Personal Prayer Writing, Blog Style

PRAYER WRITING, BLOG STYLE -                                           Tuesday, November 20, 2012


Hello to my  Dear Friends, Family, and Life Colleagues who happen to check in to see what's up with this particular blog.  :0 )

          This is my first blog. Not sure how to work this. I intend to use this blog as a type of diary, so to speak. It will not be anything like what most of you are familiar with. It is an extension of myself and in some ways might come across as ethereal. Just understand that I intend to share a part of myself that is deeply personal yet might come across as nondiscript. That's as best as I can explain it. In my own self I come across as someone with very little understanding or intelligence, yet my writing style reflects something quite different. Where my natural abilities in communication may be lacking, my writing seems to communicate in ways my mouth seems to be unable to.

          Mostly, I write prayers. I write to The One I know is truly accepting of me and that does not turn me blindly aside or treat me as if I have no right to life or am beneath contempt. And it is my heart felt prayer that this would not only open up a whole new world of greater good to me. But it is also my heart's cry that what is produced through the speech that emanates from my hands that it would be of great benefit and tremendous blessing to others who might find themselves in their own sight as nothing and nobody worth knowing or even setting eyes on. It is my sincerest hope that what you read in my postings will lift you up and encourage you beyond measure.

          No, I am nobody any more or less special than you. I have just found my niche and what makes me happiest and am still working on figuring out how to get what I do put into a format that will bless all concerned. I am just as human as anybody else with my own shortcomings and failings and humanistic ways, though my writings may not always reflect that. When I write it is as though I am taken into another dimension of life that transcends my own troubles. My focus gets redirected to something way better than I can even put into words. By nature I am a prayer writer. Some might view it as journaling, but God Himself correctly called me Prayer Writer, when I didn't even have a clue where to begin or how to even bill myself just to get started. A dear friend of mine refers to me as Prayer Warrior - and the best prayer warrior she has ever known. Whenever there's an issue going on in her life that she needs help with so that she either gets a better perspective on it or needs redirecting ques, I'm her go-to person for the job. Why? Because she knows that I really don't have the answers to what she needs but that God does; so in essence, I am her prayer-support.

              So, as I begin this journey of Prayer Writing, Blog Style, I pray that it will exalt Christ and glorify God, and bless all concerned - and even open up a world of more good than any of us have ever known before.
