Intercessors,
All you saints! Sing your hearts out to God! Thank him to his face!
He gets angry once in a while, but across a lifetime there is only love. The nights of crying your eyes out give way to days of laughter. ...
You did it: you changed wild lament into whirling dance; You ripped off my black mourning band and decked me with wildflowers.
I’m about to burst with song; I can’t keep quiet about you. God, my God, I can’t thank you enough. Psalm 30:5-6, 11-12
Do you ever sit in awe and wonder at the majesty of God? Consider the myriad of galaxies, each one made up of billions of stars. Even our own sun almost 10,000 degrees Farenheit and God breathed it from his mouth. AWESOME! Do you ever contemplate the mystery of the cross? How does He love us, so? Why would He send His son to die? Would you or would I send our son or daughter to die for another? Maybe for a friend, but for an enemy? AMAZING! Do these thoughts ever make you, like David, burst into song? I am in awe when I consider all the works of His Hands!
It is incredibly challenging to show God to our kids in the midst of their circumstances. All of us here have a deep desire to lead each one of our kids first to a saving knowledge of Jesus and then to disciple them in His Life. Please pray that we are able to reach beyond their hurt and into their lives.
Remember each of our kids - Matt, Christian, Erika, Jessyca, Brittany, Julie, Marissa, Javon, Justin, Anna, Stevie, & Hunter
| Christian, baby Brighton, and Matt |
Christian starting college.
Matt will be leaving us this month.
Erika returned home earlier this month.
Jessyca is working hard with Stargazer, her mustang.
Brittany is a senior this year. She will be in a work/study program this fall. She will graduate in December.
Julie would trust God with her emotions and her future.
Marissa is constantly challenged to stand-up for Christ, because she is very spiritually motivated. But like most of us she has some growing to do.
Anna would come to know Jesus and begin to trust the staff here.
Javon would come to know Jesus and trust Him with his anger.
Justin would begin to trust Jesus and operate within his declaration of faith.
Stevie would come to know Jesus and begin to heal from the hurts of his past.
Hunter will learn to become a man of God and will learn to lean on His Savior, Jesus Christ.
We have included a sentence about each of our kids so you be able to better pray for each one. We hope this helps.
One More Thing, but it is very important. . . This is typically our slowest time of year financially. We ask that you pray, not just for our finances, but more importantly for us, the staff.
PRAY:
That we will all see where we need to make corrections in our attitudes toward one another, in our use of resources, and in our individual relationships with God and His Son, Jesus.
That we will seek to know Him and trust Him only, during this time of austerity. Thank You!
Your friend,
Dwayne
