Have you ever gone through times when you are at a loss for what to do?
I have reached that point with some things.
I am a person who wants to know NOW! I don't like to wait. I don't like to be in the unknown. I don't like to get to the end of me.
But, I find that those are the times when God does amazing things.
Right now, I am struggling. I'm watching so many people give into satan and sin. I'm seeing so many friends reach a point of hopelessness. I'm at a loss for what to do. Pray is what I do, but I don't even know what to pray anymore.
I am a flood of emotions: joy for the positive moments, anger at their decisions, frustration from not knowing how to help, sadness for the pain that is so evident.
Lord, you know all. You know hearts, you know choices, you know the way the enemy can sink his teeth in. I'm begging you to make your presence known in these lives. Let your love pour over them. Lord, open their eyes and hearts to YOU. For you are the mightly healer. Only you can satisfy. And help those of us who care to believe that you are in control.

Dina, I hear your pain and know first hand that same difficulty. Be persistant in asking for your friend to come to the Lord, I believe that it will happen, in His time.
laurie...that's the biggest struggle - my friend knows Jesus, but has put him on the back-burner! It is so frustrating. BUT, I know that God is in control and I just keep leaning on him and trying my best to trust HIM with this...
Dina.. you are so good at taking on other's burdens. I think you are doing what you can.. just keep up the praying and reaching out. Love ya.
