Pray for Families (Charity and Patience)


Greetings Prayer Warriors,

As I contemplate family life, I have to smile at the Lord’s wisdom, love, and dare I say, sense of humor.  We are both blessed and stressed by family, but what would our life be like without them?  Families are always a blend of personalities and temperaments, some more pleasant than others, but being stretched in charity and patience is exactly what each of us needs to grow spiritually.   So next time a member of your family riles you up and pushes your buttons, respond with charity and patience, and then say a prayer of thanksgiving to the Lord for challenging you to grow in holiness.  Then say a prayer for each member of your family that they too may grow in holiness.

You have followed my teaching, way of life, purpose, faith, patience, love, endurance.  2 Timothy 3:10

Peace, Joy, and Love,
Janet
