Mountains Needing Grace

I lay in bed early this morning with two things heavy on my mind, so heavy that they seemed like mountains.

I think I have been having a crisis of faith this winter or maybe it's that my faith is going through some sort of metamorphosis/transition.

I didn't know how to pray this morning or even how to think.

Two thoughts drifted from my spirit.


1. Eucharisteo (giving of thanks) always precedes the miracle. I began to give thanks.

Thank you, Lord for my husband's strength to go to work every day and for the work to go to.
Thank you for my home. Thank you for the sunshine this morning...

2. The verse from Zechariah that says to speak, "Grace , Grace to the mountain"
I spoke Grace over my mountains this morning.

Lord, thank you for speaking Grace over my life today, over my family...

Keep praying! God knows your heart! Even when the words can't come out...

One thing He hears is the cries of a thankful heart! I was so moved by your post today. Speaking grace over your mountains. . . what music that must have been to the Father's heart! Thank you for this today. I'm looking up that verse in Zechariah and claiming it for myself!

I was really just searching for a good pic on "grace through faith" when this popped up in my search. Perhaps it was just so I could tell you that even though it has apparently been many months since you posted this, let me suggest you do 2 things: every morning declare over yourself "I am the righteousness of God in Christ!" (1 Corin. 1:30) and secondly go to youtube and find the teachings of Joseph Prince -- you will be transformed... feel free to email me if you want to discuss or know more about what I've learned (a 55 year old Christian woman who has finally learned how much God values me - and every believer!)
