Saturday

“Give ear to my words, O Lord,

consider my meditation.

Give heed to the voice of my cry,

my King and my God, for to You I will pray.”

~Psalm 5:1-2~

David’s sister, Bonnie, called with great news. She is cancer-free! She gives God credit for her successful treatment. Thank God for her good report and answered prayers.

Richard Dunn is home and resting well. Kathy said he was enjoying being at home so he could enjoy his children and grandchildren more. Pray for Richard and Kathy during these difficult times.

Kyle Brabham‘s doctor did not remove any staples yet. He said he will check again next Friday. The doctor did allow Kyle to begin wearing less of the head dressing. That will be a big relied in the August temperatures.

Kids on Mission Pray

August 22, 2008

“Let the little children come to Me, and don’t stop them, because the kingdom of God belongs to such as these,”

Luke 18:16b

GOD IS GOOD

My friend, FT, and I were sitting on the roof of my family’s house, watching the kids play in our front yard. She seemed really thoughtful so I ask her what was up. FT said, “I have not forgotten what you told me yesterday. It was really good.” I said, “It’s good because God is good.” I had told her the day before that God loves us no matter all the sin we do.

But, it’s like we are on one side of a big river and God’s on the other side. He made a bridge for us with the cross so that we could get to Him. All we have to do is pray and tell God that we believe that He sent His Son to die for us. And we want Him to be the Lord of our lives. Being a Christian doesn’t mean you don’t sin any more, but it means you can be forgiven for your sins. In the course of the conversation, FT said, “I know that if I died I would go to hell.”

She was quiet a lot that afternoon. I walked her home and told her I’d see her tomorrow. As I walked back, I asked that God would help her to understand all that we have talked about each time we’ve been together. Please pray for my friend, FT, that God would constantly be talking to her heart and she would come to Him. GLORIA, age 13 (West Africa)

When I was much younger, I loved to watch the children on Art Linkletter’s show, Kids Say the Darnness Things. Now, I realize the sincere prayer requests of MK’s is so much more important. Take time and reread these requests. Thank God for the maturity and the concerns of each one that is recorded here today. Add MK’s to your daily list of those for whom you pray daily.

Keep your eyes open for Fay, the tropical storm that has visited Florida and is headed west now.
