Good morning, beloved,

I can be a loud Mama. Can be. Ahem. Last night, I began to lose my voice and we all were laughing at how crazy my voice sounded. I could only squeak and whisper. My poor husband was across the room reading to us all and thought I was upset. The kids reassured Joshua and watched me. What next would I do?

I never realize how much I need and use my voice until when I lose it, when it is gone. This morning, my voice is gravelly but I am fine. I am beginning to get my routine back and with it comes what am I going to do with the voice, the day God has given me? What are you going to do with your day?

Even if you are home, alone, what could your day become? Remember the people who have asked for prayer? I don’t need to tell you that you are never alone. Never. Use your voice to worship, to lift up others. For you and I both realize, in this moment, how praising and praying can take the focus off our on worries and fears.

Psalm 150:6 Let everything that breathes praise the Lord. Praise the Lord!

Paul constantly prayed for his beloved.

2 Thessalonians 111 ·That is why [To that end; In this regard] we always pray for you, asking our God to ·help you live the kind of life he called you to live [make/consider you worthy of his calling]. We pray that with his power God will ·help you do the good things you want [L fulfill every desire for goodness] and ·perform the works that come from your [L every work of] faith. 12 We pray all this so that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ will ·have glory [be glorified] in you, and you ·will have glory in him [L in him]. That glory comes from the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

May we, as God places beloved on our minds, be praying for His beloved. May we be instruments for His church wherever we may be today.

Psalm 100:Come into his ·city [L gates] with songs of thanksgiving

    and into his courtyards with songs of praise.
·Thank [Praise] him and ·praise [bless] his name.

Prayer for your Pastor today:

Pray that your pastor will counsel and teach with discernment through the wise use of Scripture and faith in God’s power to work. Pray that he will be protected from the effects of sinful or negative attitudes that he encounters as he counsels. (Mal. 2:7; James 1:5-6; John 17:15)

Prayer for your Pastor’s wife:

Pray that your pastor’s wife will counsel and teach with discernment through the wise use of Scripture and faith in God’s power. (Ps. 119:99; James 1:5-6) Revive Our Hearts

A new week. A new start. I begin my 25 point manifesto again!!

Pray on. Pray on.
