It’s not that I can’t do this alone without God. It’s that I wouldn’t even want to.

The power of prayer is not that you can convince God to do anything but that by praying you show that you are convinced that that He is already willing. Praying to God is a confession of His character.

You are called to love the broken until they understand God’s love— a love that never dies— through you. Yes, God wants you to do signs and wonders. But the love of God manifested through you is what people really need. So you must first see His face. You must become so close to His very heartbeat that you can feel what others feel. I want to live as if I am hidden in His very heart, where His thoughts become my thoughts and His ways become my ways. This is how I will reach the world.

This is what heals your pains

Psalm 34:18 The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit. Psalm 147:3 He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. Revelation 21:4 He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.” 1 John 4:18 There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love. Psalm 32:10 Many are the woes of the wicked, but the LORD's unfailing love surrounds the man who trusts in him. Romans 8:38-39 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Isaiah 41:10 So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Psalms 34:17 When the righteous cry for help, the LORD hears and delivers them out of all their troubles. 1 Peter 5:7 Casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.

“Trust God from the bottom of your heart; don't try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for God's voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; he's the one who will keep you on track.” (The Message)

The simple things are also the most extraordinary things, and only the wise can see them.
