A PRAYER IN THE SUNSHINE

This post by kathylarkman was originally published at GRACE PLACE

Hi sisters!
I imagine that, like me, you are now inundated with social media resources. This of course is a good thing, given our current crisis.

At the same time, I want to encourage you to proactively, intentionally, take time out from EVERYTHING and to talk to our Creator God everyday at some point….  I encourage you to sit quietly in the sunshine (those with children- while they are occupied or they are having a rest.) Enjoy the nature of birds, breeze, spring flowers. God in his kindness, has given us these days of beautiful temperature and sunshine to help us in our confinement.

Yes, this is a crazy time, but I believe that God is drawing us to Him like never before. This is the perfect time to pray continually for each other with what we have been studying in Colossians 2:6-7:

Our Lord God, 
and now as we have accepted Jesus Christ as our Lord, help us to continue to follow You. Cause our roots to grow down into You, and our lives to be built up only in You. You promised us that as we follow you in this way, that our faith will grow strong in the truth that we were taught and that we would overflow with thankfulness. Make it so dear Lord. You are God. We know that we can trust you and You are working out your purposes in our world, in our community, in our church, in our families, and each of us individually through this crisis. Help us to honour you and to reflect Jesus. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

If we pray this from our hearts to God for each other, He will answer as we cling to Him! He will fill us with His peace, His freedom, His enabling.

Know that you are loved and prayed for. Know that nothing is wasted in God’s economy! If you need us, our team is available to you for support and prayer. Contact us on this website.
