Good morning everyone! My father died Monday night in Houston TX. We are leaving shortly for Houston, the funeral will be tomorrow at 12:00. I would ask that you please pray for the funeral and graveside services. I will have an opportunity to share the gospel at both services...please pray for God to open a door for HIS Word and that family and friends would hear and be saved.
I must confess that I started to skip the reading for today so that I could pray and gather my thoughts and scriptures for tomorrow; however, I was prompted to do the reading. What do you think jumped out at me in Jeremiah? "I have commanded you to speak...Do not hold back a word. Perhaps they will listen and return. (Jeremiah 26:2-3)" What was my response...yes Father in heaven! Then in 2 Thess...pray for us that the Lord's message may spread rapidly and be honored, just as it was with you...may the Lord direct your hearts to God's love and Christ's endurance (2 Thess 3:1, 5).
Please pray that many would be called out of darkness into HIS marvelous light...pray that I would decrease and Christ would increase and that I would simply be an instrument in HIS hand...for HIS glory!
2 Thess 3:16 Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you.
love,
