"Sweet and Sassy" Praying with Purpose

The road I traveled wasn't always paved, so I kicked up a lot of dust for a lot of years. I live in a small community, and everybody pretty much knew everybody else's business, not that I was trying to keep it a secret. Don't misunderstand me. It's not that I was proud of what I was doing. I was just determined. Everything changed for me in 2012. I had an encounter with Jesus, and I haven't been the same since. I got clean and began to live for the Lord. In that same year, I began to post a prayer for the day and a coinciding thought for the day on social media. The response took me by surprise! I was saying things others wanted to hear but didn't for fear of being judged! Being judged was nothing new to me, and I'm sure not afraid to talk about what no one else will, but today I choose to talk about the goodness and mercy of Jesus Christ. Each prayer written came from a heart sincere and at times are very personal. I pray you find strength in my words. God bless.
