I’ve been praying more now than ever before. Sometimes when we are down, we question our faith. Are you are like me? Do you wonder if God is listening and watching?
So, what can you do? I’m not an authority on this. I’m just sharing my ups and downs as I go along. One idea that seems to be helping me combines prayer and focus. I purchased a composition book and started writing down any prayers that have been answered. Whenever I think of an answered prayer from any time in my life, I write it down.
Recent prayers become more memorable, but looking back I realize that many have actually been answered. Many times they were answered in a different time frame and in an unexpected manner.
I’ve been stressed and praying for peace. It is very cool that unexpected people have called or texted me and helped that along. My community of friends and God friends has been wonderful. As a guy who likes to go off by myself and focus, I have found myself reaching out and finding more support than I expected.
It seems to be helping me. Would that kind of focus help you?
Thank you, God, for Grace, Truth, Love, and Laughter,
Darren

Darren,
I really enjoy your God Blog. It’s clear that you love the Lord, and it’s very refreshing to be able to see articles about faith among all the other stuff out there – especially from someone who spends their time in the spotlight! So, thank you very much!
Thanks for your free presentation that you gave last week. I enjoyed it, and I hope to find time to attend some of your other events or online/recorded training later on. The tips were very helpful, and I like your approach.
Have a very blessed week!
