I came across "The Prayer of Jabez" in 2004 and learned that it was a very powerful prayer. In 2004, I was earnestly seeking for a new job and this was my prayer back then. And yes, I got the job I was praying for. I got in at Cypress. Looking back, I could say God really works in wonders and that I am glad He made me wait to get the the job that was for me.
Nine years later, I am still with Cypress and I am finding myself turning to "The Prayer of Jabez" again. I cannot disclose the details yet but I am up for "something". I needed to face that "something" this morning and I was really nervous and at the same time excited. I asked Naomi to pray for me and explained to her that Mommy would like to be a leader. Naomi asked Daddy, "Dad, are you a leader?" To which her Dad responded, "Yes." Then Naomi said, "Mommy isn't but she will be today!" Ahhhh... Awww... Sobrang na-touch ako. Such innocent remark but I felt Naomi's confidence in Mommy and her love for me. Shucks, kakaiba ka talaga anak!
Anyway, that something is "done" and I lift to You, O Lord, the results. Sorry if I thought about the prayer now that I have "something" again but I believe that You hear me. Your will be done. Amen.
