Thankful Thursday

Thursday, February 2, 2012

Amidst my busy schedule, I'm thankful that even when my prayer is short, I know God hears them.  When I don't know what to say, I can pray in the Spirit.  I thank God that He doesn't require us to pray lengthy and  with flowery words before He hears us.  I thank God that all I need to do to be heard is to pray from the heart.  


What are you thankful for this week?

For more Thankful Thursday, visit Iris over at Grace Aone.

Amen Pia.

I am thankful for the mild winter here. The family has been able to play for long periods of time outside for the past two days--not something we are able to usually do this time of year.

Amen, so very true.

I'm feeling the same, Pia. I'm just grateful God knows best what the outcomes should be and that all I have to do is cry out to Him.

Hi Pia...visiting from Thankful Thursday. I'm thankful for time before Him and knowing that when I pray He bends down to listen.

Have a great weekend!

I love how you have put it "...no need for flowery prayers" :) I am sometimes left without words, but the Lord knows my heart.

Thank you so much for sharing your grateful heart with us this week.

Love & peace,
Iris

Oh yes, there are times when I pray on my way to work. Sometimes I don't even have the words to speak but the Holy Spirit interprets them for me. How precious is that?

You are a blessing.

Love,
Debbie

Yes, prayer need not be lengthy and flowery but must come from the heart. There are really countless things we ought to thank God for in our lives. Thanks for the post. God bless you always.
