I so delighted in you...Well Private Bugle Blower... I so delighted in your gifted thoughts on Prayer (and dumb stuff) or trivial or as you better expressed our every minute time of concerns... and your analogy to talking with your sons, is SPOT ON... exactly right! <br /><br />As you know by now Sharon, I talk to God regularly, warrior style to even arrow shot prayers and many wandering mind ones, frequently intercessory, yet it's the open line communication of RELATING to GOD in everything small to big... like your current needs of health returning to you and your folks. Hope your dad is recovering, and you and your mom. You realize that rest is what you need and until you can get it and the accompanying peace; you won't relax or get well. Yet I am praying for you, your mom and dad (now that I know) since I'm way behind in catching up. Yet all this and what you wrote matter to God. You can't have a relationship without prayer and that's just communicating with God. However, I wager to say that praying His Word may be considered lofty prayers, but I feel that since His Word will not return void, and Jesus did this when He needed strength, I believe that there is power when you pray His Word fervently, frequently and filled up by His Spirit flowing freely but I think He enjoys all styles, written and spoken, just being in touch whether on our knees, prostrate or flat on our back when we're sick or unable to sleep... He hears us, fluffy and dumb, wandering and word filled... as you once again inspire us to just stay in touch!<br />(which I hope to do better with blog friends and God soon)<br /><br />Love and big get well hugs,<br />Peggy Peggynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168946904182381428.post-10722352097067898052013-04-11T17:45:25.636-07:002013-04-11T17:45:25.636-07:00Hi Sharon,

A lot of the times it is the little things I don't pray about.

That just spoke my language!! I love serious discussion with the girls, but in truth, it is a pure delight to me when they call for my advice or just opinion on a small matter.

How on earth could I decide WHAT to talk to God about and where the line should be drawn on which is too trivial, unless I just talk to Him about all of it! I so agree with your heart today. It's a running conversation, through the night many times, and through the day... even when I get distracted and on my own path, it's not long before I'm right back in His lap! And aren't we glad that He never gets tired of us or turns away! :) (I do wonder sometimes if I see Him smiling at the sheer volume of words coming His way from me...)<br /><br /><br />http://bitsandpieces-sonja.blogspot.com/https://www.blogger.com/profile/09254831447887637714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168946904182381428.post-58834874821120170552013-04-08T12:37:10.771-07:002013-04-08T12:37:10.771-07:00You write like my brain thinks, so it was delightf...You write like my brain thinks, so it was delightful to chat with you today ...and it occurs to me, I chat with God in the same way.

I'm back in Blogland and catching up with things - not the least of which is saying hello to you and being blessed - always so blessed - by your insights into our Lord! I am with you here on feeling silly, sometimes, praying for "dumb stuff" - but, the Lord has been teaching me a lot lately about how all the little dumb stuffs of our day turns out to be the fullness of our days and that's exactly what He wants from us in our prayer life - the whole of our day, big or small. On a small things note - your were right about that pink kitty I DID take home from the tea shop. On a big things note - YOU WON MY GIVE-AWAY!!! And, I'm so excited for you to enjoy the book coming your way, "How the Irish Saved Civilization"! It will bless your socks off to see the work of God in Creation and His sovereign ability to take care of what belongs to Him and the power of His Word! I just need you to email me your mailing address! I thought I had your email saved - but I don't. Contact me at misskathypwp@gmail.com ASAP!!<br />Joy to you!!<br />KathyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
