Prayer Request

Prayer Request:

I have had trouble remembering things over the past month or so (dates, Sunday messages, things in class, etc...). So I have been asking for prayer to help me remember things. This morning God showed me that my memory is directly linked to my focus, and I have had a very hard time staying focused lately. While I was wondering why I lack focus God again showed me. He showed/reminded me that over the past few years I have let me mind wander.  Through this wandering I have build up this huge world in my head largely dealing with wealth, fame, fortune, and other unhealthy things.  Now I find that my mind constantly will go into this world. It is like this fantasy world has become real in my head and it seems to have become like a safe place.  I find myself in prayer, or in the Word and the next thing I know, I am in my little world and I have no idea how I got there. 

So I ask that you can pray for me as much as you can. I want this fake world gone. I don't want to use it as refuge. I find that this world is taking my focus off God.  I want to completely surrender my mind to God, but I can't seem to do that with this world there.  I can only do it with God's help. So please pray for me. Thank you.

  1. I can relate! So neat thst God revealed that to you! Now, you can examine your heart to see what "need" your fantasy world meets for you emotionally and then bring those false idols one by one to Jesus for forgiveness, healing and replacement with His gifts.
