the Lord Jesus saw her faith and the woman's daughter was healed that very hour
every so often, i feel so desperate i yearn for crumbs ... for whatever little which may come my way or be proffered or i may scrounge
when the yearning gets so bad until it hurts and i can barely breathe
when only dry heaves and moans come forth as tears seem to have dried up
but the Lord is good, strong, faithful and mighty
despite all and sundry (except the few true ones) continuing with their self-righteous judgment
the Lord succored and continues to uphold me
with love and gentle compassion
without condemnation
and others who uphold in prayer
and i'm reminded of His love for me
reminded that i carry His spiritual DNA
that i am His child and the apple of His eye
having my love acknowledged without prejudice, bias or condemnation
the Living God truly is a gentle, compassionate, merciful and loving God
who knows all and is in control at all times
Abba Father
thank You ... more than words can ever say
more than i shall ever know all You have done and continue to do for me
thank You
and by faith i receive Your promises, deliverance and blessings with thanksgiving
i receive Your promise that Your thoughts of me are of peace, not of evil, to give me an expected end (KJV) NIV: For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
i receive Your promise that restoration of my locust years is on its way Joel 2:25
i receive Your promise that You will complete the good work You have begun in me

as i strive to draw close to Thee O Lord, i trust in You and Your promises and no matter how tempting it maybe, help me to no longer settle but to wait upon You for Your best for me, my future Ruth
even so, i speak Your promises unto my life and speak life unto all aspects of my life Ezekiel 37
i speak Your victories unto my life in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth
and i pray the succor, upholding, encouragement and peace upon my brothers and sisters who, like me, have no one else and nowhere else to turn to but You, Father unto the fatherless
lead us by the hand, Father, and walk us through the new doors You have opened for us
lead us by the hand, Father, and never let us go, please
lead us by the hand, Father, in the way we should go, the way You have ordained for us
in Jesus' name, amen
