Something New

Hi Friends...
If you're reading this you are missing the improved site
that is actually still at www.realnetta.com  but it NOT this.

friends did it!)

Anyway, if you're getting this to your email would you
PLEASE go to my new site and click on the envelope at
the top right of the site.  This will allow you to enter your
email address & start receiving my recent posts.
And make sure that when you get a "confirmation email"
to your inbox that you click on it so that my new posts
can be sent to you!

Thanks for reading my thoughts!
That encourages me & hopefully they encourage you, too!

HUGS!

It's NOT multiple choice







Yesterday I shared how worry & prayer don't mix.
Here's another thing Jesus has been speaking to me... 
and changing in me.







"Praying specifically" isn't about giving God several
specific ways to answer a prayer.
It's presenting specific needs to God. Period.
And letting Him do the answering.




Phil. 4:6
"Don’t worry about anything; 
instead, pray about everything. 
Tell God what you need
and thank him for all he has done.


If we get it into our heads that we must come up
with ways for Him to answer...


- it'll keep us from praying cuz when
we "don't know what to ask for"... 
- keeps us frustrated
- keeps us from experiencing miracles
- causes worry


Don't worry... INSTEAD... pray.
Tell God what you NEED.... and thank Him.


My prayers have turned from "not knowing what to
ask for" into something like this...


"Lord Jesus, we have _____ need and only you
can help us."
and
"Jesus, this ____ is so difficult! Please Help!"




Does this lesson from Philippians ring a bell with you?
