PRAYER FOCUS

Today, let’s focus on something that needs to be done – at home, at church, at work, in the community. Then, focus on not who, but on you! Many times we look around us for others to step up when it need to be a case of looking within ourselves and doing something ourselves, not waiting for others.

HURRICANE IDALIA

It certainly is nice to be a part of groups who focus on helping others in times of great need – Southern Baptists and Samaritan’s Purse. Large, well organized, and experienced goes a long ways in helping to accomplish much where there is a great need and often short-notice of the help that is needed. Be a part of helping others in small, local needs and large, international needs. You cannot be a part of every helpful group, so choose carefully.

THANKFULNESS

It is not necessary to wait until Thanksgiving to be thankful. I am especially thankful for today’s change in the weather. The current temperature of 75 degrees and a 50% chance of rain are encouraging. You probably are thankful too. What are you thankful for today?
