31 Days - Day 23

Prayer - Part I




Prayer is not a formula. It is primarily a love relationship expressed between you and your loving heavenly Father. He is all-wise, all-loving, all-powerful, all-able to hear and to answer. God call us to Himself to speak with Him face-to-face.

What is prayer?
  1. Relationship - verbalizing total child-like dependence on my faithful Father - John 1:12, Matthew 6:9, 7:11
  2. Intimate two-way conversation between tow people who love each other, talking with God - James 4:8
  3. Pleading promises - Joshua 23:14, 2 Corinthians 1:20
  4. Acknowledging entire dependence on Sovereign God - John 15:4
  5. Asking God for something - Matthew 7:7-8
  6. Ministering to God - Deuteronomy 10:8
  7. Pouring out our burdens on our caring Friend - Psalm 55:22, 1 Peter 5:7
  8. The beginning of every move of God - Habakkuk 3:1-2

One thing I ask of the Lord this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in His temple (Psalm 27:4). God desires us to seek and find Him - You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart (Jeremiah 29:13). God is pleased with our fellowship in prayer - the pray of the upright pleases Him (Proverbs 15:8).

Travel Adventures 2023

Travel Adventures 2023 – So many places to go!   This year my husband and I traveled to Reno, Lake Tahoe and Yosemite National Park. I took lots of pictures but could only choose a few for this blog. I’ve included a little information about each location we visited, along with a few pictures. Enjoy! Reno is a city in the northwest section of the U.S. state of Nevada, along the Nevada-California border, about 22 miles (35 km) north from Lake Tahoe, known as "The Biggest Little City in the World". Known for its casino and tourism industry. We stayed at the Nugget Casino & Resort...and no, I did not put any money in the slot machines!!! :-) What's a vacation with shopping - the  Outlets at Legends  proved to be more than shopping. Then off to  Virginia City.   Lake Tahoe is located on the border of California and Nevada. About two-thirds of the lake is in California, with about one-third extending into Nevada at the north and south ends of the lake, and the entire

Happy Labor Day!

  Labor Day is an annual celebration of the social and economic achievements of American workers. It is a federal holiday in the United States celebrated on the first Monday in September to honor and recognize the American labor movement and the works and contributions of laborers to the development and achievements of the United States. The holidays stem from the late 1800s when labor activists wanted a federal holiday to recognize workers' contributions to the country.   The first U.S. Labor Day was celebrated on Tuesday, September 5, 1882 in New York City, planned by the Central Labor Union.  The Labor Day parade of about 10,000 workers took unpaid leave and marched from City Hall past Union Square uptown to 42nd street and ended in Wendel’s Elm Park at 92nd Street and 9th Avenue for a concert, speeches, and a picnic. Oregon was the first to declare Labor Day an official holiday in 1887. Labor Day is considered the 'unofficial NFL season kickoff.' 99.44 percent of the ti
