Do you ever feel like the Lord is talking specifically to you? Have you ever heard a "calling" from the God? Has that "still small voice" ever whispered in your ear? Well if you have, you know that it is God Almighty talking to you and if you smart, you'll tune into his voice and listen to what he has to say.
When my involvement in another Christian MS prayer group didn't work out because of conflicts with me freely posting about the benefits of CCSVI, I clearly felt the Lord telling me to start my own group, where we could talk about anything related to dealing with the symptoms of living with this nasty disease. If it can help others live a better life, keep the conversation flowing was the words He put on my heart.This verse kept popping up in my head from Isaiah 6:8 "Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?" And I said, "Here am I. Send me!" I kept hearing that song Here I am Lord in my head the entire week!
Here I am Lord song
I prayed about it that night, and the next day, and just knew the Lord was wanting me to move ahead and step out in faith and so I did.
I started The Master's Servants- Christian women living with MS facebook page and off we went. I made it a secret group, so we could pray openly without retribution from others. We have a few women who asked to make a closed group to keep prying eyes away because social media is so open now.
God talked,and I thankfully, I obeyed. The response has been amazing, and so far in just a week, we have almost 200 women that have joined and are unashamedly praying for each other. They are praying about their own daily challenges of living with MS, and the needs of their family members. It is a wonderful site to behold and I feel blessed by these strong women of the Lord.
Since I spend much time on the computer, God has been prompting me to take the group farther, so you'll probably see us on other social media sites and maybe even a website when I can get it up and running, Lord willing. He is putting all of these ideas into my head on how to help and pray for women with MS. Thank you Jesus for opening my eyes and calling me to do this. I just know that there are so many women suffering with this disease, and prayer helps so much when you are hurting.
When you listen to the Lord's call, and obey Him, He will bless you and open the doors of Heaven for you! I truly believe this and I know that He will continue to bless what we are doing through this prayerful group of women. Thank you Jesus!
If you hear that still small voice calling to you in the night, will you listen?
Here I am Lord, use me for your Good will!
My verse for today is above in red.
My prayer for today:
Thank you Lord Jesus for opening my eyes to the needs of these women, including myself, who are suffering with MS. Use this new group to uplift and encourage the ladies who are dealing with the daily challenges of MS along with living life. Help them to feel comfortable in laying their burdens down to you Lord. Encourage all of the ladies to make new friends and share their lives and their challenges each day.
Amen and Amen - Thank you Lord!
God has been blessing you and now you are blessings others. It is wonderful that you are listening and following what God tell you. I really like the song with that message.
ReplyDeleteI can only imagine how much this group of pray-ers will build one another up and give and receive what they need and when they need it. God Bless you as you begin this new journey...
God bless you and yours

Congratulations! Obeying the Lord's call offers greater blessings than anything else. And when He calls us to do something, it will always be way beyond our own abilities. Why? Because He wants us to depend solely on Him!

This design is steller! You obviously know how to keep a reader amused.
ReplyDeleteBetween your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well,
almost...HaHa!) Fantastic job. I really loved what you had to say, and
more than that, how you presented it. Too cool!
