Ahhhhh......Don't you just L-O-V-E Fridays?! It seems that no matter how deep in despair I am on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, by Friday I am miraculously transformed!!! Sometimes it is sudden and at other times it will be a gradual undertaking. I get "my Praise on" sometime during the day on Wednesday. During the work day, on Thursday, I just have to do the "Thursday DANCE". My friend, Melissa, usually joins me which makes it even better. Imagine! Two grown women doing a "Thursday Dance".....at a middle school!!!! The kids love it! No, it is not always easy. We have to work at it some days, but it usually gets accomplished. Then.....wait for it.....here it comes........................BAM! Friday has arrived! Whoop!
My friend, Butch, has won two, count them....one, TWO people to the Lord within two weeks. How amazing is that?! My prayer is to lead someone to the Lord. To watch them transform into the likeness of our Father.
I want the boldness that Butch and John the Baptist have/had (hum.......they are similar in a few ways! JK!), the passion that Rizpah had, the wisdom of Solomon, and the....well, I already have the dancing feet of David! On Thursdays anyway! LOL!
Rom.12
[2] And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Isa.1
[18] Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
My Prayer:
Lord, help me to allow you to transform me into Your likeness. Renew my mind and my spirit. Give me passion, boldness, courage and wisdom to win someone to Your kingdom. Help me to remember that no matter how sinful of a state that man can get himself/herself into, You are able to wash it away....ALL away.
