that prayer card

 


Do not be afraid, for the Lord our God will be with you!


I am praying that whatever may come your way, you would know… and feel the height and depth and width and never ending love of God!


May the Lord bless you and keep you.  May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious to you!  May the Lord place His presence upon you and give you peace! …


Those three things are on a card that sits on my desk, right in front of my computer.  I received this card at the Raceway Ministries conference this past January, and it has been a reminder of so much.  I am grateful.  


God intends and plans things in our lives.  He actually plans the things of our lives, and it is good for us to trust God.  That is why I need, and you need, reminders like this card so often.


Earlier this week I was reading my daily Scripture and came across the prayer that is on the card.  It reminded me of His presence, His goodness and so much more.  May we lean on what we know about God to be true.  He is true.  He is good.


Be reminded and believe it!


Isaiah 41:10  NLT  

Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God.  I will strengthen you and help you.  I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.


Ephesians 3:18  NLT  

And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. 


Numbers 6:24-26  NLT  

“‘“The Lord bless you and keep you; 25 the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; 26 the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.”’

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns.  One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns.  When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.  Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns.  Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved.  Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?"  Beverly said, "Why yes I do."  Edith said, "Well, what do you ...

wash feet, sharing hope

  John 13:4-5,14 NLT  So he got up from the table, took off his robe, wrapped a towel around his waist, 5 and poured water into a basin. Then he began to wash the disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel he had around him… 14 And since I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other’s feet. Jesus set the example we follow.  He served.  He valued and gave value to others.  That is why we choose to serve. For 18 years our church has shared an outreach called back2school, and for 16 of those years we have chosen to give students brand new shoes and socks as well as washing their feet.  It is one of the most important parts of this event. Washing feet is a humbling experience where both the give and the receiver learn how to share some moments that might change their lives.  Jesus said we should do this.  See the verse above.  Follow His example, do what He did, and give far more than you will ever know....
