and strength to the powerless.

They will run and not grow weary.
They will walk and not faint.

No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us.

And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from Gods love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrownot even the powers of hell can separate us from Gods love. No power in the sky above or in the earth belowindeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.

The promises of God are powerful and awesome to grasp. I pray that these scriptures about Gods promises were helpful to you today.

I'm afraid, I look at how things are lining up in this world, in this country, and i am afraid

me too. I feel as though I have suffered a great loss; my heart is heavy and I am so sad.

We need your prayers today. There have been a lot of burglaries in our community. We just ask that God enlighten those individuals who are doing wrong, and to persecute their hearts for their wrong doing. We pray that he will protect us, our family, our friends, and our church from these blasphemous acts.

My friend passed away yesterday. But I am not saddened because I know where she is at. She is with our God. Please pray for the family in this time....

 

[Denim Deb]

Will do. Does the family know the Lord as well?

If you don't mind another joining the group and asking for prayers. Mine are pretty simple. I am trying to hand God my fears and am struggling. Some days its easy and some days I am defeated. I woke early for prayer and meditation hoping that in the stillness of the morning I would find peace.

 

[BarredBuff]

Yes they know the Lord.

Welcome! We'll be praying for your request as well.

 

[Denim Deb]

Heather, we all struggle w/that. I know how difficult that can be. I'll be praying for you.

I have been listening to Laura Story a ton, especially Grace. I know we are to let go of our worries and hand them over. Wow that is so hard. I can read and meditate on verses that tell me I should and I can but it seems a HUGE leap to do so. Like trying to jump over a mountain. Thank goodness he is patient and forgiving. I keep missing that mountain top and tumbling right back to where I started.
