Tom Branch - Roads of Faith

In your anger do not sin: Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry...(Eph 4:26)

Last ngiht I went to bed rather well slightly angered. But I did pray on it and then had some wild dreams where I was riding in a car and the guy backed up into a river where we rolled up the windows and the air prssure was killing me....then I woke up. Last ngiht was wild as I did not sleep rather I had a series of naps.

Back to the point I sent out an email last night before I prayed and all that good stuff. This morning I looked back on it and It seemed much more harsh than how I meant it to be last night. But I made a phone call this morning and got things reconciled and understood. But for the fact is I was thrown off by even my own words, well then again that's not hard to do.

But the great part is connecting and understanding.

Now as far as my prayer life...it's getting better. I am trying to seek him more. Like it was put to me the other day it's much like a marriage, where in order to get that relationship to work we have to make effort when we do not feel like it. Now this is not the case yet if we take the behind the scenes stuff goin on, it's the same. Sometimes we cannot sit and be aprt ourselves, we have or need to be there for others, including God.

I still look back to the other night where we all held hands and did the lord's prayer. That felt great.

Also I have noticed that starting a day in prayer and focused, work tends to go much better. Well therre is still LOTS left to be desired, but it just seems to click better.

In my prayers I ask for his will be done, by the teachings of Christ, and the acknowledge and acceptance of the holy spirit during the day. Ask for me to feel it and know it is there. Rather than just go and do whatever and forgetting the power that is there all around.
