Today has been so amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had to write a blog posts on my school break! Now that's huge!!!!
I went to work out and have my quiet time @ the river this morning for the first time in a looooooooooong time. I had to get my mind right for today!!!
I prayed on the way to the river that God would show me himself today! I know that God is with me and I know that He is working in and around my life all day! My prayer today was that I would see him!!!!!
While I was reading Psalm 46 Alonzo texted me to tell me to tell me that he had sent our friends, Shaunta and Eddie THAT VERY SAME PSALM .... Psalm 46....this morning!
Let's get this picture! I'm sitting in my car reading Psalm 46... meditating on God being my strength for homeschooling this year...thinking of having this as my verse for the year regarding homeschooling.
I get a text and see that it's Alonzo so I check it. He's texting me to tell me he. just. sent. that very SAME text to some friends of our. THE VERY SAME ONE I WAS READING THAT VERY MINUTE!!!!
Ok, I think you get the picture!!!
Then as soon as I walk in the door, my friend, Delta, texted me a prayer for my homeschooling day and she sent........ GUESS WHAT!!!
Psalm 46:1 with the text!!!
I said OK, OK, Lord I see you!!!
THEN
I got a facebook update to my phone from my friend, Nicole, and she was praying these exact words,
"praying that the Lord's presence will be STRONG in my life and in the lives of those around me this week!!!"
Wooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!! This was all before 10:00 a.m. this morning!!
I love the Lord. He heard my cry!!!!
Prayer is reall Yall!!!!
As I was praying today, I was thinking what if the Lord really did answer my prayer THIS VERY DAY!!!! What if I could clearly see the Lord working in my life TODAY!!!!
Boy, O, boy!!! I had no idea how quickly he would answer it!!!!!
Thank you Lord!!

Oh my! I was reading your post with my mom wide open!!! That is too much! After Zo sent the text, I read Ps. 46 and it was so good. I even wrote some of it in my journal. Ps. 46 was the one for today in the plan where you read every 30th Psalm for the month to read them all in one month (today is the 16th, so you would read Ps. 16, 46, 76, 106, 136). Do you and Zo do that or was that just the one God laid on your hearts for the day? Either way, what a blessing! I'm so glad today was a success. God is good...all the time! I'll keep praying!

Shaunta, I was reading it b/c it was the Psalm for the day. I'm not sure if Alonzo and Delta were reading it for that reason. It was so neat, though!!

The same way He encouraged you THAT day, He'll continue to do it throughout your entire time of homeschooling. I'm so happy for you. Praise God! Thanks so much for sharing!! Love ya!
