Pray.
So often we forget that the even the simplest things are power-ful. Wake up call. I have been forgetting my brothers and sister. I live comfortable, some days more than others, maybe I have some challenging days but still, comfortabley. It is not until I am in distress that I begin thinking of my brothers and sister right? Maybe to compare.
This Sunday I wanted to challenge and call all my brothers and sisters back at home, or where ever you are to pray for the Middle Eastern countries and in Saudi Arabia. For Egypt and Siria. For Jordan and Jerusalem.
Please. Pray.
It is so strange, as I looked through an old note book this morning ( of which I have many that I do not usually re-read) I found a verse that I found this:
All this I have told you so that you will not go astray. They will put you out of the synagogue, in fact a time is comming when anyone who kills you will think he is offering a service to God". Intense right? It hit me this morning because it is so true. That is why we pray. We need to pray for out brothers and sisters who are fighting the good fight, but are far from us. Who are enduring trials, to reap a greater benefit, God's glory and the salvation of hearts, even hearts of thier persecutors.
Pray for strength and for grace to over flow!
Hopeful Sunday!
