praise journal

It's been a while since I've shared from my praise journal.  I haven't been doing much journaling lately because when I stay with one thing too long I suffer from burn-out.  I have to lay one activity down and go to another.  Things always cycle around and I'll be back to journaling one day soon.


Prayer:
True prayer is a spontaneous outpouring of honesty and need from the soul's foundation.  In calm times, we say a prayer.  In desperate times, we truly pray.
David Jeremiah

Humble:
A humble person is not one who thinks little of himself, hangs his head, and says, "I'm nothing."  Rather, he is one who depends wholly on the Lord for everything in every circumstance.
David Wilkerson

Worry:
There's absolutely nothing you're tempted to worry about that you won't be better off talking to God about instead.
Greg Laurie

Blessed:
God's blessings are dispersed according to the riches of His grace, not according the depth of our faith.
Max Lucado
