Welcome to the herd!

And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds. Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching. Hebrews 10:24-25

Can You hear me now?

Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.
James 5:16

Good morning ladies,

Do you ever feel like your prayers are not heard? I do. I know it isn’t true, that Jesus always hears my prayers but sometimes the line between us seems fuzzy.

Joshua and Abigail are wonderful dogs. I love them to death. But they have one REALLY bad habit. They like to eat clothing.

Sometimes I catch them in the act, other times I can just tell by the way they are behaving that they have done something wrong.

The same is true of children, you might not know what they have done, but you can tell by their actions they have done something.

The same was true of Adam in the garden, when he sinned and ate the apple-his behavior changed. For the first time he hid from God because he was ashamed.

Probably the same is true of us. When there is sin inside of us it changes our behavior. We try to act like everything is fine, but God, who knows our heart, is not fooled. But He is forgiving.

If you are in place where God feels distant, perhaps it feels like He is not listening to you, ask Him to show you if there is any unconfessed sin in your life that is causing the problem.

Then confess it and allow God to restore clear communication.

Love,
Jill
