My week day mornings are crazy and rushed but I've found that I can take 5 minutes, right after I wake up, to sit on the edge of the bed and read some Word and pray. I've found that I look forward to it, that this is one of my favorite times of my day. Saturdays are my only day to sleep in a bit and to have a relaxed, extended time with God and that's my most favorite.
I've been impressed that I can't rely on yesterday's strength to keep me going through today's problems. I'm reminded of how in Exodus 16 God gave His people just enough manna to sustain them for that day. If they tried to take extra so they wouldn't have to go out and get it the next day, it became filled with maggots (except for the day prior to the Sabbath, because the Sabbath was the day for rest God let them gather up twice as much the day prior and the manna didn't go bad then).
Life brings so many challenges every day, and I realize more and more that I'm just not strong enough, smart enough, creative enough, or energetic enough to do it on my own. I need to be connected to God my source. A favorite author of mine, Richard Foster, through his books taught me about a Quaker practice called centering. Unfortunately, there's some controversy about centering prayer, but for me all it means is to get rid of all the other distractions of life and give myself anew to God, to seek to become more sensitive to God's Holy Spirit within me. I like the word centering because it represents how I want my life to be centered on Christ.
I find that without that time daily I still become centered, only it's on me and not on Him.

I find myself most in need of prayer when I haven't been in His presence, yet I find myself more desiring of His presence the more I pray.
I am Doris used every single spell worker on the internet, spent untold amounts of money and discovered they are all fakes...i was the fool though; doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. In the end, I decided that I wanted a tarot reading to know what my future held for me; I contacted a woman who lives locally to me and she told me about a man named (Priests Meruja); he does not advertise on the internet, has another job for income, has no set prices, makes no false promises and refuses to help anyone that cannot be helped and even helps
for free sometimes, he will give you proof before taking money. He is a wonderful man and he was the only person who actually gave me real results. I really hope he doesn't mind me advertising his contact on the internet but I'm sure any help/ extra work will benefit him.contact him as nativedoctor101@live.com He travel sometimes.i cant give out his number cos he told me he don’t want to be disturbed by many people across the world..he said his email is okay and he’ will replied to any emails asap,love marriage,finance, job promotion ,lottery Voodoo,poker voodoo,golf Voodoo,Law & Court case Spells,money voodoo,weigh loss voodoo,any sicknesses voodoo,Trouble in marriage,HIV AIDS,it's all he does Hope this helps everyone that is in a desperate situation as I once was; I know how it feels to hold onto something and never have a chance to move on because of the false promises and then to feel trapped in wanting something
more.
