the sign that reads "prayers accepted"

"And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened." Luke 11:9 -10

I have been asking God all summer for several things, but the main one being a J - O - B!

I pray for a job, and I also pray for love. And I mean true love. I am not saying that tomorrow I want to meet a man and have him come sweep me off my feet and wham bam thank you mam there it is .... I want to meet a man, befriend him, have love for one another as people develop, and then take it from there, eventually falling in love. I want to know what it is like to have an adult relationship progress at a normal level. And, I don't want to do the awkward first date thing. I really truly want to fall in love with someone that I already love as a friend. To me, that seems so much better. I want to know what it is like to be with someone that actually deserves me and appreciates me. I don't know when that is going to happen, but I do pray for it every day.

I pray for my family. I know everyone has family issues, but I know mine are extreme and elevated. With that being said, I pray for my family because I know eventually everything will fall back on me. I pray that when it does I will be ready.

I pray for my friends, and particularly one who is going through a really hard time right now. Some major life decisions are being made by this individual and I hope that they are the right ones.

I will continue to ask until He provides the solutions and answers to all of my prayers. And I know that He will.

Simple story, huh?

So ... I hold up a sign to the world that reads, "Prayers Accepted."
