Greetings Prayer Warriors,
It is often distressful when a family member wanders away
from the Lord or perhaps has never known the Lord. One wants to scream out, “You don’t know what
you’re missing!” but refrains since who has the words to truly describe the transformative
effects of the Spirit? Who can describe
with words the goodness of the Lord?
Peace
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the
world gives do I give it to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid. John 14:27
Love and Mercy
O Israel, hope in the LORD! For
with the LORD there is steadfast love, and with him is plenteous
redemption. Psalm 130: 7
Joy
Those to whom God gives riches and property, and grants
power to partake of them, so that they receive their lot and find joy in the
fruits of their toil: This is a gift from God. For they will hardly dwell on the
shortness of life, because God lets them busy themselves with the joy of their
heart. Ecclesiastes 5: 18-19
Hope
Therefore, we are not discouraged; rather, although our
outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For
this momentary light affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory
beyond all comparison. Corinthians 4: 16-17
Faith in Love
We have come to know and to
believe in the love God has for us. God
is love, and whoever remains in love remains in God and God in him. 1 John 4:16
For from him and through him
and for him are all things. To him be glory forever. Amen. Romans 11:36
Invite a wandering
family member to spend time with you.
May your non-verbal witness and silent prayer for family be the spark that ignites.
Peace, Joy, and
Love,
Janet
Share the hope
that is in you. Pass it on.
