"Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in it's various forms. If anyone speaks, he should do it as one speaking the very words of God." I Peter 4: 10-11


Dear Reader- This Blog started in February of 2011 and the pages are numbered. Please begin reading on Page One and continue from there. As you move down the path of the pages it is my hope that scripture astounds you and God, Himself, is revealed.

Scripture confirms that if you acknowledge God as God and draw close to His truths He will draw close to you! As you get to know God through scripture you will begin to see Him work in your life AND hear Him speak to your heart. It is not an audible voice but an inner one-that will change your life on earth...and beyond!

To walk a little deeper each page has a song recommendation that deepens the spiritual lesson. Each song has been specifically chosen and holds a message that should not be missed. If there is not a link to the song on the page, it is recommended that you use iTunes, YouTube or another source to download these songs so that you can move deeper into spiritual truths that the song writers and musicians have creatively written about- for your blessing and God's glory!

A Spiritual Exercise- Page Page 74


"God is spirit 
and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth."
John 4:24

Prayer brings us to the heavenlies; 
 Prayer ushers us directly into God's holy throne room; 
it literally brings us into the presence of our living Lord.

We seek answers when we pray-not sure what to expect 
or how we will receive those answers; 
but we pray-seeking refuge, seeking comfort, 
seeking understanding regarding our earthly problems.  
Prayer is a time spent in the spiritual realm
 as we bow or kneel, here earth-bound.

Let's remember that prayer is a spiritual exercise!  It is the human way of communing with the Spiritual.  Once we understand what prayer really is many avenues of communication open up; Avenues of prayer that lead us out into the wide-open confounds of our mind; or our spirit! THAT is place were we can find our spiritual God.

Scripture says "Draw close to the Lord and He will draw close to you." (James 4:8) This a spiritual meeting-of-the-minds; One that allows us to see things we couldn't; hear things we wouldn't; learn things we would have otherwise missed and understand things that would have otherwise remained hidden for our spiritual meeting place is, for sure, a mystery.

Scripture also says: "Seek first the Kingdom of God and all His righteousness then all these things will be added to your life." There are many ancient writings that guide us in this way....but we must heed that calling to "seek HIM first".

Want to change your prayer life?  Want to literally have your precious prayers answered?  Then, don't just read the Word, DO what it says.  This too is scriptural:

"Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves.  Do what it says."
James 1:22

We've been given three specific directives in this writing; Draw close; Seek Him; Be obedient!  There are many more.  To find them you must seek them! They are pressed within the earthly manuscripts we call the Holy Bible.  Within it's pages you will find answers and much wisdom...... and hear the Voice of God-which is His written Word!

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."
John 1:1

Amen and Amen

"Knock and the door will be opened unto you; 
seek and and you shall find.  Ask and it will be given unto you."
  Matthew 7: 8
