Where has the time gone, here it is 2014 and we have our 3 year old granddaughter's first photo on here! I have not put any of her infant photos on here, goes to show you the more children and grandchildren you have the less time you have to take care of photos. Maybe someday I'll add some more on here but I wanted to start out with all three of them together.
JoGoPray, my blog journal about prayer, life and family. Jo is my middle name, Go is the beginning of my last name, and Pray of course reminds me God wants conversation with us.

Love to pray....
A few
definitions of "Prayer":
·
To pray is to love God
Prayer is talking to God. Prayer is conversing with God...a
conversation with God; it is the conversational part of a love relationship
with God.
4 “…The Lord is our God, the Lord alone.[a] 5 And you
must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all
your soul, and all your strength. 6 And you
must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands”…. Deuteronomy 6:4-6 (NLT)
·
Prayer is the conversational part of the most
important love relationship in our lives - our relationship with the Father,
the Son and the Holy Spirit.
·
Prayer is not "saying a prayer" it
is about loving the one to whom we pray. It is not trying harder to pray but
rather becoming true lovers of God.
(I attended a prayer conference and some the above quotes are from Dave Butts of
Harvest Prayer Ministries his website address is www.harvestprayer.com ) Other
quotes are from me.
