KEEP
IN YOUR PRAYERS
those who are in situations of domestic violence: O Lord, look down from
heaven; behold, visit, and relieve all who are victims of abuse or
violence. Look upon them with the eyes
of Your mercy and give them comfort and sure confidence in You. Defend them from every danger to body and
soul and keep them in peace and safety.
We ask this in Jesus’ name. Amen. “Whoever
pursues righteousness and kindness will find life, righteousness, and honor.” Proverbs 21:21 (ESV)
STEWARDSHIP THOUGHT FOR THIS WEEK: Isaiah 51:6
“For the heavens vanish like smoke, the
earth will wear out like a garment..” The
things of this earth that hold our attention, that cause us worry, that tempt
us away from the Lord: they are all
passing away. They will vanish like a
garment. They are not for us to worry
over, but rather to use for the Lord’s purposes. The things of this world are not ends in and
of themselves, but only means to be used wisely by the children of the Kingdom
that has no end. TBLESSINGS ON YOUR WEEK! T
