FRIDAY

But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.

II Corinthians 12:9

Prayer Focus

Today, let’s focus our prayers on people who have to make difficult choices. I have heard several people who had to choose not to purchase medicine they needed because the money was needed to purchase food, gasoline, or other items they thought they had to have. Pray people don’t have to make such decisions.
