I have recently learned that a couple I have known for 11 years just seperated. My best friend is having a trying time in her relationship. And the couple from church that I mentioned a while back, the father left his family. It was a big deal at church last night, because he was head deacon and the rest of the family is very involved in everything the church does. To me, they were a pretty great family. I am in shock, and my heart breaks not only for them, but for everyone I just mentioned.
I have wondered in the past how when people say the Lord spoke to them one way or another, how exactly they knew that. It never really clicked to me. Lately, however, I have certain people pop into my heart and I just say a prayer for them. I don't know what I'm praying for, I just pray. In the past few days, I have been told why I needed to pray for two of the people that God put on my heart. I get it now. Maybe I was expecting the clouds to open, or hear a deep voice in my head that would talk to me. But what happened was that their names just popped into my head, and I felt the need to pray.
Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need. Hebrews 4:16
