This week in worship everyone was given a Connected Living Journal. As you're finding God in your daily life, I would love it if you would post some of your stories for others to read. I think it would be a great way to share what God is doing in your life and it might just be the encouragement someone else needs.

LETThis is David Foster. On Wednesday I wrote in my journal that I had fallen off the roof of our house and banging myself up pretty good. But that's only the half of it. I landed headfirst on the concrete and am alive today to write you about it. I didn't even receive a bump on my head. It was as if God reached down with His angels and buffeted my head from the fall. A friend told me to read the 91st Psalm. And the 11th and 12th verse stuck out the most to me. It says"for He will give you angels charge of you to guard you in all your ways. On their hand they will bear you up, lest you dash your foot(or head) against a stone.(Or concrete)
Today I am affirmed in my faith that God has a purpose for me. I may be unclear about what that is, but it's nice to know I am where God wants me to be. And I have not served out my purpose yet on this earth. I am still a little banged up on my arms and back but had no broken bones. I would appreciate your prayers for my bruising to heal up and go away.
Thank you for for this another day, O Lord!

I am not journaling per se but I have found a renewed sense of God through numerous old friendships that have been rekindled in the last week. It's great hearing the ways that God has been touching the lives of those who love Him. That has been a blessing to me.
September 24
This morning I glanced at the clock as I sat down with a cup of coffee and a book of short devotionals. 5:59. I was actually running a little ahead of
schedule.
You see, time (or lack of it) has been my excuse for far too long as to why I'm not spending the time with God that He and I both desire. I had tried convincing myself (and God) that there's simply not enough time in the day to work a 12-hour shift, take care of a 14-month old, and manage to have any sort of a "quiet time". This morning, though, God convinced me otherwise.
For a couple of weeks, I've been spending just a few minutes before heading off to work reading and thinking on a short devotional. After this morning's reading, I set down my book and did a double-take at the clock on my way upstairs. 5:56.
The house was fairly dark this morning. And maybe I read the clock wrong the first time as I sat down with my coffee. Maybe my eyes are as bad as my husband says they are. But maybe God was just happy to have started my day with me. Maybe He did turn my clock back and give me back those few minutes that I chose to give to Him today.
Making time for God is really important. I know their are days when I get so busy that God is the furthest thing from my mind, but I started listening to that small still voice in the back of my head. And it says "come now you have time for everybody but me?" And really I have more time for God, than the average person. For me it's a matter of getting my priorities straight. I often pray God convict me of sin righteousness and judgment. And inevitably he points out the amount of time I spend with him. But he lovingly takes me back time and time again.(Sounds like Israel, time and time again.) Kristi thanks for sharing your struggles to in this area.
God Bless

God has been doing some major "stepping-up" I guess I could say, in my life! I'm not a perfect Christian... I will say... But, something happened in my life tonight that made me so appreciative of my Lord and Savior! I truly believe and trust in Jesus Christ! I certainly believe with my heart and soul that He watches over me! My job is kind of a service job. I greatly deal with the public... (not that I'm ashamed of my job at all) I want to do better, but, at this point I'm striving to better myself! I had a couple come into my place of employment who really blessed me tonight! They asked me what I would like them to pray for (for me) after I 'served' them... I told them... "prosperity"! God bless this couple ten-fold!!! It is God's flock who continue to bless me at my weakest moments and to God and His sheep I give praise to! I cant explain the overwhelming feeling of joy that went through my heart! But, I can say, with this message, how grateful this couple made me feel! I want no sympathy from any one person and God knows my troubles... "If HE brings you to it... He will bring you through it". I'm astonished sometimes how "He works in his mysterious ways" But I know in my heart He is always there for me! I just felt a notion to post my thankfulness on this comment blog and to tell people here... GOD is Real!!!
Bless the Bakers!

I just have to leave another comment of how I am impressed of followers who use His Name as... "He, His, Him, Ours, God, Jesus"... etc.!!! It's all capitalized the way it should be!!! I get so annoyed of people who don't use Him as a Father at some chat sites I go to! I do correct them always! Thank you for this site! God bless us all!!!
In Jesus' Precious name
~AMEN~
