Prayer Request

Please pray for safety and divine opportunities for my daughter, Maggie, and Renee as they drive to Omaha to share God’s salvation message with a refugee group. This is a wonderful opportunity for Maggie, but she will definitely be out of her comfort zone. They leave on Monday.

When we moved into this house, Brooke, who lived here before us, and had just left for Costa Rica, left 3 sticky notes on the bathroom mirror. One said, "I waited patiently for the Lord, and He turned to me and heard my cry for help." (Psalm40:1) Another said, "The one who lives under the protection of the Most High dwells in the shadow of the Almighty." (Psalm 91:1) The third said, "Rest in God alone, my soul, for my hope comes from Him. (Psalm 62:5) Those have become special verses to me. God is faithful and has provided for our every need as we have waited. "If the Lord had not been on our side-let Israel say-If the Lord had not been on our side when men attacked us, then they would have swallowed us alive in their burning anger against us. Then the waters would have engulfed us; the torrent would have swept over us; the raging waters would have swept over us. Praise the Lord, who has not let us be ripped apart by their teeth. We have escaped like a bird from the hunter's net; the net is torn, and we have escaped. Our help is in the name of the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth." (Psalm 124:1-8)
Please pray that anything left to be accomplished will be accomplished, that any obstacles will be removed, and that God will release us to go.
