Prayer Patrols

After going to the Northern Congress of the Salvation Army in September I got chatting to someone re prayer patrols in the Newcastle Area - after a long chat I said to the volunteer that I would pray for them and for more recruits to come along.

Since I have been ill I have been doing a lot of thinking and this is something that I feel that I could be involved with in my local area. Please pray about this and whether its what God would have me do

Thank you

I haven't been able to blog for a while partly due to just being so busy with one thing and another - but over recent days I have been unwell with a cold/flu bug which has caused me to STOP, and although I dislike being unwell and unable to get out of the house I have time to relax.

On wednesday morning I felt prompted to go to a Praise and Worship Meeting in Staple Hill - I wasn't going to go as really wanted to get the house cleaned however God had other ideas and I thought that if there was room in a car for me then I would go and gosh was I blessed and challenged - God is so powerful and mighty and moves me so much that I know that God has planned what I will do before I even know what it is. I am attending a "Design For Life" course at Sunbury Court this next weekend and it is my prayer that God will direct and guide my life. Sometimes I do not feel that my occupation is going right and keep having doors shut in my face but I do pray that at somepoint soon the door will open and not shut but its only through God's guidance that this is going to happen.
I was listening to a track of a new CD and it has these words:-
Speak O Lord, as we come to You
To recieve the food of Your Holy Word.
Take your truth,; plant it deep in us;
Shape and fashion us in Your likeness,
That the light of Christ might be seen today
In our acts of love and our deeds of faith.
Speak O Lord, and fulfil in us
All Your purposes for Your glory
