I appreciate your exhortation.

And more so the spirit it appears to be given in.

Of course I’m leaning on God’s mercy and forgivness and wish all would avail themselves of such.

However, I’m responsible to my Lord and Savior and His Spirit to pray as led.

I also pray that He have His will in all such matters and in all such prayers.

I see prayer as a kind of . . . calling on, enlisting, God in our sphere . . . inviting His intervention, giving Him (in the face of satan’s-since-Adam’s fall-legal authority) request and permission as a human to intervene yet again in human affairs . . . I trust God to take of my prayers whatever He wishes and to ignore whatever He wishes. He knows that. I know that.

At some point, it doesn’t really matter what others know or think about my dialogues on such scores with God.

I do know that when Holy Spirit rises up within me with such declarations, prayers, assertions . . . God tends to do some very interesting things in response in such situations.

I figure it’s HIS RIGHT, being God Almighty and such.

I appreciate your exhortation.

Thank you. Perhaps you can return the favour when I'm next, shall we say, out of sorts?
