For us, our church communtiy and beyond.
We pray for grace and truth. Truth to guide us in our choices. Truth to bring light to the darkness. Grace to cover us as we move boldly ahead.
For those who are frustrated, know that "The anger of man does not acheive the righteousness of God." We pray that the 'throwing of stones' would cease.
We pray for repentance and a renewed understanding of morality. That we may all search our hearts, question our motives and lay them at the cross. No agendas. That God will bring conviction. Accontability. That we will repent, turn around and head the other way. We pray that we will all know the fear of the Lord. That we will not forget that He is the one and only all-powerful, righteous God and ultimatly our only judge.
We pray for peace and discernment.
That we will discern right from wrong and as His children we will choose to walk on paths of righteousness. That we will experience His everlasting peace. Only then can we move forward. Boldly......yet peacefully. For blessed are the peacemakers, they will be called the children of God.
We pray for restoration. Restoration for the church and restoration in families and marriages. This one is very close to our heart.
We pray for all who are hurting. May God hold all of us in His arms and there may we find comfort. No human can ever fill that need.
May God 'show up' to each and everyone of us this year.
