Crucial Encounter

Posted on January 21, 2009 - by Andy McMahon

Pray for me.

Prayer/Faith
  • The more I look around, read blogs, talk to people, the more cynical I get.
  • I read about my friends, and get judgmental.
  • I have a hard time praying for the people I am judging.
  • I have a hard time having trust in people.
  • In the morning, when I get ready, I listen to worship music. By noon, I’m not acting most of that worship out at all.
  • I have been so focused on pointing at others lately, I have taken little to no time to really focus on me.
  • I have a hard heart, and am filled with just as much anger and judgment as the people I say piss me off.
  • I feel guilty about all of this…… Most of the time.
  • I feel like I am really a bad friend.

There.  Those are my struggles.  Since I can’t seem to bring myself to pray about this stuff, maybe you can.  Do you have a list?  Post it as a comment, and maybe together we can pray through this stuff and grow together.  Maybe in this life we need this kind of stuff.  Maybe we all need each other a lot more than we like to admit.  So.. Let’s get started.

    Right now my biggest challenge is working through the realization that I am not bulletproof. There's lots of implications to that, so much so that it's keeping my (almost nonexistent) prayer life busy.

    I don't have a list-just pray that when I go back into the hospital next Monday they find the cause of my muscle weakness-and it isn't MS. Pray when they take me off of a couple Anti-seizure drugs, I don't go into Grand mal seizure-and we just find an answer.
    I pray your heart opens up-to letting others in…trusting others…to loving the music for Jesus-having it open your heart more-that no guilt weighs you down, Jesus loves you and washes it away-that anger is lifted and joy is brought in, in remembrance of all Christ has pulled you thru-and given to you…I pray Jesus has you focus on Him, then your family, work and church…and totally pray that none of blogs or twitters get to you-if anything you can turn to them with pure faith in Christ and share His word and the joy He gives you, and life He restored!! Jesus tells you now thru me, you aren't a bad friend-if you have this prayer of honestly up…may He bless your week ahead! God bless you in Christ's Love-Amen!
