journal 1v

"I have set watchmen upon your walls, O Jerusalem, which shall never hold thier peace day nor night: ye that make mention of the Lord, keep not silence,
And give him no rest, till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth."
Isaiah 62:6-7

Well, there is a movement across the globe called 24-7. It is prayer constantly like at Herrnhut years ago. Non-stop prayer. I want part of this. They have places called the boiler room where people come and get 'hot' for God. I am beginning to think that the almighty God gave us more than a true/false strategy. We do not just say God I will follow you and then expect Him to walk our feet and talk with our mouths while we sit and wait for Him to do something. I want to do what He wants but He also wants to be our friend. Can you imagine being friends with the Souvern Saviour? Wow! This is a lot to comprehend.God wants us to ask for protection and things that will bring glory to His nae. I know His responce is awsome but how? I want to listen to the Holy Spirits leadings. I read taht to learn to pray you must pray. I am learning slowly. I have never heard of anyone under the age of 19 who had such a desire. I am 17. I canot understand large words and sometimes I do not know what words in the Bible mean. it is hard to learn with such a limited vocabulary. I supose I need a dictionary beside me everytime I read. It is hard to get into anything then. I do not want more knowlege but I want to know what I am reading. I feel so stupid when reading books with really big words. I want to be part of 24-7. God help me get a group here who would. I have a need to know you closer but to do this I need to know other Christians as well. Help me to do this. Give me the courage to approch people to talk about you. Help me have an overnight prayer meeting. I never act on these impulses but each one has more strength than the alst. Show me what you want with me. I cannot wait until next year where my entire year is devoted to serving you. I want to be like that guy at NYC. I want to shine your glory. I have seen a guy who is still in school shine. Let me get close enough to you so people can see on me that you are the one true God. I cannot wait for my next step. Believe, trust, surrender and now intercession. Oh, God, this is so exciting serving you. I love you. Thank-you for my dear Grandma. I have something in common with her. That is why I am glad you decided that I should not have a boyfriend. I like to have that connection with my grandma. You are so smart. I love that no matter what happens, it will all work for the greater good. I love you with all my heart. You are the one true God and I want to proclaim it acrosee the nations. God, I want Morden to know you. I want Manitoba to know you. I want Canada to know you. I want to world to know you. My hands are yours. Maybe adults would know more if I just asked.
With all my heart, Amen
And God please show a friend your glory. He would be passionate about you and he is such a charmer. He would be good for your mission. Please show him your glory.Amen
