John 15:7

Hello,
I am really excited I leave in about 3 days to see my cousins and go to an incredible conference , to be totally devoted to my lord(Not that I'm not already,Ha ha).Anyways I don't remember when exactly but was looking up some verses in my bible and I came across john 15:7 "If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you wish and it will be done for you." Now at first I figured really great , "Lord I would like a sewing machine, a new camera battery and some money". So after that I waited and waited but nothing happened . so I read the verse again and again. Suddenly it came to me, Tory, when the Lord says that verse you can not just expect him to give exactly what you ask for the way you asked for it you must pray for it through Gods Will . Then you shall receive what you ask for in the lords time and his way. Ladies, This showed me that sometimes we may ask for things but we must also know that when we ask the lord them that sometimes we do not get what in ways we would expect.Well I hope that encourages and helps those of you that are like me know that when we ask the Lord for the things we need or desire that he will give discernment and patience to wait for his will to be done. I hope you have a blessed week. Tory

The Lords wonderous works

Well Hello ,
I am really excited today . The Lord has just been so good to me and has answer all of my prayers exactly the way I have been praying for them to be answered. I can't even begin to explain how wonderful and powerful the Lord is. This year has been a pretty ruff year .My family and I have had a lot of trials and tribulations that we've had to overcome and we definitely would not have even began to even have overcome our troubles if it was for the lords wonderful works.One of my prayers this year was that I would be able to go and see my family in Georgia so I talked to my mom about it and next thing I know I am leaving in may.Another one is I was recently thinking about all my family and friends and how they are all doing and what not so I decided it was time for me to start writing letters again . So one of the letters was to one of my best friends who lives in N.C. and we met at an ATI Conference in Tennessee and, Anyways I wrote a letter to her and asked if she was going to the ATI conference this year and she said yes and we were both so happy about that because we haven't seen each other in about two years, so it was great to hear that. Anyways those are just two of the many wonderful works that the lord has done for me to prove that he lives and is there for m no matter what. I hope this really touches you and shows you that know matter what you have done or are going through you can pray about it and that prayer will be answered even though sometimes not the way you expect it to be . Keep believing in him!!!
