For to us a child is born, to us a son is given;
and the government shall be upon his shoulder,
and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor,
Mighty God,
Everlasting Father,
Prince of Peace
(Isaiah 9:6, ESV).
Pray for Sim Bankston of Arcola who required emergency surgery yesterday, but is doing well now that the surgery is completed.
Andy Taylor is home. What a great Christmas blessing after two weeks in the hospital and rehab.
Pray for all the others who have been sick. Some are home, but others or not.
PRAYER FOCUS: Pray for those who will be traveling to be with family members for the holidays. This year, traveling may be mor difficult because of the cold weather that is covering much of our country.
I would also like to add a second group – Those who will be on standby at fire departments, hospitals, etc. to take care of the needs of people during the weather emergency we are facing.
