Pray




There are so many areas where our prayers are needed, take some time to pray today




For our country, its leaders, and its direction


For Haiti for the people, the destruction, the help that is needed and for the many children who are now trapped in the country who were waiting to be adopted.


For missionaries who were and are in Haiti


For our troops in harms way in our world




For families torn by multiple addictions which create distance instead of love.


For ourselves and our commitment to doing what is right




For today, God desires that we bow our heads and lift our voices for the multitude of injustices in our world.




God, there is no way that we can even begin to pray for the injustice in our land and in our world. Give us the words to pray and the desire to come to you with our heart-felt needs. Keep us focused on the others in our world and less on ourselves. Humble us, give us a submissive spirit, and drench our world with your presence. In your Son's name, AMEN
