Dear Praying Friends, I’m writing this on February 20,2026 and it’s been almost a month since I last wrote a post on the blog. But I have been journaling and praying and trying hard to listen to what God would say to me. A few weeks ago, I was in the prayer room in LaramieContinue reading “Restore to Us the Joy…”

Are You Washing Your Nets…
Dear Praying Friends, I am writing this on January 23, 2026 because the Lord woke me very early this morning to pray. My scripture reading this morning took me to Luke 5:1-11. (see below for link). The story is probably familiar to you as it was to me. Peter and the fishermen had been fishingContinue reading “Are You Washing Your Nets…”
Joy Comes in the Morning…
Dear Praying Friends, This is my first post for 2026. If you have been reading the previous posts you will know that in December the Lord was teaching me about weeping. I had a conversation during December with other Christians and we agreed that the Church doesn’t teach “lament” well. Some concluded that this mightContinue reading “Joy Comes in the Morning…”
Not Clothes, Or Toys or Banquets…Just Jesus
Dear Praying Friends, As I spent some extended time in silence with the Lord today an image began to form in my mind. I saw a Christmas tree with gifts under it. Jesus opened one of the gifts and out of it came His glorious light. Then a globe appeared over the tree and theContinue reading “Not Clothes, Or Toys or Banquets…Just Jesus”
I See a “Sea”…
Dear Praying Friends, It has been awhile since I have written anything here because life has been particularly challenging in these days. But even in the challenges, I feel compelled to pray on. Maybe even more so! This post has been in my heart since early December and today I feel that I should tryContinue reading “I See a “Sea”…”
All I Can Say is…Let us Pray!
Dear Praying Friends, Some days I just feel “numb” with the hurts of this world. In my last post, I spoke about the need to “weep” over the things that break God’s heart. What are those things? Well, I believe when God looks at lost and broken humanity, He weeps. Do I? Does His Church?Continue reading “All I Can Say is…Let us Pray!”
Show Us Your Glory, Lord as we press on!
Dear Praying Friends, I haven’t posted on the prayer blog for over a month because I have felt depleted spiritually. I realized this week that I haven’t been able to weep and weeping is what is needed. I have prayed, “Lord, help me to weep!” I know that sounds very strange, but I know thatContinue reading “Show Us Your Glory, Lord as we press on!”
Show Us Your Glory, Lord… October 12, 2025…Bringing Beauty for Ashes!
He Was Faithful Then…He’ll Be Faithful Now Dear Praying Friends, The word “faithful” has come up several times over the past few weeks. I think the Lord is reminding me that I need to keep reminding myself of His faithfulness. Maybe you do, too. The circumstances of the world can be very wearying. I heardContinue reading “Show Us Your Glory, Lord… October 12, 2025…Bringing Beauty for Ashes!”
Show Us Your Glory, Lord… October 5, 2025…Bringing Beauty for Ashes!
When You Can’t Fight the Good Fight… Dear Praying Friends, I listened to a song this morning that says that God will fight for me when I can’t fight for myself. But then I thought, “Am I supposed to be fighting for myself?” Scripture does tell us to “fight the good fight of faith.”(1 TimothyContinue reading “Show Us Your Glory, Lord… October 5, 2025…Bringing Beauty for Ashes!”
Show Us Your Glory, Lord… October 1, 2025…Bringing Beauty for Ashes!
Make Just One Someone Happy… Dear Praying Friends, For several days now I’ve had the song “Make Someone Happy” running in my head. I think we’d all agree that our Nation and our world is a pretty turbulent place right now. I believe that we don’t have to engage with the anger and strife butContinue reading “Show Us Your Glory, Lord… October 1, 2025…Bringing Beauty for Ashes!”
