Day5, God teaching (reminder again) for today: He doesn't need me to ask. He isn't limited by my understanding. He does however enjoy the conversation.

Day 4, GOD seems to be sending several people in my direction. Not sure what is happening. I find myself distracted from the moment by thinking about His plan.

Day 3,
GOD, please help me to be mindful in every moment of what you are leading me to do.  May I see you in such a way at every decision that I stop to reach out to you.
Are we fully aware of GOD only a certain spots throughout the day?
I pray for those on "the list" today.
Am I on GOD's list?
I am thankful for the ability to get up and do work.  Thank you Lord for the things You allow me to do and give me the power to do.
Am I using ALL that He has gifted me to use?
Make Yourself clearly and directly in front of us, that we may see and know You!

Shout out to the couple of folk I saw before 6:30 this morning!

Day 2, praying for the Holy Spirit power on Pentecost. No joke prayed against a dog on the way home from church. Prayed that GOD would shut its mouth.

Day 1,
"17 I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit[f] of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. 18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, 19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength 20 he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms" (Ephesians 1:17-20). 
I'm praying to be confident of the power that He wants to have in me.  That I will NOT depend upon myself, but look to GOD for everything today and in the days to come. 
A pastor friend I know was counting the sermons he had delivered in his time serving a church.  I started doing the same thing.  When I first saw the low numbers I couldn't even image getting very far.  100 weeks is a long time, but I finally made it.  That number 1 for today looks so far away from 365.  I can't do it on my own.  I have to always have that in mind.

GOD, show me your power and help me to be obedient to Your leading.  I know that You have strength enough for all that I will do today and more.  Allow me to be mindful of it!
First note for what GOD is doing: Two days ago, my wife and I were trying to figure out where we were going to get a few extra dollars to take care of a couple things.  I got upset.  Yesterday, her last paycheck came that we were not expecting.  He even provides when we don't go to him first.  All the more reason to tap into that power.  His plan is better and wouldn't have caused my distress.

Here we go Wayne!

Starting New (Again?!)

I made a commitment today.  I just started using a phone app that sends me a new Bible reading for every day.  I have been doing that for a while.  The commitment was to document what GOD does during a year of prayer.  I will be praying daily and having a buddy of mine hold me accountable to record what GOD is doing.  I am a bit excited and nervous.  We will see!
I am trying a new way of blogging
