Dear Lord,

I feel far away from you today, I don't know why but I feel as though I am going through the motions and lacking your presence in my life. I cam across a thought today. A kid from church asked if I was going to be attending the morning meetings I replied that I would not be because I will be studying, he then prompted that I should have faith that God will help me and that I should show up. In my head I was thinking "gee I really wish that was the way it was, but really its quite different". I became angry at my lack of trust. What good is a christian that doesn't put their faith in the one that saved them. God, teach me to trust you, remind me that I love you. Keep me away from distractions that pull me further from you.

Amen

Dissappointment

Dear God,

Today I am a bit angry, I am sad, I prayed to you for deliverance, and I feel as though I didn't pray at all, instead of doing well or achieving victory, I failed worse then I have before. I am afraid to pray. I am afraid to trust, or believe or hope. I want to keep having faith, but i keep getting disappointed. I am scared. Tell me what to do.

Amen

Deflated

Dear God,

Teach me not to feel defeated in prayer.

Amen

Prayers Unheard

Dear Lord,

Sometimes I can't help but think that all of the goodness in my life is not because of my prayers but rather, others' prayer on my behalf. Don't get me wrong, (I highly doubt that you ever do) I am very grateful for these prayers and their effect of abundance on my life. My problem is my fear that MY prayers are being unheard. Father I want to love you. I want to be yours. I want you to be proud of me. But i fail almost all the time. God I want you to hear my prayers. The ones I say at night or in the shower or in the car or when no one else is listening. I want you to provide for me because I prayed and because you are MY God , MY Rock, and MY savior. I am blessed beyond words because of others' prayers and you bless me because of your love for them BUT I WANT TO BE BLESSED BECAUSE OF YOUR LOVE FOR ME!!! Because I am your child. I want you to hear me. Teach me to be less of a failure and more of a prayer warrior. Teach me to draw near to you. Teach me to love and be loved. Good night dear Jesus.

Amen

Overwhelmed

Dear God,

Today I am feeling a bit overwhelmed. one minute I think I have got it and I am on top of my game and the next minute I am just as lost as when I started out. Teach me lord to take it one step at a time and to keep trusting in you. To know that all things work together for the good of those that trust in you. I pray for your strength. Good Night.

Amen

Favors

Dear Lord,

It seems that I ask you for alot of favors. I woke up this morning asking for a favor that was undeserved then later in the shower I noticed I was asking for another small favor. I don't know how many small or big favors I ask you through-out the day. Sometimes I wonder is there a bank of mercy and does it ever run out or go into deficit. Although my heart knows the answer my mind often wonders. Thanks for the ones you have answered so far. Please remember that normally those undeserved favors are asked in desperation to a savior I know is merciful.

Amen

Dear Lord,

You know the secret desires of my heart. The ones that i cannot even fathom voicing out-loud. I know that you hear each cry and you see each tear that falls. I pray that in due time you will cause a change. I thank you for all that you have done and all that you are going to do.

Amen

Words of the Heart

Dear Lord:

"Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heard be acceptable unto your sight oh lord"
Psalm 19:14

How much of what I pray is honest? Are the words that I am speaking coming from my heart or from my head? Father let me speak honest words of true feelings rather the rehearsed lines. You know my heart and my inner most thoughts. Help those thoughts and desired be more focused on you and your will. Even this request let it be my earnest desire rather then a fancy way to fill a post. Lord I am still waiting.

Amen

Expectations

Dear Lord,

I am waiting for a response to my prayers. Although to be quite honest I haven't been praying too hard. I am not anxious. I have found that the things that I am least anxious about or that I don't expect for you to do, you make happen in miraculous ways. I find that I have a weird memory problem whenever it comes to remembering your goodness in my time of need. I trust you. Teach me to keep trusting you. Thanks for your love.

Amen

Dear Lord,

Today was a relatively inconsequential day. Nothing really important happened. Thank you for keeping me and my family safe and for letting nothing bad happen to us. Help me to grow closer to you.

Amen

P.S.- I owe you 30$

Letter from a constant rock tapper

Dear Lord,

I find it hard at times to understand your immeasurable forgiveness. Can you really forgive me for things that I have repeatedly done wrong? Your mercy makes me marvel. Sometimes I think back to Moses and the promise land. He tapped the rock rather then do what you asked and was not permitted to step into the promise land after a forty year journey. I am more then sure I have thrown the rock at times, done far worse then Moses, yet you are much gentler with me. God I thank you for remembering my fragile state when dealing with me. Thank you for understanding and loving me and for never giving up, even when I seem like a lost cause.

Amen

Good Intentions

Dear Lord,

Sometimes I want to be the best that I can be. I want to achieve everything I can for your kingdom and have all of the fruit and gifts of the spirit. Sometimes I LOVE you so much that I can't describe it. But dear lord, that's not how I always feel. Sometimes I feel lost and far away from you or maybe alone. Teach me dear lord to be the best I can be for your kingdom at all times and not just in spurts. Teach me to love you with all that I am even when I don't feel like it. Good Night.

Amen

Why do you love me?

Dear Lord,

Why do you love me? Today I am amazed by all that you have done for me even though I am undeserving. Sometimes I wonder why you just don't give up. I am thankful for your patience. Teach me to love you. Thank you for all you have done.

-Amen

About:

The real letters that I want people to read and get inspiration from are those I write to God. Cause in the end its your relationship with him that matters.

Who is He: The maker of heaven and earth, the alpha and the omega, he is savior and redeemer, father and friend. (How else can you describe God?)

What He Did: John 3:16- For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that who ever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life

How can you get to know him: Accept him as your personal savior and into your heart and begin to get to develop a relationship with him.

Dear Lord,

I want you to meet_____. They want to get to know you better

Amen
