it's sooo hot in waterloo!! ahhhh.... almost unbearable... oh well!!! i must learn to be thankful for the hot weather, espeically when i constantly wish for it during the winter months =P

i've been thinking recently....

do i seek God every single day? Do i seek His kingdom? Do i continually renew my mind so that i can be transformed? and really, after pondering about it for awhile...i really cannot truthfully say that i do... i think that i just gotta keep intentionally doing it so that it becomes a natural part of me... tis very hard =P i really do see God working in my life and in the lives of those around me... but does that mean i seek him daily? perhaps not...

"as you walk with God, your faith will grow, your confidence will increase, and your prayer will have power..." hmmm...i defintitely agree with this statement by Bill Hybels... it kinda describes my walk with God starting at the beginning of first year till now... i really do see God's power moving mountains in the lives of those around me...

but this thought keeps popping in my mind.... why is it that i pray so fervently for someone (something) and then i see God's answers to prayer... and then i keep praying for a bit..then slowly, my thoughts and prayer shift elsewhere... sometimes i feel like God keeps giving me these new passions that I truly feel compelled to pray fervently for... but as these passiosn arise, some of the old passions kinda fade... and the less i think of those.. but they are in just as much need of prayer as my new passions... i do not know why this happens.... is it wrong??

thinking....

Romans 8:26 - 27
" In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intervedes for us with groans that words cannot express. And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God's will."

perhaps that is the answer...
