.
And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.
-Joshua 24:14-15
A DAILY COMMITMENT
A God given strength, which comes from giving my life to God, and to live by his moral principles.
God enables me to overcome my difficulties, like removing from me most selfishness, most dishonesty, and a lot of feelings of self pity.
This daily commitment: giving my life to God, and humbly seeking God's will, is the value that has established me as the man that my family respects, follows, and depends on.

This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit. Because Joseph her husband was a righteous man and did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly.
But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins."
(Matthew 1:18-21 NIV)
