Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer. From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I. For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy. - Psalm 61
Lord, today (this day) I thank you for paying attention to the pleas and cries of your people. We are people who hunger and thirst for you in this dry place. We long to know your presence in a real way. We ask of you to show us your glory, and to see your glory we humble ourselves and shed the fleshly and carnal attitude we've carried for so long. We have tried our way and have failed so many times. You and you alone can fill the void in our lives. We are empty and lifeless without you oh God. We cry unto you now to heal our hearts and to cause us to know your love, peace and joy. We have forsaken the the ways of this world, cause we hunger more for you. Forgive us now and restore unto us the joy of thy salvation. We thank you for always being our covering and protection, and giving us the miracle of life and restoration. We receive your healing, strength, love, peace, and joy. Thank you Lord.

The Quickest Way to Peace.
So you've gotten to this point in your life and you seem to be spending more time fixing things than you are progressing. It's like you get one thing kinda moving and functioning to some degree of normality only to have this other thing over here to fall apart and go in complete disarray. You can barely remember when there was a day that you could call normal. Yet you know that there is a place and a point that you desire to get back to where you will smile a sigh of relief and literally exhale.
Be assured that the God who is unlimited in His ability to perform anything, and who is never bound by time and location watches over you and still purposes to bring you to a place of clarity of mind, spirit and body. The existence of frustration, turmoil, and obstacles, sometimes provides exactly what we need to lead us to His feet. At His feet we benefit from the joy that comes from a humbled God encounter. Run to Jesus...It's the only way to Peace!
11Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.

Ten Great Ways to Dynamically Change Your Life Today!
Ten Great Ways to Dynamically Change Your Life Today!
Article Written by: Kenny Martin Jr.
Everyone says they're looking for a change and ready for a difference in their lives. Well here are ten ways in which you can begin to do just that.
1. Forgive someone that you have harbored ill feelings towards for a long time. Forgiveness frees your heart, mind, soul and body to live with more joy and peace. Many times the one who has wronged you is not even doing as well as you think, and more than likely have forgotten...It's time for you to move past it. Prayerfully and with a willing mind, God can heal your heart.
2. Learn something new each day.
Go to the library, and pick up a book and fill your mind with fresh knowledge, You will feel good about yourself, and the new information may prove more valuable than words could describe.
3. Open up your heart.
Be willing to start loving again. I know you may have been hurt before, but that was then and this is now. Love still works, and you deserve to know what it feels like.
4. Be a better Giver
Believe it or not, you will feel like a million bucks when you start to give to those in need. Try finding a charity, or even a single mother, a family, or a child in need. God gives wealth to those who will be a conduit to meet the needs of those who cannot do for themselves...Share the gifts.
5. Go for a walk.
Do you know that just taking a simple 10 minute walk everyday could drastically improve your health and physical shape. Additionally, it is such a great thing to go out and enjoy what God has made for His children to enjoy. You might even meet a neighbor or friend. Turn that T.V. off, and get off that sofa, and see what’s happening outdoors today.
6. Face your fears.
Are you afraid of heights, scared of the water, or just overly anxious about speaking in front of people. Well there are all sorts of classes available to teach you how to do just about anything you can imagine. Often times our fears are wrapped up in the unknowns of a thing. I’ll bet that if you take the time and learn more about just what it is you’re afraid of, that those fears might turn into cheers.(corny I know)
7. Start believing in something more.
It is so easy to refuse to accept and believe those things that we cannot see today. There is a tendency to want to wait for a thing to physically manifest itself before we will believe in it’s validity. This type of thinking may provide for a limited life. There are great joys available to all who are willing to step out in Faith, and allow Hopes and Dreams to have a place in our living. God according to His Word insists that Faith is the only thing that will get His attention for moving on our behalf. It’s the only way to see real change.
8. Spend Some Quality Time With Others.
Our lives can often become rather thick and busy with the hustle and bustle of work, school, soccer practice, bills, and business. There never really seems to be much time available for taking a breath and enjoying one another. Though we may drive to the game together or even to church, we often limit our dialogue to the concerns and cares of life. Even the phone calls we make to family may come only during times of issue, loss, turmoil, and frustration. Turn that around, and start enjoying the gift of family and friends while they are here.
9. Discover a New Hobby
There is so much joy to be found in discovering a new hobby. Take a break from the serious non stop activity, and find something new and fun to do that you’ve never done before. Go to the sporting goods store, the craft store, or the toy store and find a new way to enjoy your time, Be sure and make it something brand new and never before attempted.
10. Stop Complaining
Although it is easy to do, as you can see…it has done nothing. So stop this right away, and get started today and make a Change. Remember Change is not change until YOU CHANGE!
