All the power of God (the width, the length, the hight, the depth) of His love is ours.... Out of His glorious riches He strengthens us. He is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine....but so often we do not ask. Ask with me for the following today: (1) a much needed volunteer to help with home schooling material distribution (can be time consuming and complicated job). Those on the field are dependent on these materials to educate their children; (2) for materials that are now in a seaport needing only a sheet of paper to release them from customs...could take months...but we can ask God to release them tomorrow; (3) for perfect flying weather for the remaining team members. They should fly out this Thursday and arrive here late Friday afternoon. They have only one hour between landing in Washington, D.C., and taking off for SA. They must leave Charlotte on time. We were 40 minutes late leaving Charlotte for Atlanta, but we had a three hour layover. If they miss their flight, they will have a 12 hour layover in Washington; (4) Pray for continued good health for all of us; (5) Pray that each one of us will make a difference in the lives of those we meet in Christ. It is so hard not to get caught up in the business of business; (6) Pray that we stay focused on Christ's purpose for each. T/K are gracious hosts. Pray that they will receive encouragement and spiritual renewal through fellowship with the team. They have worked so hard to get all that is needed done and in time; (7) Pray for warmer night time temperatures for next week. It is spring during the day but still winter at night...at least for this southern girl. Just thought on this last one...Maybe not so much...the snakes here where we will be are poisonous and deadly very quickly, so for me and LP pray that there will be NO SNAKES. It is totally dark by 6:00 PM and we can't take our showers until after 8:00 PM. We won't be abel to see beyond our small flashlights. The path way is so narrow only one at a time can walk. Thank you for your prayers. I know for a fact that God is listening.
Hi Jo, trying for the third time to comment on blog. Love the script. Have already shared some of these requests with Tina, Brent, Doris L. I'm taking notes to share with church Wed.night. I told Tina to read your blog too. Benny and I are praying that God has already opened the customs eyes, and the materials are waiting to go. We started today praying for the snakes to be gone from the area that y'all will be staying. That none will be seen. We're excited Jo, about what God is going to do for each of you during these days. He's going to show you things that you never dreamed of before. Jer. 33:3. We're claiming that verse for you and the others. We're praying for your health daily, and God hasn't let me forget, because I'm having a terrible time with my sinus's. I was so thrilled when you popped up on my chat in the night here. That was what I needed to really make me realize how much we need to be praying for you and each team member, but, even more for T/K and their ministry there. Love you sister in Christ,friend. Joan Davis <><
ReplyDeleteWonderful post Ms. Allen especially since our prays need to be specific. I will do my best to remember the needs. For your sake I would like to mention that snakes don't like the cold. You mentioned that it is cold at night. Your path to the shower is clear of any snakes. Rest easy, God took care of that one a long time ago. :) I love you!
