praying jabez

His mercy flows in wave after wave, on those who are in awe before him. ~ Luke 1:49, The Message



Open my eyes so I can see what you show me of your miracle-wonders. ~ Psalm 119:18, The Message

Like Jabez, I pray that God will bless me indeed. I pray that Jesus will expand the horizons before me, that His hand will always be upon me through his Spirit, and that He will keep me far from evil. Good prayers, every one. As I daily pray like Jabez, life gets increasingly interesting. The more I expect to see God working in my life, the closer I feel to him, and the more miracles I see.

Keep your eyes open for God, watch for his works; be alert for signs of his presence. ~ Psalm 105:5, The Message

  3. Yes, I do believe in miracles! I also believe that God will answer our Jabez-like prayers, and amaze us with His blessings, leadings, and miraculous wonders. We just have to keep our eyes & ears open, looking and listening to Him.

    One of my favorite verses (it's hard to pick just one!) is Jeremiah 33:3.

  4. Love the painting! Your blog is uplifting and reassuring. Do you sell your artwork? Are you on Etsy? Just wondering.
