You Raise Me Up

In prayer we must lay before Him what is in us, not what ought to be in us. - C. S. Lewis

Excerpts from The Bible Promise Book for Women:

• Perseverance - You've tried everything to no avail.  Now what? ... The Lord tells us that after we've done everything we know to do, and have said everything we know to say, to stand. ... The same holds true for every area of our lives.  "You may have to fight a battle more than once to win it." - Margaret Thatcher
• Seeking God - ... God isn't lost - we are.  Our search for Him begins when we realize that. ... God desires for us to seek Him because we yearn to know Him. 

 Hebrews 3:14 (NIV) We have come to share in Christ if we hold firmly till the end the confidence we had at first.

Ephesians 6:13 (NKJV) Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

I Chronicles 16:11 (NIV) Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always.

This is what God has been bringing to me the past 24 hours.  I'm not sure how to pull it all together, but would love to hear your thoughts.
