THE PRAYER LINK – FRIDAY, AUG. 28

Today’s Scripture

“The Lord will keep you from all harm— he will watch over your life; the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.” Psalm 121:7-8

Prayer Focus

Today, let’s pray for our family, friends, and neighborhood. Think of how uniques each of our prayer lists will be. That’s why I urge you to keep a prayer list of your own.

Proverbs 18:24 NIV

“One who has unreliable friends soon comes to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.”

Research on Ruth

I have been doing some research on Ruth for Sunday School and the ladies’ Bible Study. Even though I have read the verses numerous times, I have picked up on new thoughts. You can never learn everything, even about a short book like Ruth. Keep on studying!
