Pray for Families (The Christ in you)

Greetings Prayer Warriors,

You, who have been given the gift of faith, have a special calling.  Be bold in your faith and live your Christianity out loud. This does not mean “in your face” preachy Christianity, but rather exhibiting joy in your trials. It means not reacting to others, but rather listening with understanding while reproving inappropriate behavior, and then loving when it feels impossible to do so.  This can only be accomplished by letting go, and letting God.  It is He who hears and acts upon your prayers for family.

Brothers and sisters: I, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to live in a manner worthy of the call you have received, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another through love, striving to preserve the unity of the spirit through the bond of peace. Ephesians 4: 1-3

Preserve the bond of peace. Pray for the grace you need to grow in the virtues of humility, gentleness, patience, kindness, and charity so that your family will come to know Christ in a deeper way through you.

Peace, Joy, and Love,
Janet

Encourage prayer, which increases grace, which increases virtue. Pass it on!
