“I’m too young to do anything. I don’t know much yet.”

“It’s so hard growing up, I think I’m too messed up right now to do that.”

“Life is just so full. I’m just so busy I have no time to do what I’d really like to do.”

“I have to raise this family right now.”

“I get too tired easily now, I don’t think I could still do that.”

“I’m too old now. I won’t be able to do that anymore.”

How about you? What is your excuse?

A Different Prayer Blogcarnival 03.21.09

Welcome to the March 21, 2009 edition of a different prayer.

Minister Mamie L. Pack presents No one and Nobody posted at The Life I Now Live.

christiantwopointoh presents What Does Your Heart Break For? posted at Christian2.0, saying, “What stirs your affection? Once you’ve stumbled beyond the perception you create for others to admire, what do you truly love? Who do you truly love?”

Yolanda Lehman presents I’M STANDING IN THE NEED OF PRAYER posted at Ain’ta That Good News?!, saying, “Yolanda Lehman offers a fresh perspective on the importance of attending to our own relationship with Christ, rather than judging others. As we humbly cry, “I’m standing in the need of prayer,” God hears and answers our prayers.”

Hopeful Spirit presents Affirmation of Faith posted at On the Horizon, saying, “A true story about a signed received . . . of faith, belief, and hope.

Jeremy presents Articles – I Dare You to Move posted at yourchristianvoice.

presents My Tao Te Ching Experiment posted at Richard Shelmerdine – life views from a student of life.

Victor Schultz presents St. Peters Square and Plaza | St. Peters Square, Vatican City posted at St. Peters Square, Vatican City, saying, “I had the great pleasure on touring the Vatican, St. Peter’s Basilica, and the Sistine Chapel. I wanted to give you just a glimpse of what you might see, if you were to visit the Holy See in Vatican City, Rome, Italy. Obviously, any tour of the Vatican is best in person. If you cannot go there, then a tour with pictures is perhaps the second best approach to seeing the Vatican and all the beauty and splendor that it has to offer.”

Pregnancy Hut presents Bringing Home Baby – Preparing for Your First Few Days as a New Mom posted at Pregnancy Calendar, saying, “When you are expecting, you will likely spend so much time preparing for your delivery that you forget to plan for the first few days at home.”

That concludes this edition. Submit your blog article to the next edition of a different prayer using our carnival submission form. Past posts and future hosts can be found on our blog carnival index page.

Feeling Out of Control?

feeling out of control
Have you ever felt at times like you were out of control?  There are only 3 things that can be in control:

 -other people

(when I don’t exercise my powers and I don’t allow God to exercise His in my life)
“I am powerless, I will not exercise control because I cannot exercise it anyway.”

 
-me

(when I exercise my powers)
“I am in charge. Things will happen according to my will.”

 -God

(when I allow God to exercise His powers in mine)

I do the best I can to achieve my desires.
When things don’t turn out exactly according to plan,
I do not lose hope nor let others take away my power.
I surrender to God instead. It will be done in a better way
than I’ve ever expected it.
