Pray for Families (Summer Sojourns)

Greetings Prayer Warriors, 

 

Summer is in full swing and I pray that your families will be richly blessed! Whether you take off on mini-weekenders or longer sojourns, now is the time to reconnect with your loved ones.  Turn off all media, eat, love, play, and PRAY!

 

Who doesn’t find joy in food?  Make sure you are dining together as a family, for the table is a place to build camaraderie.  Don’t forget to begin your meal with a blessing, as it may be the only prayer some family members pray! 

 

A feast is made for merriment and wine gives joy to the living. 

Ecclesiastes 10:19

 

Does anyone every complain of too much love?  Express what you love about each family member, praying that you will see them as God sees them, His beloved masterpieces

 

Pleasing words are a honeycomb, sweet to the taste and invigorating to the bones. Proverbs 16:24

 

Engage in a fun activity be it a walk, hike, or good card game. Who has time to worry or argue when engaged in play? Exercise helps elevate endorphins, and when you feel good, don’t you want to praise God?

 

The LORD has done great things for us; Oh, how happy we were! 

Psalms 126:3

 

Pray together and pray for the needs of each member of your family.  Then take some quiet time t­­­o pray, not forgetting to pray for your prayer warrior family as well.  

 

When you pray, go to your inner room, close the door, and pray to your Father in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will repay you. Matthew 6:6

 

Peace, Joy, and Love,

Janet

 

A summer attitude brings about gratitude! Pass it on!
