Praying For More...

So many difficult situations are happening around us lately, and I can only say, It is well with my soul.

Visiting hospitalized friends and neighbors, I am prayerful for the healing that they need so desperately, and even more prayerful for the salvation that comes from repentance.

Every day, I thank the Lord for giving me breath and another day to serve Him here on earth. The older I get, the more I consider each day a gift. It's only by His grace we can accomplish anything for the kingdom.

I love the verse Philippians 1:6,
".. being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ..."

The Lord is working in each of us, to do His will and to use our lives for His glory.

We just need to be willing to be used. If our hearts are for Him, He can and will use us in the lives of those in our sphere of influence.

I pray He will direct my steps and lead me to those who need to hear the truth. I pray He gives me boldness like never before to love the unlovely and share the gospel with the lost and hurting. And I pray the same for you, reading this now.

May God use each of us to be the hands and feet of Jesus Christ for this broken and hurting generation. People are looking for answers, and Jesus IS the answer.

God bless you as you put Him first in your life today.

By His grace,

Toni
