Dialogues with God

A Quick Review of Frances Roberts' Devotional

Stacy Padula
I have been so blessed by Frances J. Roberts' devotional books: Come Away My Beloved, Make Haste My Beloved, and Dialogues With God. Today I felt compelled to share a part of Dialogues With God with you all. In Dialogues With God the author writes a prayer to God using God's word and then a response, also using God's word.

In part of today's prayer it said, "Sit Thou upon the throne of my heart and rule my affections; for to do Thy will is my supreme desire and in keeping Thy commandments delights my soul." This really blew me away because I have been praying a very similar request with a few of my beloved sisters.

In part of today's response it said, "Thou shalt walk upon high places because of the Lord thy God, for in Him is might and power and He will perfect that which concerneth thee. Yea, He will keep thee in all thy way." What a comforting promise. He will perfect what concerns me. He will perfect what concerns you. When we give our burdens to Him and step out of the way, He goes to work on our behalf. How wonderful. May this encourage you in your walks with our precious Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
