Faith Filled Friday & Yearning for Jesus

9/25/2014

11 Comments

 
This broken world makes me yearn... So many sad things, so many hard things. How desperate we are for Jesus to come back and make things right. To live with Him without pain, without sadness, without broken.
Jesus is the answer and will always be the answer. His plan is a good plan. His plan is full of rescue and redemption. 
Remembering this today. And driven to pray for our broken world.

"Prayer is weakness leaning on omnipotence." - W. S. Bowden

"Satan trembles when he sees the weakest saint upon his knees."  William Cowper

Faith Filled Friday Blog Link Up

We exist to glorify God, to display His heart and character. And I just love how we are all uniquely built to do that. So every Friday I want to give you, uniquely designed by God, an opportunity to link up your thoughts on God, art, baking, photography, parenting, marriage, homeschooling, writing or blogging and more if they tie into or display the Lord somehow. 

So go ahead and link up below by clicking the link below and following the prompts.
Please just let your readers know by including a link at the bottom of your post (or somewhere on your side bar) or put my button code (found below and on the side bar) so they can find these other great people glorifying God and we can continue to grow as a community. Thanks! 

And in effort to encourage others in their writing by faith, please take a minute to comment on another sweet lady's post.

Thank you for such an encouraging post. I especially love this quote you wrote:
"Satan trembles when he sees the weakest saint upon his knees. William Cowper"

I love it because it is encouraging the no matter how weak I am or feel, God's strength enables me to fight in this spiritual battle.

I am looking to the Lord as my heart is heavy with the sadness and tragedy that is a constant threat to roll up on my newsfeed. Yes - the Lord is returning and my desire is to see Him make all things right - all things under His authority. God be with hurting people all over the world tonight . . .
Joy!

I love that Bowden quote. It helps, I think, to imagine prayer as this weakness leaning on someone infinitely strong. Thank you for joining up with Unforced Rhythms.
