Too Personal

I just wrote a big long post pouring out my soul, and then realized that it probably wasn't right for me to "air out my dirty laundry" here on the WWW. Can I just ask for your prayers instead? I'm in a bit of a valley here, and I'm not sure which way to turn. Satan is attacking my heart, I'm hurting, and I need to know what to do. Any prayer will do - short and sweet - but could you just send one up when you are done reading this post? Your prayers have helped in the past, and I'm hoping they will help again.


I lift up my eyes to the hills—
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the LORD,
the Maker of heaven and earth.
He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;
indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.
The LORD watches over you—
the LORD is your shade at your right hand;
the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.
The LORD will keep you from all harm—
he will watch over your life;
the LORD will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.
~ Psalm 121 ~

I pray that God would pour out His blessing on you, cradle you in His hand through this valley, and give you comfort and peace.

I will keep you in my prayers!
It would be so great if we could meet sometime! Too bad the blogger-get-together didn't work out!

I pray for a fresh annointing through God's word....I pray that His word would be living and active in your life, and I pray that new revelation would come as you soak up His promises.

It's so hard to not go running to 'people', instead of running directly to the one true source. I'm encouraged and blessed that you decided to ask for prayer instead of pouring yourself out to the wrong source. May God bless your obedience.

Hi Heather - I have to catch up on a few posts here since I haven't had much time to read blogs this week. First of all, yay for getting some clear direction about the milk situaiton. I'm glad you were able to come to a decision! Also, Keziah is suddenly getting weird with her naps too. I read somewhere that at this age they become a lot more "aware" and fight their sleep more because they want to be where the action is. Could be true I guess.

As for the valley you're going through - I'll keep you in my prayers. Good scripture reminder by the way...

And yes, I'd love to see you if you are coming through Abbotsford! We'll definitely make something work. Do you have family in Kelowna that you're going to see?

Anyway, talk to you again soon. You can always email me at invitemetojamiesblog@hotmail.com

Hi Heather, I read your blog all the time but have never commented. My name is Jessica and I'm a friend of Rebekah's from Bible school. I will definitely be praying for you.

Heather -
I am praying for you. I have been going through a bit of a valley myself this week, so I can empathize. Thanks for the reminder of Psalm 121, He will give the help we need!

i've been in valleys - i'm STILL in the valley. i wonder all the time which path to take to find the way out...so that i can be on the mountaintop again. it's a slow process. it's agonizing. it's emotionally draining. and sometimes i feel like i'm being punished! BUT one thing has been true through ALL situations...and even as i am deep in the valley right now - i can say it and believe it with ALL of my heart: HE IS FAITHFUL. HIS MERCIES HAVE NO END. HE IS HOLDING YOU. HE WILL FILL YOUR HEART WITH PEACE. HE WILL PROVIDE. HE LOVES YOU.

and i love you, and i will pray for you my friend. you are a strong woman, i know you will be ok.
