Today is Tuesday, August 9th, 2005; Karen's Korner #607

Since I send out a daily inspirational email, I attract others who send me things that they write and email on a daily or periodic basis. Within the last few weeks, I have been getting items from Shirley Choat.
 
Today's was talking about Jesus walking on water. This is her prayer at the end of the writing:
 
PRAY - Dear Jesus, help me to listen to Your word and believe it. Amen
 
I don't think I do too bad in the "listening" part. It is in the believing part, I would like to do better!
 
Just think if all of us who call ourselves "Christians", actually believed all of the things we are promised in the Bible!
 
We would know how much God loves and cares for us! We would love ourselves as much as God loves us; and then we would return the favor by loving all the people God puts in our paths. We would believe He has only good things in store for each one of His Children! We would believe in His power, not ours! Like Peter, we would be able to 'walk on water'; if not physically...emotionally, physically, spiritually! And the list goes on and on....
 
Yes, I think my prayer needs to be like Shirley's: "help me, Jesus, to listen to Your word and then to believe what it is You tell me........"
